By now, most ARMYs know that Jungkook has a strong fondness for wine, beer, and other alcoholic drinks. For him, drinking is simply a way to relax and relieve stress—it’s a personal hobby that, as an adult, he has every right to enjoy.

Over the years, fans have often seen Jungkook drinking casually during late-night or early-morning Weverse Lives. In fact, alcohol has become a natural companion during his conversations with ARMY. As Jungkook once admitted on a live:
“It’s not that I purposely drink during lives, but somehow once the drink kicks in, you all come to my mind.”

At first, however, the older BTS members were a bit cautious about Jungkook drinking on livestreams. They feared it might spark negative talk—similar to how tattoos are still viewed with stigma. Many people still believe idols should maintain a “pure” image, and alcohol is often unfairly seen as a “bad habit.”

But over time, the members’ attitude shifted. Instead of stopping him, they chose to respect Jungkook’s choices while gently reminding him to care for his health. For example, when Jungkook was drinking a highball during a live, Jimin left sweet comments like:
“You can do whatever you want,” “Do a broadcast about drinking,” and “Jakey, don’t drink too much.”

Similarly, RM joined the relaxed mood by asking him to sing and commenting:
“Drink in moderation, dude.”
Even j-hope dropped by, leaving his own affectionate message:
“Cute fella, drink moderately and have fun.”

Instead of scolding or showing disapproval, the members always responded with warmth, care, and acceptance. Their affectionate approach was completely different from the toxic individuals who criticized Jungkook online.

These so-called “fans” often labeled him as irresponsible for drinking during lives, or even demanded that he quit alcohol altogether—clearly crossing personal boundaries.

Jungkook responded to these remarks directly and firmly:
“Why are you telling me to stop drinking? I’m an adult, I’m 27. I’m young and I’m enjoying life. You only live once. If I got another life, maybe I wouldn’t do this.”

True fans appreciated Jungkook’s bold reply and agreed that only his BTS hyungs have the right to say such things to him with love. They pointed out that strangers should not try to dictate his lifestyle.

Some fan reactions included:

• “Only BTS can say that. They’ve cared for him for 10 years, but strangers aren’t his parents.”
• “Friends and strangers are different. Hyungs reminding him is love, outsiders doing it is overstepping.”
• “It’s so sweet when his members comment—just imagine them smiling while typing.”
• “If Jin were here, he’d probably make it a playful competition while still telling him to be careful.”

In the end, fans recognized the touching reality: BTS members lovingly watch over their maknae, while outsiders cross boundaries under the guise of “concern.”
