Jeon JungKook, 25, is widely known for being a k-pop artist and lead vocalist of a Korean hip hop boy group, Bangtan Boys (BTS), representing their own country’s music genre on the global stage.
The band marked k-pop history as they were the first group nominated for Grammy Awards in 2021. Although they did not get the award, BTS awakened the people in the k-pop industry.
Aside from being a k-pop star, Jungkook is also an internet sensation for being one of the most searched on Google and having 36 million followers on Instagram.
Before landing his successful career, Jungkook couldn’t get an opportunity after being rejected on a talent show, Superstar K, held in Daegu, South Korea.
However, he received career offers from seven k-pop industries. Eventually, the kpop star accepted Big Hit Entertainment’s proposal in 2011.
In the following year, the BTS’s youngest member spent his summer in Los Angeles to improve his performance skills in an urban dance studio, Movement Lifestyle.
Ever since his return to South Korea, Jungkook completed his high school terms in an art school, the School of Performing Arts Seoul, until he graduated in 2017.
The k-pop star recently got his Broadcasting and Entertainment degree and recognition through President’s Award after completing his college terms at South Korea’s Global Cyber University in March 2022.
