Jungkook career path

  • Jungkook released a webtoon ost and it charted similarly with the bts world ost. His songs like Euphoria and Still With You were well received in comparison.


    Do you think Jungkook's mixtape / solo album is going to be a success?


    IMO, he's career path as a solo artist is kind of unpredictable because I don't think he has found his niche as an artist just yet. Plus he hasn't work outside of hybe projects.

  • I think he will do very well solo. He is very versatile like J-hope and lets admit J-hope is killing it with his solo projects.

  • he has potential

    To be the Beyoncé of Bts or not

  • Jungkook could have a huge solo carreer (while still being a member of bts ofc), but hybe is probably gonna fuck it up. JK is, together with the others of the ML the biggest idols atm & yet, hybe keeps using the hype of their first solo's for their irrelevant non music content.


    jk with that webtoon ost & now the rumors jimin's will be used for the Youth drama ost..

    Stay Alive did amazing for what it was, but it's clear that jk couldn't care much for it. he was completely silent while it was out & started promoting other songs the moment he could (while he was so excited to share SWY).

    call me a manti all you want, but i'm completely convinced hybe don't want the boys to be too big individually, unless they can use it (purely) for their own gain.


    he still seems very unsure of his mixtape & admits to being a perfectionist about it, but seeing how his previous selfmade songs are absolutely gold & had huge potentials, whatever he will release in the end, will be incredibly well made & completely him. He has a very Main Pop dude kind of voice. I can totally see him dominating the western world. also, not a fan of jb, but i could see a collab between them working very well.

  • He's not as popular among gp as I thought he would be, he'll do better than other bts members internationally but avg on kcharts. I'm certain he's the most loved member by the armys and will do better than any other bts member.

  • Hybe is following jyp, not hyping up their solos so they'd resign again as ot7 under them. They've never promoted solo gigs but stay Alive was well promoted but I oubt they'd have promoted it if it was for some drama and jimin ost rumor might be true because they know it'll be his 1st ost and the hype will be contributed to drama.

    I feel like the gp still has interest in him. It just depends on the song. When I heard SWY, that song would have done so well on charts.

    SWY did well on international charts. But I was referring to kcharts I was expecting baekhyun /jennie type of chart domination. U know every group has a digital monster on kcharts I was expecting jungkook to be that member.

    Karmys boycott Chakho webtoon,

    And Karmys known for not supporting ost

    The reason why stay alive still on k chart probably just JK k solo still supporting the song

    The only reason why Stay Alive promoted by Hybe is because Chakho is Hybe project,

    Even JK completely silent after SA released, a week later he promote another artist song


    I doubt Hybe will promote another solo activity if that is not Hybe's, they probably just do bare minimum like Christmas tree, just a single Tweet.

    Still with you is wonderful,

    But you said it depends on the song, you think Stay Alive is not a good song??

    Because I personally really love SA, from production, vocals, everything.

  • I don’t know why the only solo song he’s released has been an OST for a flop HYBE-pushed webtoon that no one was hyped for. Not even the fans.


    There’s no reason he can’t do a song for an actual real drama or just a loose single or something.


    Also, the webtoon turned a lot of fans off because they see it as yet another cash grab from HYBE. It just puts a bad taste in my mouth. BH can’t let their main vocalist sing an OST for a kdrama, but they’ll use him to peddle their latest BTS spin off? Doesn’t make sense.

  • SWY did well on international charts. But I was referring to kcharts I was expecting baekhyun /jennie type of chart domination. U know every group has a digital monster on kcharts I was expecting jungkook to be that member.

    SWY is a masterpiece. It would have topped melon if it was released on digital platforms.


    Even tho Stay Alive is a beautiful song, its forgettable.


    If he wants to have a solo career, he has to be wise with the decisions he's making.

  • hybe don't know how to manage soloists or they just don't care. jungkook and some bts members have so much solo potentials but all gone to waste because of hybe's ignorance

  • Hybe is following jyp, not hyping up their solos so they'd resign again as ot7 under them.

    All members drama ost was mentioned by Hybe except jins +

  • We'll definitely have to see more work from him before we can establish public opinion. Stay Alive trended on melon but didn't live up to the expectation.
