Korean K-pop superstar JungKook’s mysterious visit to Budapest

BTS’s Jungkook arrived in Budapest with seven dancers and BigHit Music’s director of choreography.

As reported by sportskeeda.com, he boarded his plane yesterday at Seoul’s Incheon International Airport. In his homeland, he’s a singing sensation who has been breaking records since July 2023 when he released his solo single, SEVEN (feat. Latto).

Interestingly, he came to Budapest before the release of his second solo debut album, GOLDEN, scheduled for 3 November. X, formerly known as Twitter, is abuzz with searches and discussions about Budapest and JungKook. According to sportskeeda.com, there have been 18.6 thousand posts on the subject, and that number is just blowing up.

Fans are speculating why he has come to the Hungarian capital with a camera in hand.

Some speculate that he would like to film content for his personal YouTube channel, GOLDEN CLOSET FILMS. He regularly shares videos about his global travels. If he creates a promotional video about Budapest or Hungary, similar to what he did for the USA, we believe Hungarians will be pleased:

And HERE is another video about Helsinki, the capital of Finland.

No one knows why the Korean superstar is here

The artist filmed his pre-released singles from his SEVEN (feat. Latto) and 3D (feat. Jack Harlow) albums abroad, in Los Angeles and Kentucky. Therefore, it would not be surprising if he did the same for his new album in Budapest. Sportskeeda suggests that Budapest may serve as a backdrop for one of his music videos from the new GOLDEN album. This wouldn’t be surprising since even Hollywood and its stars often visit the Hungarian capital. HERE are their favourite restaurants.

And his fans are already talking about how beautiful the Hungarian capital is. We recommend two articles on the subject. HERE is one about where to go and what to explore when visiting Budapest. Meanwhile, you can read about the top 10 unusual things to do in the Hungarian capital in THIS article.
