BTS member Jungkook has made a surprise move by launching his personal YouTube account, 'Bam's Dad'.

Despite no word from the Seven singer, the reception to his new move has been crazy, with the channel surpassing 100K subscribers within just an hour. Currently, the channel has over 450K followers and fans eagerly anticipate his first post.

The account was created in 2016, but it wasn't until recently the Golden hitmaker made it official. It remains unclear if JK will use the account to promote his music, or if it will be just another account where he fanboys over his dog Bam.
BTS' star eligible for the silver play button without any post
Without any prior notice or promotion, Jungkook's YouTube account exploded in popularity, racing to 100K subscribers in just an hour, making him eligible for the Silver Play Button honour.
The subscriber count continues to skyrocket and has currently surpassed 485k followers. Fans now cannot wait for his next move!
Jungkook's Instagram shenanigans!
In 2021, the internet went wild when all seven members - RM, Jin, SUGA, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook - launched their personal Instagram accounts. Fans worldwide raced to follow their favourites, with numbers hitting millions within hours.
However, Jungkook left the entire fandom in the lurch after he deactivated his account which had over 52 million followers, saying he no longer used the platform. Months later, the Standing Next to You crooner debuted the @bowwow_bam account where he posts pictures of his furry companion.
Meanwhile, on the personal front, Jungkook is currently serving his mandatory military service in the South Korean military. He will be discharged next summer.
