ARMYs are comparing to when Bang Si Hyuk posed with Australian musician The Kid LAROI, holding a sign that read, “LET LAROI DROP STAY!” Considering the subtle similarities, ARMYs are anticipating this is a teaser ahead of Jungkook’s solo music drop.

Additionally, Ju’s labelmate Justin Park reposted the photo, saying he was proud of him. Jungkook previously shared that he was listening to Park’s 2018 song “On the Low.”
After Jungkook shared that he listened to Justin Park’s music, Park expressed his excitement via social media. He has been a longtime ARMY.
I mean anyone can imagine what my reaction was, but I’m telling you it was FAR more intense than what you think. I literally cried. I laugh, cried if that makes sense hahaha. I literally couldn’t contain myself, so I just stayed up all night working on my socials making sure that everyone knew that this just happened because I was so damn proud.
