BTS‘s Jungkook recently made headlines again. This time, it’s because of a heartwarming act of kindness towards an ARMY who visited a restaurant he had recommended.
Angoo, a popular Korea-based food and travel content creator and a proud fan of BTS, posted a TikTok of her visit to Sokurichon Cheongdam (소쿠리촌 청담), a barbecue place in Gangnam that Jungkook had frequented in the past. This restaurant has also played host to other idols like SEVENTEEN‘s Hoshi and Mingyu, as well as ASTRO’s Cha Eunwoo. Their signatures adorn the restaurant’s wall.

During her visit, Angoo ordered the same menu Jungkook had supposedly enjoyed.

Jungkook treats fans well
The visit took an even sweeter turn when the restaurant’s manager informed Angoo that Jungkook had asked him to take extra care of ARMYs who visited the place. In honor of Jungkook‘s request, the restaurant treated Angoo to some amazing freebies, including makgeolli, highball, and red bean shaved ice.
The video of Angoo’s experience recently went viral on X (formerly Twitter), where fans expressed gratitude for having an idol like Jungkook who treats them so well. Many fans reiterated how much they miss the singer, who is currently serving in the South Korean military.
Jungkook and fellow BTS member Jimin enlisted under the “동반입대” (dongbanipdae) or buddy system. This program allows them to enlist, train, and live together for the duration of their service. They’re scheduled to be discharged in 2025. – K-Pop News Writer
