On an online community forum, a netizen compiled a list of mentions featuring BTS's Jungkook in American television shows, magazines, articles, and more. From 'The Simpsons' to the political editorial 'Spectator USA', the amount of material featuring Jungkook surprised Korean fans and netizens, who found this phenomenon "adorable" and "amazing."

Some mentions are:

CW's 'Nancy Drew' about Jungkook's hair color debate

'The Simpsons'

'Quizfest' magazine's poll for 'Who is your dream celeb date?'


Newspaper based in New Jersey (comic strip talking about how all the girls are watching Jungkook instead of playing snow fight with the local boys)


'Spectator USA' (paralleling political party disputes with fans arguing which one will marry Jungkook)


'People' magazine's 'Sexiest Man Alive 2020'


'iHeartRadio' platform's poll for 'Who are you watching fireworks with this year?!'

Some comments include:

"OMG...our Jungkook is a su-seu ('superstar')..."

"It's amazing how one can just write 'Jungkook' now and everybody would know who he is"

"Hot guy, adorable baby bunny!!!"
"Wow, they don't even need 'BTS' in front of his name anymore"

"Jungkook's coolness speaks to every culture and every country"

"Worldwide Jungkook..."
