On June 29 airing of 'Flower Boy Bromance', Jungkook shared the story about his first encounter with his partner Minwoo!

During the show, they revealed that the two stars first met back when BTS were rookies. Jungkook explained, "We were called to Shinhwa sunbaenim's waiting room when we were rookies, because we introduced ourselves too loudly. The sunbaenims provided advice for us, and told us that our greetings should be more precise. That was when I first saw Minwoo sunbaenim, and I was scared."

Minwoo added, "BTS's introduction was kind of unprofessional. It's important because its the way the team will be known, but after our advice, they did well."

Jungkook then expressed admiration, and said, "Minwoo is a sunbae that I greatly respect. It's difficult to last as a singer, but I realized that it can be an admirable job when I saw Shinhwa sunbaenims."

They may seem scary at first meet, but they are the coolest sunbae's. They are not stuck up, they are very social, they reach out to their hoobae's and most importantly they understand the tough life of an "idol" yet they accept and embrace that title. I'm not entirely sure what BTS's motto is, but like a comet moving forward we are Shinhwa! #charmy4life

I was so happy because before he said that he does not have any friends so when I heard that he was going to on celebrity bromance I was so happy because I feel like he has become more open and now looks like he can get along with girls (so cute).

this greetings aspect is so weird imo. just say hello, no need to ahve special group greetings and all. It all just comes off as fake and unsincere

It made me extremely happe to hear from Jeongguk that that's their plan apparently. I mean, probably most groups want that but considering that maybe RapMon or Suga could go solo it's great to hear that they don't intend to actually go solo! :)
