On March 17, 2021, in the recent episode of her own talk show, Jessie also made her comeback with Nuna Nana. After her comeback, she also performed her latest single titled, What Type of X. The singer went on to talk about the creative process and other details. It was only later that she took on the fan’s questions, to which she answered in a straightforward manner.

One question that the fans were curious about was her ‘ideal type of guy’. Jessie revealed that it was someone from the South Korean boy band, BTS. The hint was enough for her co-host Cho Jung Shik to guess that the member who has gotten ‘manlier’ is none other than Jungkook. Further, one can also see her revealing that she would love to have a duet with him, despite him being a superstar. She said, “Jungkook is like… he’s a superstar. You have to think realistically”.

Shortly after the clip from her talk show went viral, Jessi trended on Twitter under ‘Jungkook’ category. As many of her fans are aware that actor Ha Jung Woo is her eternal crush, the revelation about her crush on Jungkook, shook her fans as well as BTS' ARMY. A fan commented that he ‘cannot believe his eyes’ and questioned, ‘Jessi is a Jungkooker?’. Another one shared a meme and captioned it as ‘she maybe famous’ and further asked her to ‘get in the line’. A netizen shared a picture of Jungkook and sarcastically wrote that she bets that Jessi has ‘this Jungkook picture’ of his My Time performance and that she has watched it.

Well, this isn’t the first time that BTS’ Jungkook has received such admiration. According to All KPop, there are several other celebrities such as Kim Hee Sun, Han Hye Jin, Lee Re, Stray Kids’ Bang Chan and others, have expressed their admiration for the singer. International celebrities such as Toni Braxton, Liza Soberano, Jesica Ahlberg, James Corden and Maisie Williams, have also declared having a bias for the BTS’ member.
