Jungkook has always said that RM is his inspiration and the reason he joined Big Hit Entertainment. He always looks up to him as the leader and the older brother. Jungkook has only high praises for RM whom he considers as a role model and has on several occasions said that he loves Namjoon’s brain because of how complex Namjoon’s thought process is. RM on the other hand has always taken care of Jungkook like his younger brother that he needs to protect. With his IQ of over 140, Jungkook just assumed that RM would know everything and be good at everything, he knows English after all, right? But the only time that Jungkook really needed RM to come through is the time that his Hyung fails him!
Jungkook and RM (Namjoon) of BTS share a relationship rooted in deep respect, admiration, and growth. As the youngest member, Jungkook has often credited RM for being one of the biggest influences in his life. When Jungkook joined Big Hit Entertainment as a trainee at just 15 years old, it was RM’s leadership, talent, and charisma that drew him in and inspired him to stay. In multiple interviews, Jungkook has mentioned how he saw RM as someone to look up to, and it was Namjoon’s presence that solidified his decision to become part of BTS. Over the years, this admiration has only grown, evolving from idolization into a heartfelt brotherhood.
RM, in turn, has always shown a strong protective instinct toward Jungkook. As the leader of BTS, he took on the responsibility of guiding the younger members, but with Jungkook, it’s always been evident that there’s a special bond — a blend of pride, affection, and trust. RM has often praised Jungkook for his all-rounder abilities and work ethic, recognizing how the youngest member grew into one of the group’s strongest performers. Despite their differences in personality — RM being thoughtful and philosophical, while Jungkook is more instinct-driven and playful — they complement each other well, often seen sharing quiet moments, deep conversations, and supportive gestures both on and off stage.
Their relationship is a reflection of BTS’s dynamic as a family more than just a band. Over the years, Jungkook has matured not just as an artist but as a person under RM’s leadership and example, while RM has grown into a more empathetic and balanced leader with the love and support of his members, especially Jungkook. Whether they’re collaborating musically, laughing during behind-the-scenes clips, or offering each other silent support during emotional moments, Jungkook and RM represent a bond forged through time, shared struggles, and an unbreakable trust — one that ARMYs around the world cherish deeply.
On RUN BTS Episode 112, the members were playing a game where you have to give a name to certain phrases that are on the placard that Jin raises. You are to either raise a card with X indicating the wrong answer or O indicating the right answer.
In one of the questions, Jungkook raised his card to show X but quickly changed to O when he saw RM’s card. In the end the teacher confirmed that they all got it wrong. Jungkook with his competitiveness went to RM’s desk yelling how could RM get it wrong? His satori accent coming off thick, and then RM all innocently saying “Sorry” and “I don’t understand…” drawing his Kim English persona.
Fans reaction to that episode are just priceless
“The way Jungkook stood up!“
“Haha!!! Funny how cheaters never win!“
“Cheating is welcomed. I love this class.“
“Haha!!! Funny how cheaters never win!“
“That ‘sorry’ and ‘I don’t understand’ from Namjoon make it more funny.“
“His Busan accent … arggghhh!“
Well, next time I’m sure Jungkook will rely on his own answers lol!
