I'm a huge fan of Michael Jackson. Grew up listening to his music. Watched and rewatched all of his MVs. He was very talented. He is irreplaceable of course. But Jungkook is also very talented. He can sing well (stable) live while dancing. His soft & breathy voice is so heavenly.

That's just huge. Everyone who has been a pop lover knows what stature late Michael Jackson has in the industry. He is one of the greatest pop icons that the world has witnessed. BTS ARMY is going crazy over the comparisons as well. A lot of non-ARMYs have compared Jungkook which has come as a surprise to the fans.
Jungkook returns home
Last night, Jungkook returned home from Qatar. He was in good spirits and also flaunted his Taeggeuk Warriors' jersey to the ARMY. Jungkook bowed to the media and the ARMYs present and also did the football kick like before.
