Jungkook reveals the reason why he's afraid of love and hesitant to start a romantic relationship

  

The trend of "dating decline" and the so-called "no dating/no marriage/no kids generation" has become increasingly common among young people, especially in South Korea in recent years. The South Korean government is truly very concerned about this trend because it directly affects the population crisis, and even the survival of the country.

Some of the main reasons why young people, especially in South Korea, are afraid of love or reluctance to start a relationship are said to be: economic and financial pressure, social and cultural pressure, psychological and self-confidence issues, the influence of social movements such as the "Sampo Generation" (the generation that gives up dating, marriage, and children) or "Honjok" (living alone, enjoying life alone), strong individualism and independence...

Among these reasons, most young people fall into the first category due to the rising cost of living while salaries remain meager. Money also determines the following psychological reasons and issues. But this is certainly not Jungkook's loss of reasons, as he is someone who already possesses financial stability, status, and fame.

 

If you are a man with enormous wealth and a solid career like Jungkook, perhaps there would be no reason for you to feel insecure about dating at all. But over the years, he has never shown signs of "escaping from being single." Many ARMYs believe that the career of an idol is a big reason why it is difficult for him to date a woman.

In reality, that is not the most important issue. For Jungkook himself, there is more than one reason why he is still not ready to step into a romantic relationship!

First, Jungkook once shared that his Virgo zodiac sign greatly influences his personality as welll as the relationships around him. With a careful and reserved nature, he only gets close to people he knows, mostly men and friends in the industry.

On the other hand, it is easy to notice that even though he is still single, Jungkook is very shy about meeting girls, even when it's work-related. There are many videos showing him "running away" from female artists or hiding behind other BTS members to avoid interacting with the opposite gender.

 

Next, Jungkook also revealed his weakness in love, which is not being proactive in relationships. Jungkook shared that it is difficult for him to be the one to start a conversation with a girl or to take the first step in a relationship. And that is exactly why he likes girls who are more proactive in a relationship.

 

Jungkook admitted that he is not good at expressing affection. In South Korea, couples usually do not show too much affection in public but instead use indirect ways. For example, through affectionate nicknames, wearing couple accessories, or matching outfits. But even with these methods, Jungkook still finds it difficult to do.

 

He also added that he is afraid of being the first to say "I love you." But this is also what makes Jungkook feel guilty if he loves someone, because he fears they might think he doesn't love them enough, or that the person will feel hurt because of his lack of outward affection, Therefore, if he does not love, he would rather not start, and that way he would not hurt anyone.

 

 

Next, a special point is that Jungkook admitted he is someone very difficult for others to adjust to. Specifically, in one live broadcast, Jungkook once emphasized this by responding to a fan's comment. When that ARMY commented, "Jungkook, marry me," he asked whether she could endure him, because he is not someone that is easy to live with.

Jungkook seriously but also humorously said, "Marrying me? But can you handle me? I'm not someone that's easy to handle." Perhaps, there are certain special habits and a personality not easily expressive of feelings that he considers a limitation in a romantic relationship.

In addition, another important point Jungkook mentioned is that he thinks dating a celebrity in South Korea is not easy at all. Even if he wants to keep his girlfriend's identity private and protect both their privacy, it would be impossible because of too much public attention.

 

It can be seen that Jungkook is worried that he is not ready and lacks many things to give his girlfriend a safe and happy love. But this very aspect of him reflects how much of an ideal and warm boyfriend he actually is. Just hearing him talk about these things and imagining it already makes fans feel jealous of his future girlfriend.
