BTS’s Jungkook Shocks Netizens With His Popularity At Times Square — And The Diversity Of ARMYs
BTS‘s Jungkook has showcased his true global popularity with a recent performance.
On November 9, there were rumblings about a special event Jungkook would do, with many assuming it would be in Times Square. Of course, ARMYs were right, and it was announced that fans had 30 minutes to get to the TSX Stage where the idol would be performing.

As everyone gathered in Times Square, the countdown went off, and Jungkook appeared on the stage.
As soon as Jungkook came out, the crowds went wild and the idol put on a picture-perfect performance with some of his solo tracks.
Considering there was only officially a 30 minutes notice for the event, ARMYs couldn’t hide their shock at how many people were at the performance. While many ARMYs had stayed around the area, the crowds were still unprecedented.
