BTS Jung-kook shone his global presence as his personal Instagram account surpassed 20 million followers.

Jung-kook's personal Instagram account, newly created last July, recently exceeded a cumulative 20 million followers.

Jung-kook's Instagram account reached 20 million followers in about nine months since its launch. Although he opened his Instagram account last July, he began uploading posts in earnest in February this year.

Among a total of 10 posts, the "Hooligan" challenge video Jung-kook posted on the 22nd achieved the highest view count, surpassing 100 million views in just four days. Additionally, there were as many as five videos with over 50 million views.

Jung-kook's "Hooligan" challenge video recorded more than 2 million reposts within two days of its release, setting a major record as the third most-shared post in Instagram history (1st: Lionel Messi with 2.6 million, 2nd: Taylor Swift with 2.5 million).

This record is even more remarkable given the vast difference in follower counts: Jung-kook has 20 million followers, while Lionel Messi has 500 million and Taylor Swift has 280 million.

Previously, Jung-kook boldly deleted his personal Instagram account, which had 52.4 million followers in May 2023. This figure, equivalent to the population of South Korea, drew further surprise.

In addition, Jung-kook's personal account on the global short video platform TikTok recently surpassed 29 million followers.
