Jungkook's 'Seven' Surpasses 3 Billion Streams, Airport Earbud Moment Goes Viral
June 23, 2026
BTS's Jungkook has set a new record as the first Korean solo artist to surpass 3 billion streams on Spotify with his single 'Seven.' Additionally, a heartwarming scene of him sharing earphones with V at the airport has become a trending topic on social media.
On June 23, 2026, Jungkook and V made an appearance at Incheon International Airport as they headed to Madrid, Spain, for the next leg of their 'ARIRANG World Tour.' The duo's departure was crowded with fans and media, but the highlight was undoubtedly Jungkook and V's earbud moment.
Jungkook appeared wearing a black Supreme beanie, a denim jacket, and holding a green banana keychain. V stood out in a blue padded jacket featuring a 'Sleepy' bear character he had drawn himself. As Jungkook walked toward the departure gate, he realized he had left his AirPods at home and comically hit his head in surprise. Shortly after, V handed him one side of his wired earphones, and the two were captured walking together while listening to music.
As soon as the airport video was released, social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter) were flooded with reactions such as 'Tae-Kook sharing earphones!' and 'Their chemistry remains unchanged after all these years.' One fan imagined, 'I bet Jungkook is sitting on Taehyung's lap on the plane right now listening to music together,' while others relayed messages wishing the members a safe flight to Madrid.
Fan accounts also shared creative interpretations. Account @darlingtaekoo humorously reconstructed the dialogue: 'Hyung, hyung~ / What, baby? / I left my AirPods at home / Oh? Then I'll buy you new ones when we arrive / No, I want to listen now. Let's share / How can we share while walking?' Another account, @kookvtwins, transcribed the duo's conversation, 'Isn't the sound too loud?' capturing their playful dynamic.
While BTS continues to fulfill their ARIRANG World Tour schedule, the members' warm and everyday chemistry continues to win fans' hearts. V's hand-drawn 'Sleepy' bear jacket also drew attention, showcasing his artistic side. Meanwhile, Jungkook's 'Seven' continues to show steady growth, supported by global fandom and the members' heartwarming presence.
