In which city was BTS member Jungkook born?

“In which city was BTS member Jungkook born?” — Jungkook was born in Busan, South Korea.

Jeon Jung-kook was born on September 1, 1997, in Busan, South Korea’s large southeastern port city. He spent part of his childhood there and attended Baekyang Elementary School and Baekyang Middle School before moving into the next stage of his training.

Jungkook later transferred to a middle school in Seoul after becoming a trainee under Big Hit Entertainment. That move can create confusion, because Seoul is strongly associated with his education, career, and BTS activities—but it is not his birthplace.

He auditioned for the television talent competition Superstar K in Daegu in 2011. Although he was not selected for the show, several entertainment companies offered to cast him. He chose Big Hit after seeing RM perform, eventually debuting with BTS in 2013 as the group’s youngest member, or maknae.
