Earlier this month, Jungkook also appeared on The Kid Laroi‘s new single ‘Too Much’, which also featured UK rapper Central Cee. The song is expected to appear on the Aussie singer’s long-awaited debut album ‘The First Time’ in November.

In other K-pop news, former SF9 member Rowoon has revealed that it was “not an easy decision” for him to leave the K-pop boyband, saying he did it because he “wanted to become more serious about acting”.

Meanwhile, TXT member Soobin has revealed that he became a K-pop idol because he “wanted to meet” iconic girl group KARA.
