BTS Jungkook’s Honest Thoughts About Dating And Marriage
Recent dating rumors, including those that link Jungkook to aespa‘s Winter, have rekindled interest in the BTS star’s love life.

Nowadays, BTS’s members rarely answer questions about their love lives, such as what their “ideal type” is or what their romantic aspirations are. But in the past, Jungkook seemingly hinted at being a hopeless romantic. By now, many fans know that IU was, at one point, his ideal type.
"Do you have any girlfriend?"
"No I don't."
"Do you have someone on your heart?"
"Me? Ah.. I have ideal type."
"Who is she?"

Newer fans might not be aware that the BTS star dreamed of a movie-like kiss with his future partner when he was younger. During BTS’s rookie era, Jungkook expressed his wish to experience a kiss like the movie Love 911. This 2012 Korean movie tells the story of a doctor and a widowed firefighter.
In a movie called 반창꼬 (Love 911), there is a scene where the movie character lifts up his girl with both hands and kisses her. I want to experience that at least once before I die.
— Jungkook
Jungkook once also shared that he believed he would hear bell sounds when he meets his soulmate, just like he saw in the Japanese animated movie Your Name.

The infamous perilla leaf debate also gave ARMYs some very amusing insight into what “boyfriend Jungkook” might be like. Jungkook had zero patience for any leaf-peeling incidents between his hypothetical partner and a third person.

When it comes to marriage, Jungkook of the past had all the patience in the world. During a fansign, when all the BTS members were asked what age they would want to get married at, the BTS maknae answered, “100!”
