The sentimental gesture of V (Taehyung) gifting Jungkook a unique silver ring has become a heartwarming symbol of their unbreakable bond and deep-seated friendship within the BTS group. This ring, featuring an endearing heart-shaped design, serves as a poignant reminder of the profound connection shared between the two members.
The ring has been affectionately referred to as a "friendship ring" by fans, who have been touched by the thoughtful gesture. Notably, the ring has made appearances during various public events and performances, subtly yet significantly highlighting the strong and abiding connection between Jungkook and V. As a result, the ring has become an iconic representation of the Taekook bond, cherished by fans worldwide who admire the beautiful friendship between these two talented artists.
About the Taekook bond
V aka Taehyung played a significant role in helping Jungkook overcome his shyness. As a sociable and carefree individual, Taehyung easily connected with Jungkook, who had previously struggled to open up to others. In fact, Jungkook had admitted to being very shy, even among BTS members. Taehyung's friendly nature helped bring Jungkook out of his shell, and it is believed that V was one of Jungkook's first real friends, thanks to his unique ability to connect with people of all personalities.
In Korea, age is a significant factor, but Taehyung's non-traditional approach allowed Jungkook to treat him as a friend without adhering to typical Korean age boundaries. Their compatible personalities also fostered a strong bond, as they share common interests in games, music, dramas and more. This camaraderie was even jokingly noted by Jimin, who teased that Taehyung and Jungkook frequently shared music with each other, but not with the rest of the group.
Taehyung and Jungkook share a deep trust, often keeping each other's secrets. Examples of this include Jungkook quickly learning the lyrics to Taehyung's song Scenery and being the only member present when Taehyung first watched the Winter Bear MV. Additionally, during an awards show, Jungkook had a minor incident that he preferred not to discuss and Taehyung was the only one who knew about it, accompanying him to the bathroom and leaving the other members curious.
