BTS star Jungkook has voiced his support for the ongoing student movement in Bangladesh, which is centered around fighting discrimination. The movement has sparked widespread attention, both within the country and internationally. Celebrities from various fields, including showbiz and sports, have expressed their concerns and solidarity with the students.
On Sunday night, August 4, Jungkook posted a picture on Facebook featuring a child with a blindfold standing in front of the Bangladeshi flag. In his message, Jungkook wrote, "The people of Bangladesh are going through a difficult time. I am praying for them. Wishing you well." The post quickly caught the attention of his fans and followers, who praised the star for his support.
It is unclear whether the Facebook page belongs to Jungkook officially or if it is a fan page. Despite this, the post has resonated with many in Bangladesh, especially among his fanbase. BTS, the globally popular South Korean band, has a large following in Bangladesh, with Jungkook being one of the most beloved members.
Jungkook's expression of solidarity comes at a time when the student movement in Bangladesh is drawing increasing international attention. The movement began as a response to ongoing discrimination and has grown into a broader call for justice and equality.
Jungkook's recent musical releases have also kept him in the spotlight. His single "Never Let Go," released in June, is dedicated to BTS fans. Before that, his first solo album, "Golden," released in 2023, achieved significant success, reaching number two on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart.
As the situation in Bangladesh continues to evolve, the support from international figures like Jungkook adds to the global conversation, highlighting the importance of standing up against discrimination and injustice.
