BTS Jungkook's beloved family dog, Gureum, passed away late last year. As mentioned by Jungkook in several interviews, his family dog held a special place in his heart and was a huge part of his life.
Likewise, Jungkook's older brother also shared the sad news with fans who were continuously asking him for updates about Gureum as it had been months since they last saw him.

ARMYs recently asked BTS Jungkook's older brother, Jeon Jung-hyun, about their family dog, Gureum, who was a white Maltese. To their surprise, Jung-hyun responded that Gureum passed away at the age of 20 late last year.
