It is currently September 1 in KST, which means BTS maknae Jungkook’s birthday has finally arrived.
While Jimin nearly sent ARMYs into a meltdown with his birthday post for his member, ARMYs, too, are showing their love in their own sweet ways. Some organized birthday ad campaigns for him, while others conveyed their love through heartfelt messages on social media.

Additionally, he also held a brief live broadcast where he showed off a cute magic trick and thanked fans before signing off.
ARMYs couldn’t be more grateful to be the ones receiving gifts from him on his own birthday. But it looks like some people got even luckier and got to meet Jungkook in person on the same day!

During his livestream, Jungkook mentioned that he was out with friends and had turned on the stream as soon as he came home.
🐰 I finished practice and I ate together with the friends I practiced with.
🐰 I had a drink too and then I came in like this.
🐰 But I still had to send you a note so I did!

It turns out he visited a popular restaurant DosanJeongyuk, where he ran into multiple fans. One lucky fan, in particular, shared her story of meeting Jungkook coincidentally at the restaurant. She even shares the same birthday with the BTS member!
Is this a dream…
It’s my birthday tomorrow (9/1), and for the birthday party, I went to eat meat at # DosanJeongyuk (restaurant name), a place I have wanted to eat at for a long time. But!!!
I saw Jungkook-nimJungkook’s birthday is also on 9/1. ..
Isn’t the timing crazy? We have the same birthday and even met at the same restaurant!!!
I still can’t believe it, seriously. I’m just dumbfounded.— First part of the fan’s caption
One by one, multiple photos of Jungkook with fans at the same restaurant surfaced online, and in each of them, he posed happily.

Looks like Jungkook was serious when he said he would love to be approached by fans casually on the streets as if they are his old friends!
