The Golden Maknae of the 7-member K-pop boy band BTS is not only leading the Billboard right now but also the top headlined. Jeon Jungkook, the crooner of ‘SEVEN’ was recently spotted smoking outside the Matsuhisa, the place renowned for its exquisite dining experience in Los Angeles. As soon as the pictures and video were leaked by ‘Lainey Gossip’, an American Celebrity gossip website, the internet was taken aback. While Jungkook and his vaping saga is already famous among ARMY, this was something new. Many supported him claiming that he is a grown-up now, others found him super hot but there was also a segment of ARMY who didn’t seem pleased and were concerned about his health.
Old video of Jungkook on Smoking resurfaces
Amid, all of this a 9-year-old video recently started surfacing again. In the video, Jungkook can be seen speaking his heart out on things he wants to do with his hyungs when he grows up. Additionally, he can be seen telling how much he hates the fact that his dad smokes, which can have a detrimental impact on his health.
In a video he shot while the reality series “American Hustle Life” was being filmed in Los Angeles, Jungkook expressed his eagerness to mature. He excitedly planned activities like driving, getting tattoos, and drinking with his seniors.
But in the same video, he mentioned what he hates the most “I want to hurry up and become an adult. You can smoke when you’re an adult. My dad smokes, too, but I really hate it.”
“Can I make a video letter for my dad? Dad! Please stop smoking. It’s not good for your lungs. Either buy an electronic cigarette or quit smoking. Later, it’ll be like poison, and it’ll build up in your body. I hope you watch this episode and quit smoking”.
BTS members and smoking scandal
This incident isn’t the initial instance of a BTS member facing scrutiny regarding smoking. Previously, there was a significant buzz on the internet over the alleged leak of Kim Taehyung smoking at the Grammy premises. Subsequently, Suga, also known as Min Yoongi, caught everyone’s attention by including a smoking scene in his music video. However, the recent revelation of the youngest member of the group engaging in similar behavior has once more sparked a divided reaction from fans.
