BTS' youngest member Jungkook is known for being a humble superstar, despite being immensely talented and globally famous. His legion of fans around the world can vouch for his manners and professionalism. The lead singer of BTS seems to have left a lasting impression on the choreographers of the FIFA Qatar 2022 World Cup song, Dreamers. F' Carla and Fiorella, two of the talented choreographers who worked on the song, recently shared their experience working with the Golden Maknae.
In an interview with Korea.net, the two of them praised Jungkook's remarkable work ethic and undeniable talent. Carla spoke about Jungkook's humbleness, professionalism, and quick learning abilities. She described him as a breath of fresh air, compared to other artists.
