BTS Jungkook is known as the Golden Maknae, an all-rounded idol, and one of the best performers in the K-pop industry today. The main vocalist, lead dancer, center, sub-rapper of BTS, also known for his genius producing, composing, and songwriting, had achieved so much at such a young age.

Hence, it wouldn't come as a surprise if younger idols look up to Jungkook as their role model. Jungkook's solo song 'Euphoria,' the most-streamed K-pop male idol solo song, also has become very well-loved by many younger idols. Laid out here are some of the idols who expressed their admiration towards Jungkook before, and frankly speaking, these idols themselves are some of the best and well-praised in the industry right now:

1. Bang Chan (Stray Kids)

Bang Chan, Stray Kids' Leader, Lead Vocalist, Lead Dancer, Sub-Rapper, and Producer, played Jungkook's solo song 'Euphoria' during a live streaming and said, "Jungkook sunbaenim, who sang this song has such a good voice. I’m a big fan, very very, very, very big fan. I think he’s incredible. I think he’s such an amazing person.” 

On ‘Euphoria,’ Bang Chan said, “When I’m working on music and things don’t go the way I want, I sometimes listen to this song and I feel very good. This song feels as if - whenever you are off the road for a while, this song would enable you to get back on the track and to be able to do what you want to do.”

2. Jongho (Ateez)
