BTS' Jungkook the main vocalist of BTS has always impressed fans and general public with his outstanding and stunning vocals, and lately the attention and praises he received for his remarkable singing is getting bigger than ever, especially after'Dynamite', 'Tiny Desk Concert',the release of 'Savage Love Remix' and clips of him singing adlibs for 'In The SOOP' OST, among many other performances and occasions. 

This comment was made in a K-online community by a person who works in the area of vocals, and it received a lot of attention. Mentioning Jungkook will be a remarkable pop singer who will make a mark in the music industry, the original poster (OP) lists Jungkook's abilities: 
"1. Born with absolute pitch ability, sense of rhythm and auditory skill, 2. Ability to constantly control breathing and sophisticated diction 3. Execution in all vocal ranges with proficiency 4. Unique and varied voice tones and his body as superb instrument 5. Natural vocals that sound as if talking"

OP also praised Jungkook's 'Dynamite' intro, saying "In Dynamite intro, he starts singing in "recitativo" style (singing as if talking) without any instrumental or supporting sound and then progresses into rhythmical beats, singing in a bit rough vocals presenting exact pitches in mid-high range, and then at "top LeBron", he sings as if he's pinching the high note and then comes down to lower key. Here, he's showcasing an original vocal skill that no one can imitate, and that's why he's getting praised as a pop singer".

A Korean Youtuber, formerly a veteran journalist working for Korea’s CBS Radio, expressed his thoughts on 'Savage Love Remix' on his Youtube channel 'Idol Chief': 

"Jungkook's voice is striking. His vocal technique, interpretation and execution have now come to a point where he can perform songs of any genres. He’s bringing out so perfectly this club music with ‘reggae’ beats and English lyrics so perfectly. (In such songs, if the vocals don’t succeed in bringing out those precise beats, the song will sound very coarse) And on top of that, he’s putting in his characteristic trait and has interpreted the song in a very ‘Jungkook-esque’ way".

Listen to Jungkook's beautiful raw vocals in 'Savage Love Remix' here:

Knetizens' reactions to Jungkook's amazing vocals in 'Savage Love Remix':

"Many experts in the US agree that one of the reasons why BTS songs can be differentiated is the voice of the main vocalist Jungkook. All the other group's main vocalists are good too, but Jungkook has a different color, so it's easy to say that it's optimized for Pop. This song is also so good"

"Every note that Jungkook makes is an art. He has the perfect ability to make the song his own"

"I think more people know what Jungkook is good at. Good"

"Jungkook's voice is a musical instrument. It's such a waste of talent but I hope there will be more opportunities for him to work alone"

"He's so good. I mean without auto-tune, his tone, timbre, breathing, vibration is better than CD. I can't believe we have such a singer at the same time in our country"

Knetizens were beyond impressed after watching 'In The SOOP' OST recording scene, where Jungkook was seen singing amazing ad-libs and doing a great job behind the scenes as part of his responsibilities as main vocalist:

"It's pure talent. The ad-lib comes up on the spot"

"Why is he so good at ad-libbing? I want him to do a really soulful song for once"

"He's a real master of harmony. He's really good and cool"

"Our main vocal who everyone trusts and listens to"

"Our Jungkook is a genius, for real"

"As expected, an acknowledged chorus master...What would've happened without Jungkook? A round of applause to the master of the chorus, who saves a load of songs"

Below is the clip of Jungkook slaying his ad-libs, studio vs official version:

Knetizens reactions to Jungkook's voice singing 'Savage Love Remix' which he posted on Twitter:

"Jungkook-ah, please get insurance for your voice"

"He has something that looks like a pop singer, he's so good at singing live"

"Jungkook's voice matches well with pop songs, so he sings well even with English songs"

The post that Jungkook tweeted of him singing 'Savage Love Remix' which gained a lot of attention and praises from medias and fans worldwide (but he is used to that of course):

After NPR X BTS Tiny Desk Concert, there were more than 850 posts made on Korea’s online community ‘theqoo’ (K-idol category alone) praising Jungkook’s live performance, some of the translated comments as below:

"One of the best thing about Jungkook's vocals is that he doesn't have bad singing habits. When a singer has singing habits, the song that the singer sings sound so similar. You go like "Ah, again..." He doesn't have any bad habit, has wonderful voice color, and he has good breathing skill which makes him so strong in live vocals"

"What's really the thing about Jungkook is his live vocals. He's so f***ing good. In the end of Spring Day, he does the harmonizing chorus with another member, and then goes right into his own line. When does he even breathe?"

"BTS' Jungkook voice is so diverse. He sounds differently in each song"
