BTS's Jungkook is praised for his perfect pitch, sense of rhythm, and exceptional vocal range, which sets him apart from other K-Pop main vocalists. His abilities were detailed in a recent article by a music writer for Weverse magazine. The article also highlights his songwriting abilities and ever-growing passion for music.
Atjust 24 years old and in just ten years, Jungkook has already established a singing style all his own. Weverse Magazine, [Listening to Jungkook, The Vocalist keeps improving.]
Starting with Jungkook's vocal style in his hit 'Left And Right' with Charlie Puth, the article sheds light on why Jungkook was chosen as the main vocalist of BTS at the age of 15 years, what sets him apart from other K-Pop main vocalists and how his vocals add more dynamics and colors to BTS songs. The weverse article stated:
“BTS chose 15-year old Jungkook, with his innate sense of rhythm and airy voice, to be their main vocalist. The nature of his vocals made BTS’s music feel fresher and chiller, and separated it from then typical K-pop pathos.”
Praising Jungkook's unparalleled sense of rhythm and the way he expresses himself through his vocals, the article said:
“Much can be said about Jungkook’s vocals but his sense of rhythm in particular is unparalleled. His understanding of a song’s rhythm seems to be baked into his body, the way dances and the way he is able to express himself through his vocals”
Jungkook's perfect pitch was once again mentioned and highlighted in the article as:
“His sense of pitch is excellent as well. When he sings a cappella, JungKook can always find the correct notes right away. It is generally believed that only one person in a thousand possesses perfect pitch. His sense of pitch seems to have an effect on his songwriting too.”
Jungkook having perfect pitch has been proved numerous times, whether it's Run BTS episode mentioning him to be the music Prodigy with the perfect pitch or Charlie Puth mentioning it multiple times in his interviews with US radios.
Jungkook's great song-writing skills and hearing ability were also praised by stating that:
“He is said to have written the music for his song 'Still With You' before any beat was decided on by simply setting a metronome and singing the melody overtop. This song is written in a jazz scale and has a lot of dramatic interval leaps, making it hard to sing even with accompanying instruments. This is his ability to accurately conjure up and single out notes in his mind and sing them correctly. Considering his equally impressive ability to repeat vocals, he seems to have not only a keen sense of pitch but overall hearing as well”
Jungkook's ever-growing passion for music, despite having numerous records for an Asian under his belt, was also applauded by the music artist.
“It’s fascinating to see the artist eager to grow and continually changing even 10 years after his debut. He was already impressive at age 15, but he’s since come so far to reach where he is today that it’s difficult to quantify just how much ground he has covered in that time. BTS was making strides that whole time and JungKook, the youngest member, was right there making strides with the rest of them.”
“His name is attached to countless records, including the youngest Asian person to top the Billboard Hot 100...But he remains ever-dedicated to his bread and butter: singing and making music. Jungkook’s love of music shows in the way he aspires toward self-improvement. Despite working in the industry from an early age, he shows no signs of tiring of music.
..The music will still be there. What’s not to love about an artist whose passion burns so bright?”

There was never ever a doubt he was super talented but i loved how the article broke it down and discussed every aspect, every skill with such detail. You just don't get to be chosen as the frontman, the main vocalist at the young age of 15 if you don't have the skills to back it up. Diction and just how he enunciates english words-its superb esp from someone who isn't fluent in the language. His english songs and covers are a testament to that. In the current global pop music scene, Jungkook really has what it takes to make big, really big.
