BTS Jungkook has celebrated his 25th birthday together with fans in a V Live video on September 1. The "golden maknae" communicated and even blessed his fans with his singing and beatboxing during his live broadcast.

BTS Jungkook Birthday Live Stream Garners 9.6 Million Viewers

BTS Jungkook birthday live amassed more than 9.6 million viewers, which is considered an amazing feat on the platform and by the septet member.

In his live stream, Jungkook sang for his fans and also talked about different things, like his photo folio and his hair.

The BTS member serenaded ARMYs with "Bad Decisions," "Left and Right," "Paradise," "Love Is Not Over," "Coffee," "Just One Day," "Blue and Grey," "Louder Than Bombs," "Love Maze," "Butterfly," and "Ddaeng." 

But as over 9 million ARMYs flocked to his birthday live stream, Weverse kept on lagging and eventually crashed. In the end, BTS Jungkook had no choice but to start a new one.

ARMYs React To The Lagging Video

In a post, a fan expressed their amazement at how many viewers BTS Jungkook had for his birthday celebration live stream on Weverse. The author stated that the video lagged for over 30 seconds.

"I just went to Weverse and it was so laggy I got pissed."

Others said in the comments that they couldn't even join the live stream anymore since there were over 9 million viewers. One also confirmed that views were real-time, and that it's the highest record in 2022 so far.

"He's only 26? He's damn young. How much did he already achieve at that age... Anyways, happy birthday!"

Meanwhile, international fans also have many things to say about the Weverse app.

"The live streaming function on the weverse app is actually garbage, I hope it gets fixed soon. Anyways, Jungkook sang beautifully on the stream and it made me realize how much I've missed his voice these days."

"Jungkook is so endearing his live was so funny but weverse live sucks the servers can't handle bts traffic and there are no subtitles for a month"

"hybe is pushing weverse hard by the looks of it. getting their idols to do weverse lives (even tho their servers can't handle it) and the whole no physical albums for the solos and only weverse links."

BTS Jin Makes Surprise Appearance on Jungkook Birthday Live Stream

In the middle of his broadcast, BTS Jungkook was surprised when his hyung Jin suddenly went into the room with a birthday cake!

Then, after the BTS member saw the camera, Jin cutely reminded ARMYs of his own birthday after greeting fans.

The BTS leader also got a bit tipsy after drinking with Jungkook and hugged the birthday boy. Fans find the interaction very endearing and jokingly said that their leader was fishing for "best hyung (older brother)" comments.

Happy birthday again, BTS Jungkook!
