Jungkook spent part of his break with ARMYs because he missed them. He gave them updates on life before singing karaoke.

Another artist who received a thank you was JYP entertainment band DAY6while a viewer asked Jungkook to sing their songs “You Were Beautiful” and “HAPPY.”

However, Jungkook claimed that he couldn’t sing DAY6’s songs because they were “too loud”.
We could have asked Jungkook to cover DAY6’s “You Were Beautiful” and/or “HAPPY” in his live today, which is also Young K’s birthday (12.19), but he said both are too loud 😭 pic.twitter.com/rATZCQHOgA

Yet, one moment still amused fans, as Jungkook referred to DAY6 as “sunbaenim.” He forgot that BTS actually debuted more than 2 years before DAY6. While BTS debuted on June 13, 2013, DAY6 debuted on September 7, 2015.
“yeppeosseo is the day6 sunbaenim… they are our sunbaenim, right? they must be…” BROTHER LITERALLY FORGOT BTS DEBUT 2 YEARS BEFORE DAY6 😭😭😭😭😭 https://t.co/p9wEWljNT7

the way he stuttered mentioning day6 as his sunbaenim is taking me out because he probably thought day6 members were the same age as epik high 😭 https://t.co/maWrBt97nC

MyDays (DAY6 fan) attributes Jungkook’s mistake to the DAY6 members’ “uncle energies”. All members are younger than the oldest member of BTS, Jinbut most are 30 or older (the Sense, Dowoonbut he will turn 30 next year).

you can tell they just took him away from the band’s rehearsal room, like daughters grabbing their father to do Tiktok challenges 😭 https://t.co/iWObZ6IFD6

It was a cute mistake on Jungkook’s part, and fans can’t blame him!
