Why BTS's Jungkook Couldn't Help But Feel "Adrift" Before Debuting Solo

BTS‘s Jungkook recently sat down for an interview with Weverse Magazine. Here, he delved deeper into his thoughts as of late, ranging from his goal as an artist to the new things he learned.

Regarding the latter, he is currently experiencing new things while promoting his first solo song “Seven.” Jungkook realized early on that it is a vastly different experience from what he is used to as a member of BTS.

He admitted to feeling lonely at times as his routine is much different now as a soloist. For one, he is not interacting with as many people as before.

You know, I meet a lot of different people when I’m working with the group, whether intentionally or not.

He added that he’s also incredibly busy nowadays. He can’t help but feel “adrift” or lost at times because of the lack of social interaction and personal time.

I used to go home and get some rest after finishing up work, but it’s not like that lately, so I’ve been feeling adrift.

The BTS maknae is making sure to address these concerns. The most important is that he’s spending more time resting and hanging out with his loved ones—including the other BTS members.

I’ve been taking it easy, and now I want to be around other people—like hanging out with the other members or someone else. I want to hear from other people.
