When people hear “Golden Maknae,” BTS superstar Jungkook is the first name that comes to mind. With his striking looks, strong physique, and versatile talent in singing, dancing, rapping, and songwriting — along with his impressive personality — he is considered the perfect role model. Fans and even aspiring idols often look up to him as an ideal figure.
But don’t be fooled by this polished image! Jungkook can be fully focused when needed, yet equally playful, daring, and mischievous when it’s time to have fun.
Behind-the-scenes footage and BTS variety shows frequently show Jungkook as the mastermind behind “wild and unexpected challenges.” Smashing a watermelon with his head? Chugging 1.5 liters of water in one go? Those feats are nothing compared to his ghost-hunting adventure.
Believe it or not, Jungkook once went ghost hunting in the middle of the night inside his own home. He shared the entire story — including a “shocking twist” — with fans during a live broadcast.
The story began when a fan jokingly said someone was standing behind him — a common prank during livestreams. Instead of getting scared, Jungkook casually said it could actually be a ghost, since he had already gone searching for one before starting the stream. Fans were stunned.
He enthusiastically explained how he followed tips from professional ghost hunters:
“Before moving in here, I was really excited to meet a ghost. Around 2 AM, I turned off all the lights, took the device ghost hunters use, and sat in the living room waiting…”
As for the outcome, he laughed and said:
“…And there was no sound haha” — playfully teasing his mischievous fans.
Jungkook also shared why he wanted to search for ghosts. He had actually seen a ghost in the dorm before, which sparked his curiosity about spirits.
“I saw a ghost in the dorm! I wanted to ask them how old they are, what happened to them, and maybe even become friends. I was curious. And I still am!”
He admitted that he had prepared extensively in case he actually encountered a ghost — watching countless videos and learning methods — but when nothing happened, he gracefully ended the experiment.
It’s truly a bold move! Who would have thought someone would want to befriend spirits, despite not being a shaman or spiritual expert, and actually study how to communicate with “beings from another world”? Fans were amazed and excited, with many suggesting he start a dedicated ghost-hunting YouTube channel:
- “JK should start his own YT channel and become a ghostbuster.”
- “This is probably the funniest thing I’ve read all day. He’s amazing!”
- “Wanting to befriend ghosts is so adorable.”
- “We need a Jungkook ghost-hunting episode.”
- “Can’t believe Jungkook had his own Ghostbusters era.”
- “Only Jungkook would befriend a ghost. He’s so adorable!”
