Meanwhile, Jungkook is the youngest member of BTS and has recently written a song to be used as the theme song for a Japanese movie

Netizens' commented:

"Jungkook is between the stage of being a boy and being a man in these photos. He hasn't fully grown up yet here."

"Jungkook looks really young here. Didn't realize how young he looked back then but now, looking back he's a baby."

"Oh man, thank you whoever posted these photos."

"He gives off a different vibe in these photos than now but he's still good looking."

"Omg, he looks so cute eating that pizza."

"I'm the same age as Jungkook and looking at these photos feels like I'm looking at my high school photos."

"He used to look and feel like an older brother back when these were taken but when I look at them now he looks so much like a baby."

Not really news, but I could see why people want to talk about this. I do really feel a feeling of sadness as well as pride from seeing these pictures (the nostalgia is real!!)... He's grown up to be such a great man... Even though I'm younger than him, it really pains me and gives me joy to see how that young fetus has grown to be a man through all that hard work... He really does deserve all the attention and love he gets right now. Usually fame messes up kids at a young age, but he still stayed happy and humble and we love him for that. Keep growing and loving JK, we support you!!!

I have been a fan for around five years and I still cant believe how much he has grown up. Not just with his appearance but with everything else. Hes really matured as an artist, a performer and a man. Im sure he will continue to grow too, itll be interesting to see where he is in five more years!
