Jungkook has an older brother named Jeon Jung Hyun who already went to military school. His brother is good at drawing, the same as their father. One source said Jungkook has a younger brother, too, but that hasn’t been confirmed. Jungkook’s father comes to BTS concert and always supports Jungkook. During theconcerts, his father is always waving at him but Jungkook has a hard time seeing his family since it is crowded seen from the stage. Besides his father, his mother looks younger than any other moms out there, looking more like Jungkook’s classmate than his mother.
Their family has a lot of artistic talent in their genes. Recently Jungkook’s father made a pencil drawing of BTS’s official Twitter account and it was so hilarious.
Jungkook wrote: ‘My father has prepared a gift for ARMY’, before adding the hashtags (as translated by Soompi) ‘JK’, ‘Dad’s talented hand, ‘my talent level is only 1% of my dad’s’, ‘Dad is the best’, ‘I love you ARMY’ and ‘my dad loves ARMY too’.
