BTS Jung-kook has been selected as the first Korean to headline the U.S. Great Lives series.

The Jung-kook edition of the children's book series "My Itty-Bitty Bio" will be published this August. Publisher Cherry Lake Publishing introduced the Jung-kook edition, stating, "BTS youngest member Jung-kook rose to global stardom at age 15," and described it as "a book that easily explains Jung-kook's life and his influence, from world tours to military service." This series has featured figures such as George Washington and Edison since 2016 as U.S. educational biographies.

Jung-kook was also published as the first Korean singer to headline the "Brain Candy Books" educational series for U.S. elementary students this year. Previously, he appeared as a Han Guk-ui (CEO) figure in a U.S. state government-operated public library's country introduction book.

Jung-kook set a record as the first Asian artist and the first Yoo Il (수상) at the "2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards" and the "2024 People's Choice Awards." Additionally, he was selected as the first and only Korean male singer on "Rolling Stone's" list of "The 200 Greatest Singers of All Time." At the Billboard Music Awards, he won a total of three trophies over two years.
