BTS’ Jung Kook knows how to entertain millions of fans and does well at every chance he gets. On February 2, 2023, the singer hosted a Weverse livestream, an Instagram live stream, and another Weverse livestream from around 2 am that night, ending more than four hours later.

The BTS maknae’s signature live stream concept has become singing karaoke songs. Without thinking about any fan wars, he sometimes takes requests from ARMYs through comments and sings any songs he wishes to. He sang several artists' songs in his most recent live performance, showcasing his vocal prowess.

These artists included his 97-liner friend group SEVENTEEN, rookie group NewJeans, veteran group Epik High, popular soloist Crush, Sam Smith, and others. Fans were particularly excited to see him belt out the high notes of SEVENTEEN’s Pretty U and HOT. He also sang Clap (aka Baksu) soon after.

Jung Kook shows off his tattoo sleeve on live

The BTS maknae’s Weverse Live was a treat for the fans. Aside from giving them a new karaoke playlist and talking to them, he explained the significance behind his tattoos for the first time.

He also showed fans the BTS friendship tattoo.
