### “I Feel Most Alive on Stage” — Jungkook on the ARIRANG Tour

The BTS ARIRANG World Tour launched last month at **Goyang Stadium**, marking the group’s much-anticipated return to the concert stage. Jungkook shared that despite the long gap since their last concert, the meticulous preparation meant there was zero anxiety on his end.

He described staying up at night in sheer excitement, imagining touring the world and finally reuniting with ARMY in person. His words about performing were nothing short of poetic — he said the chaos of a live show, sore throat and all, is paradoxically when he feels the most grounded and alive.

For fans who want to understand the cultural weight of the tour name, [Arirang](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arirang) is one of Korea’s most beloved folk songs and a powerful symbol of Korean identity — making the tour title deeply meaningful.

### Jungkook × Hublot: A Heart-Led Partnership

The Hublot collaboration is more than brand ambassador content. Jungkook explained that both he and the brand share an instinct-driven, feeling-first creative approach. Rather than over-explaining or rationalizing, both lean into atmosphere and emotion — a philosophy that clearly translates on stage and on camera.

The full pictorial is available in the **June 2026 issue of Harper’s Bazaar Korea**.
