Out of all seven BTS members, Jung Kook is the one who sports the most tattoos (with Jimin following closely behind). Despite having multiple designs on his body, Jung Kook didn’t hesitate to pick out which one of his tattoos was his favorite in a recent interview with SiriusXM.
When host Michael Tam asked the global superstar if he had a favorite among his many tattoos, Jung Kook immediately referred to one on his right forearm of a tiger flower. “I like my birth flower tattoos because of its flower language. It means ‘Please give me love,'” Jung Kook said. “It’s beautiful and painful at the same time, so I like it.”
Jung Kook has over 14 tattoos, all with their own unique meanings — the “Seven” singer notably has the word “ARMY” tattooed over his knuckles, the number seven behind his ear, “0613” for BTS’ debut date and more.
Elsewhere during Jung Kook’s chat, he revealed that while he is still preparing more solo material, it likely won’t be coming out soon. “I don’t know what exactly will be next, but I am working on my music, so please look forward to them,” he said. “I don’t have specific set plans yet, but I’m trying to focus on doing music for now.”
In the meantime, Jung Kook will continue to promote his chart-topping single, “Seven,” featuring Latto. The track made him the second member of BTS to score a No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 following the song’s arrival on July 14.

On SiriusXM, Jungkook was asked about his favourite tattoo and why it was so. The BTS singer said, "I like my birth flower tattoos because of its flower language. It means, 'Please give me love'. It's beautiful and painful at the same time, so I like it."
In short, Jungkook's 0613 tattoo is more than just body art; it is a symbol of love, gratitude and unity, representing the unbreakable bond between BTS and their dedicated fan base, the ARMY while serving as a constant reminder of the meaningful date when the fan club was established and the incredible journey that BTS ...
Jungkook used to have a massive eye tattoo on his arm. However, the singer covered it up because he came across many people who disliked the tattoo. He also said that a few told him that the tattoo reminds them of Illuminati. Jungkook also addressed the question about regretting getting a particular tattoo.
Here's the answer to your question: "0613" represents the day BTS debuted! RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook debuted as BTS on June 13, 2013. Now that I think about it, Jungkook's tattoo could have said, "061313," but maybe he chose "0613" because the "13" could stand for the day and the year?
RM got '7' inked near his ankle, J-Hope got his tattoo on one of his calf legs, Jungkook got it behind his ear, Jimin got it on his finger and Jin on the back of the waist.
All the BTS members are very sweet. But in terms of innocence, imo, J-hope and Jin are the most innocent ones. Although all of them are cute and innocent in many ways, J-hope and Jin seem to be more child-like than others. J-hope being the sunshine, is always goofy, so is Jin.
South Korean law permits only licensed medical practitioners, as opposed to tattoo artists without medical degrees, to open tattoo parlors, although it is not illegal to have a tattoo. Only the army prohibits tattoos.
That's right: while Jimin and Jungkook have a handful of known (and hidden) tattoos, Jin, J-Hope, RM, V, and Suga only have one piece of body art each.
BTS' Jungkook revealed that the 'ARMY' tattoo on his finger knuckles, which was the first-ever inking he got, was his way of expressing gratitude to his fans.
It's when BTS debuted! They debuted June 13th, 2013, which means instead of it just meaning June 13th it could also mean June 13th, 2013 and it was just shortened!
The J is actually supposed to be a smiley face. This is because the letter J represents a smiley face icon in the Wingdings font. Microsoft Outlook, a popular e-mail client, automatically converts the :) and :-) text emoticons into smiley face icons using the Wingdings font.
V's ink collection is minimalistic, with just one notable tattoo gracing his skin: the BTS friendship tattoo located on his leg, positioned just above his knee.
Jungkook has many tattoos on his right arm. Do you know the hidden meaning behind them? The Golden maknae of BTS band Jungkook is celebrating his 25th birthday today. This is no news that the singer is a big fan of tattoos and has his right arm covered up in ink.
The “Rather Be Dead Than Cool” tattoo located on his left arm, is a phrase by Keith Haring, an artist known for his social and political commentary through art. It could signify Jungkook's desire to remain authentic and true to himself rather than conforming to societal expectations.
For example, an eye tattoo on the arm might symbolize strength and protection, as the arms are often associated with power and defense. Meanwhile, an eye tattoo on the back could symbolize a desire to have one's back watched over or to keep a close eye on one's surroundings.
An eye and a clock face representing the iris is a tattoo that has become so common among men. This tattoo connotes both an appreciation for the motion of time as well as the keenness of time management. Men who know the great worth of time are best suited to wear this tattoo. #
