Jungkook’s 3:42AM live on February 26, I just wanted to share my thoughts and process everything he opened up about.
First of all… the fact that Jungkook went live at that hour already told ARMY that something was on his mind. The live felt raw and unfiltered. He talked about the pressure surrounding his comeback album, how heavy expectations can feel, and how much he overthinks his music. You could really sense that he cares deeply about what he releases and how it’s received.
When he mentioned the pressure around the comeback as an ARMY our heart honestly hurt a little. We always say we’ll wait and that he should take his time, but I think sometimes the industry pace and public anticipation create pressure that’s hard to escape. He’s not just “the golden maknae” — he’s an artist trying to grow and figure himself out.
He also addressed the smoking issue, and whether people agree with it or not. I appreciated that he didn’t avoid the topic. He didn’t make excuses — he just spoke honestly. At the end of the day, he’s 30 Years old and an adult. I know, We care about his health, but we can’t control his personal choices. What matters to me is that he seemed aware of how fans feel and still chose to communicate openly.
The part that really stood out was his frustration with HYBE. Hearing him express that something could potentially turn into a controversy felt serious. We often seen how quickly narratives can spiral. I respect that he gave us a subtle warning instead of staying silent. It felt like he was trusting ARMY to stay calm and think critically if something happens.
Overall, the live reminded me that behind the global superstar image is a human being who feels pressure, frustration, and vulnerability. I hope we can respond not with panic or speculation, but with support and maturity.
The live video quickly went viral. As fans grew worried and showed their support for Jungkook, the video is reportedly no longer available on the website.
