BTS' Jungkook waspraised by Director-General (DG) of World Health Organization (WHO) for his good influence and using his platform to spread awareness during this COVID-19 pandemic. Jungkook advised fans in a Vlive to "take care and wear a mask" in which the DG, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus posted a screenshot of the Vlive on his Twitter with the caption, "Thank you, #BTS for the uplifting #BTS_Dynamite and for reminding the #BTSARMY and the rest of us to #WearAMask and take care of our health and well-being during this #COVID19 pandemic". The tweet received countless engagement from fans worldwide, ensuring the DG that they will be following Jungkook's advises and praising him for being a good role-model.

expressed their hope that this contribution could help people who were struggling to receive proper care in this troubling times of COVID-19. 

Dr. Tedros then quoted Golden Jungkook Union's post with a caption "Thank You" in Korean, and made another post to properly thank the fanbase, and expressed his appreciation of the continuous support from Jungkook, the rest of BTS & ARMY in this pandemic.

This isn't the first time Jungkook's fanbases are making donations in helping people in need, as they are always quick to response to public emergencies and raise funds to help the people affected. Earlier this year, Baidu JEON JUNGKOOK BAR, or mostly known as JungkookCHINA organised a one day emergency fundraiser and collected 52,000 rmb (~$7,500) for emergency relief in Wuhan, the epicenter of the COVID-19 outbreak. In addition to monetary donations, they have outsourced a local, certified vendor to deliver professional medical supplies to hospitals in need, which would be distributed through local authorities. 

Jungkook's fanbases also raise public awareness regarding social issues and made multiple donations towards it. In May this year, Golden Jungkook Union made a donation to Act Blue charities for Black Lives Matter, which was widely reported by major daily Korean newspapers such as the 'Kyunghyang Shinmun'.
