Family: mother, father, older brother

The list of stage names that were chosen for me because I'm from Busan included: Seagull, Young Gun, and many others. But everyone agreed that Jungkook - best option. In 7th grade I studied b-boying with my peers and hyungs. Then I auditioned for Mnet's show "Superstar K2" and was selected by my current agency. As I danced, director Bang Si-hyuk told me, “Zero emotion. A completely emotionless dance.” So I went to the States to learn dance. I studied street style, women's style dance, powerful dances and much more along with famous choreographers. I think I was able to learn how to properly show emotions while dancing. As soon as I returned to Korea, I kept telling the hyungs, “Hyung, the USA is great. I want to go there again." So the hyungs were a little upset (laughs). In “No More Dream” I say the phrase: “Okay, Mom, I told you I’m going to the reading room now!” I visited the reading room many times. But I didn’t study there, but mostly read books. Mostly comics... wait, was that a library? Forget, I've never been to a reading room. The hyungs gave me the nickname "Golden Mannae". I think that I am often mischievous because we are very close. I really enjoy annoying the hyungs (laughs). (Suga: “He has a good memory, so he can impersonate us.” Rapmon: “When he does that, our voices sound weird.”) There's nothing wrong with being the youngest. We each have our own bed in the dorm. The hyungs use the top bunks, but since I was last on the list, I had no choice anyway. I'm about 3 cm taller than Jimin hyung. I don't think he's growing. (Jimin: “I’m two years older than him, but he keeps making fun of me because of my height. I don’t think it’s right.” Suga: “I remember that when Jungkook first joined the company, he was shorter than me. Seeing The way he grows, I feel like I raised him." I love a lot of dishes, so I will choose only three of my favorites. The first is pork soup with rice, the second is sashimi, and the third is conger eel. Jin-hyung and I have a five-year age difference, but when he talks about his childhood, I feel a generation gap. Sometimes I don't quite understand when hyung talks about the crackers he always ate, the Godzilla movie, H.O.T and things like that. The hyungs say that I'm going through a turbulent period right now*. But I don't think it's puberty. (Suga: “People going through puberty don’t realize it. I’m a little sorry that he’s not able to experience the things he should at his age.” Rapmon: “I’m still jealous that he’ll join the army later than us.”) .

Fortunately, his height (181 cm) allows him to play. The guy was born in Seoul, but spent some time in America and the islands of New Zealand. He has a younger sister. Nam June hates choreography, suffers from his own busyness, strives for self-development, studies languages, and prefers dark tones in clothes.
- Kim Seokjin(pseudo - Jin) - the face of the group. The vocalist was born in the city of Anyang in 1992, so he is considered the “oldest” in the group. The guy is the eldest in the family. He has a bright appearance and seems perfect. However, in order to stay in shape, Kim has to train a lot and go on diets. He loves to eat, knows how to cook, but the dishes turn out to be inedible. Kim Sokjin did not expect to become a singer because he was preparing to become a detective. The vocalist's closest friend is V.
- Jung Hoseok(pseudo-Hope) is a twenty-four-year-old rap artist and dancer. Born in Gwangju. Despite the dislike for sports activities, he manages to maintain perfect physical fitness(weighs 65 kg with a height of 177 cm). The guy loves the color green and collecting Lego.

- Kim Taehyung(pseudo-V) is the twenty-two-year-old vocalist of the boy group BTS. Daegu is his birthplace. V is an older brother and has a little sister and brother.

Friendly with all the guys in the team. Has out-of-the-box thinking, is always original in his judgments. It was recently revealed that Jungkook and V are a same-sex couple. In any case, this idea was prompted by “cute” photographs and video footage, which indicate a special connection between young people.
- Jeong Jeong Kook- the youngest member of the group, rapper. Born in Busan. He draws well and loves chaos, so his room is a mess. In clothes and interiors, he prefers a combination of black and white, and also loves the color red.

IN BTS Suga not only a performer, but also a composer of new compositions. He rhymes words with ease. Due to his light skin, the band member received the nickname Sugar. Suga is very lazy when it comes to rehearsals and performances. He is friendly and sociable. When he is nervous, he uses dialect expressions in his speech.
- Park Jimin- the second member of the team who does not have a pseudonym. To a young man turned 22 years old. In the group, Jimin plays the role of vocalist. He is friends with Kim Taehyung (V), his same year, and Suga, whom he allows to take care of him - bring food and drinks during rehearsals and after concerts.
