Jungkook’s current position allows him to utilize his culinary skills, a hobby he often shared with fans before his enlistment. He frequently shared his culinary adventures on Weverse and through personal live streams, preparing various dishes ranging from pasta to buckwheat noodles.

On March 16, Jungkook provided fans with a much-anticipated update on Weverse, his first since enlisting. In his post, he assured fans of his well-being, stating, “I’m doing well. I’ve been working out a lot too. I’m doing a great job cleaning—up to the ceiling. I’m cooking well too. It’s already mid-March. I’ll see you again. I miss you a lot. Unity!”.
As BTS members gradually fulfill their mandatory military service, their diverse talents and the ways they continue to connect with fans highlight the group’s enduring impact both on and off the stage.
