Jungkook, Live While on Vacation Goes Viral… Highest Views in Weverse History

The live broadcast conducted by Jungkook of the group BTS while on vacation recorded 20.2 million cumulative real-time views. This is the highest number since the launch of the global super fan platform Weverse in 2019.

Jungkook started a live broadcast at 11:39 PM on the 18th. He said, “I checked and heard that I could (live), so I turned on Weverse during my vacation today. I really missed you, and I’m nervous because it’s been so long.” He started by greeting his fans.

Jungkook recently introduced the interior of the house he moved into along with his current status. He continued, “I thought I wanted to do a live show during this vacation, so I prepared in advance. I ran every day and also did weight training.”

After that, Jungkook responded to fans' comment requests and gifted them with around 30 songs. He started with Taeyeon's "To. X" followed by Block B's "Where Are You." After that, he sang Rosé's "APT." and Ailitt's "Magnetic" at fans' requests, and then showed his affection for "Big Bang seniors" by singing G-Dragon's "Niliria (G-Dragon Ver.)" and "Who You?"

In particular, they showed off the strong friendship between the members by performing Jin's recently released 'I Will Be There' and V's digital single 'Winter Ahead (with PARK HYO SHIN)'.

The latter half of the live was filled with his own songs. He passionately sang seven songs including the title song 'Standing Still to You' from his solo album 'Golden' released last year and his solo single '3D (feat. Jack Harlow)'. He then finished the live by humming 'Don't Go' by Skrillex, Justin Bieber, and Don Tolliver. Jungkook said, "I had so much fun today. I hope you all are doing well. I'll practice more and come back. I'm sad to leave, but I'll come back again," expressing his love to his fans until the end.

After the broadcast ended that day, hashtags related to Jungkook and the titles of the songs he sang live swept the top ranks of X (formerly Twitter) real-time trends.

In particular, as of 1 PM on the 19th, this video received a whopping 292 million hearts. Jungkook, who set a record for the most viewers last year with a personal live stream of over 16 million real-time cumulative views, has surpassed his own record once again. Jungkook once again showed off his irreplaceable influence with this personal broadcast.

It was nice to hear it live after a long time. The ripple effect was amazing.
