While he recalled how firm his decision was, everyone else in the scene remembered how Jungkook held his back and cried hard just for him to stay. Although it was not the first time other trainees left, the young man might have found a core reason for his despair, knowing that J-Hope was departing.
Jungkook left Busan at a very young age with the hopes that one day, he will become a famous singer. He recalled how shy he was when he first came to Big Hit. There were times that he had to go shower in the evening to not disturb the others. But when he became closer to his hyung J-Hope, he found a parent who took care of him.
J-Hope became a role model for him in interacting with other members. Knowing that he was leaving BTS, Jungkook must have worried and therefore said, "Please stay Hoseok-hyung." At that point, the older BTS member pursued coming home, yet he was thinking things over. In the end, he finally came back.

He then was asked, "Why he decided to stay?" This is what he answered, "I decided to come back because of the members. Aside from the contract or debut, I had to come back because there were guys in the group who went through everything with me."
Once, J-Hope was ridiculed by antis saying he does not deserve to be part of BTS. The standards of other fans somewhat go beyond what musicians should truly possess. Nonetheless, J-Hope stood the test of time, and many would say that without J-Hope in the group, the boy band will never be the same ever.
