He’s a singer, dancer, and the youngest member of the award-winning K-pop group, BTS. ARMYs also know Jungkook as the “Golden Maknae” of the boy band. The artist got this nickname for being talented at, well, everything. 

Jungkook sometimes posts videos of himself boxing with a trainer to Twitter. He revealed on a separate occasion that he’s improving his English skills.

This K-pop group initially planned on embarking on their Map of the Soul world tour during 2020. However, due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, these artists spent time picking up new hobbies. 

For Jungkook, that meant painting and sharing his creations with BTS fans on social media platforms like Twitter. During an interview with Weverse Magazine, Jungkook elaborated on some of his recent hobbies. 

“I think I’m getting better overall, little by little,” Jungkook said. “My vocals are where I’ve definitely improved lately. And bowling! I learn how to paint by watching videos on YouTube. I think I’m good at picking up skills by emulating others.”

“I’m actually not good at learning things,” he continued. “I just like to do what I like to do, and I naturally learn from the people around me, I guess. And I think the things I really want to learn are still the same: singing, English, exercise.”
