After Jungkook teased about his upcoming album on Suchwita, fans have been keenly waiting for the BTS maknae to unveil its release date. And the wait is finally over. Following his Billboard number one single Seven and the follow-up hit track 3D with rapper Jack Harlow, Jungkook officially announced his first solo album titled Golden on Wednesday, October 3. The youngest member of BTS, who routinely interacts with ARMY via Weverse, also held a live interaction to discuss his upcoming music venture. But one of his shocking revelations about following a strict diet regime has shaken fans to the core. Besides practising hard, Jungkook disclosed he has been skipping meals to maintain weight.
So much so that he’s relying on IV drips to provide nutrition to his body. During the live interaction, the BTS member appeared quite candid while sipping drinks and responding to fans’ questions. At one point, he reportedly was quoted saying, “I got an IV today, to get more energy. I haven’t had a single meal today since I need to take care of my weight.” Although he finished the statement confirming that there’s nothing to worry about. “There’s nothing I’m feeling stressed about though,” he concluded.

It didn’t take long for ARMY to raise concerns about his health on social media, with many requesting Jungkook to avoid starving himself. A fan said, “No please be healthy and eat well.”
