Jimin inquires whether it was class 9th. "Eighth grade," Jungkook corrects him. The Seven hitmaker continues, "A female was there for a dancing class, just like me. She was also really young. A student, like myself. At first, I thought she was quite attractive. Then I started seeing her frequently. Then the dance teacher instructed me, Jungkook, go talk to her just once! But I was like, How? I don't even speak English."
Jimin, who has been chuckling and gushing throughout the story, asks Jungkook, "But if it were now?" He replies confidently, "Maybe I would go for it. I'll say 'Hello I like you!'"
Fans react to Jungkook's love story
Fans have been commenting on social media nonstop since they viewed the show and Jungkook's open revelations. An ARMY commented on X (previously Twitter), "Young love stories like this feel so pure, and it shows how genuine moments shape the person he became." Another replied: "Can you believe theres a girl walking around living life who was Jungkooks first crush and she doesn't even know it wow lol." Another added the following: "14-year-old Jungkookie getting shy of talking to his crush bcs he doesn't speak english is so him, so cute."
A fan responded: "Awww this conversation between Jikkok about there love/like life is so wholesome. I like their bond where they don't even need to hide their true self." Another admirer exclaimed, "I love how casually and effortlessly Jungkook revealed that he had a crush on a girl back in the United States. He stated that if it were today, he would have contacted her, but back then, he did not know enough English to talk effectively. He's matured so nicely, and so has his confidence. A supporter responded with "jungkook struggling with a crush because he couldn't speak english.. i know your pain jungkook i live it with 7 different dudes."
In the latest season of Are You Sure?! Jungkook and Jimin embark on a 12-day journey with a limited budget and a basic guidebook. The show's first season, which premiered in August 2024, followed their travels in New York, Sapporo, Japan, and Jeju Island, South Korea, prior to their mandatory military duty enlistment. Season 1 of the travel show remained the most-watched non-drama series worldwide for 42 days.
