Jungkook is a singer, songwriter and record producer and 1/7 of the biggest band in the world and K-Pop superstar, BTS.
His role in the band is as a main vocalist, as well as a dancer (as they all are) and at 23-years-old is the youngest member of the group.
Jungkook stands at 5ft 8 inches.
After the band's break in 2019 when Jungkook returned onto the scene, fans noticed his fans were covered in ink- and when it didn't disappear, quickly realised he'd had some permanent tattoos done.
With 'army' written across his knuckles, the name of their fandom, as well as the letter 'J', a love heart, and has reportedly added even further to the collection with a skeleton and Nirvana lyrics that read 'Stay Away.'

The band have been around since 2012, have nine studio albums worth of music and constantly sell out stadiums in minutes around the world, so unsurprisingly, they've made some serious cash.
Celebrity Net Worth puts the individual members net worths at £6 million, before each member was gifted shared in their label Big Hit worth a reported $8 million.
So, they are all multi millionaires before the age of 30.
This makes them the richest K-Pop band in South Korea, and despite this eye watering wealth, they remain seriously humble and down to earth!
