Before beginning his military enlistment, BTS’ Jungkook apparently enjoyed a dinner at a Korean BBQ restaurant with SEVENTEEN’s Mingyu and, to many fans’ astonishment, BLACKPINK’s Jennie. This surprising detail emerged from a viral post on Threads, where a netizen recounted their visit to the BBQ restaurant featured in actor Park Sung Hoon’s vlog. The fan was taken aback to find Jungkook’s autograph on display at the restaurant, which staff revealed was from his initial visit.
The post read, “I came to visit the barbecue place that Park Sung Hoon went to in his vlog, and unexpectedly discovered Jeon Jungkook’s autograph. I asked the staff when he came, and they said he came many times. The autograph was from his first visit~ (I’m going to hide the rest in the comments because I don’t know if I’m supposed to say it)”, as quoted by Koreaboo.
In a twist that further intrigued fans, the post continued, “The staff said the last time Jeon Jungkook came was before he enlisted, and he came with Kim Mingyu and Jennie”. This revelation stunned many, especially since the fan had no prior knowledge of a friendship between Jungkook and Jennie, aside from their public activities as K-Pop idols.
The poster expressed their disbelief, “I was so shocked when I heard it, because I didn’t know Jeon Jungkook and Jennie knew each other. I confirmed it [with the staff] so many times, it was hilarious. (Actually, this is not anything that can’t be said. Perhaps someone else revealed this before but I didn’t see it. But I’m hiding it [in the comments] anyway)”.
The post’s content quickly stirred reactions among netizens, who were excited and surprised to learn of this unexpected gathering of three top K-Pop stars. Comments flooded in, reflecting the general sentiment: “I’m shocked!!!” and “I knew they knew each other but I didn’t know they were close!” One fan even noted, “I’m about to go crazy” while another exclaimed, “WHAT!!!”
This unexpected connection shows the close-knit nature of the K-Pop industry, where even the biggest stars often share friendships that fans might not anticipate. Despite their global fame and busy schedules, it’s clear that the K-Pop world is smaller and more interconnected than many might think.
