BTS’s Jungkook Goes Viral For His Resemblance To A Disney Character
From BT21 to TinyTAN, BTS already have cartoon counterparts that resemble them in many ways.
Yet, BTS’s Jungkook has a new animated twin.
Disney Pixar‘s new film Inside Out 2 premiered exclusively in theaters on June 14.
Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear and Disgust have been running a successful operation by all accounts. However, when Anxiety shows up, they aren’t sure how to feel.
In this sequel to the 2015 film, we are introduced to several new characters, including Anxiety and Envy.
Since the final trailer dropped, new emotion, Envy, has stolen the show and won viewers’ hearts. The Bear star and the Irish people’s princess, Ayo Edebiri, brought this lovable character to life with her voice.
Yet, netizens couldn’t deny that Envy resembled someone, but not Ayo.
ARMYs can’t not see Jungkook in Envy! Posts across X (formerly Twitter), TikTok, and Instagram have garnered millions of views as netizens marvel at the similarities.
It appears Jungkook and Envy go to the same salon, as they rocked similar haircuts. In 2023, Jungkook had long, wavy hair and bangs before he shaved his head for military service.

They even have the same wardrobe! Envy wears a purple polka-dot sweater, much like the one Jungkook wore during BTS In the SOOP 2.
