He took first place with an approval rating of 34.72% of the total number of votes. In particular, winning the title is more meaningful as 2022 is also the year of the black tiger.
On January 15, BTS will release a webtoon where they are the main characters, titled, "7 Fates Chakho." Jungkook will then play the role of Zeha, a half-human, half-tiger, establishing his brave tiger image.
Meanwhile, Jungkook, who topped the list, will receive a 2P commercial issued by Rolling Stone Korea at the end of January.
BAE173 Hangyul, Wonho, SEVENTEEN Hoshi and More Named as 'Idols with Brave Image of a Tiger'
Following Jungkook, Hangyul from the group BAE173 placed second with 30.94% of the votes. Also called the "vegan tiger," for his masculine physic yet soft charm and personality.
Wonho then trailed behind Jungkook and Hangyul in third place with 16.44% of votes. In particular, Wonho's name itself why he deserved his spot speaks a lot, since Wonho is an amalgamation of the Korean word for "foundation" and "tiger."
Along with them, male idols who expressed their strong love for tigers such as NCT Mark, SEVENTEEN Hoshi also entered the rankings. Hoshi even coined the term, "Horanghae (I tiger you)", a combination of the word and phrase, " tiger" and "I love you," respectively. Hoshi's stage name also means, "gaze of a tiger," which perfectly fits him.
Leeseo, the youngest member of IVE, entered the rankings, who earned the modifier "Baby Tiger" from fans for her strong charms and talents despite being the maknae.
