Fact check: Did BTS' Jungkook announce solo world tour with 20 countries including India on list? Truth behind the viral claim
A rumoured list claiming Jungkook is going on a solo world tour, including a stop in India, has gone viral, but there¡¯s no official confirmation from the singer or BigHit Music. Fans may be hopeful, but for now, it¡¯s just speculation.
All seven members of BTS are finally back from the military, and fans have been thrilled to see updates from nearly everyone except Jungkook. Known for his spontaneous livestreams and candid fan interactions (often sharing more than he probably should, not that anyone¡¯s complaining), Jungkook¡¯s recent silence has sparked a wave of speculation.
While some unverified reports suggest he¡¯s currently filming Season 2 of his variety show Are You Sure? with Jimin in Switzerland, a new viral claim making the rounds online says Jungkook has announced a solo world tour¡ªand that India is reportedly on the list. But what's truth? Let's break down.
Jungkook's 'solo world tour list' goes viral
A few videos on Instagram have sent Indian BTS fans into a frenzy, thanks to a viral list that hints at a potential Jungkook solo world tour with India included. The rumoured tour list features 20 countries: South Korea, Japan, Australia, United States, China, Brazil, Mexico, Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Spain, Canada, United Kingdom, France, Netherlands, Germany, Singapore, and Hong Kong. While nothing has been confirmed, the list has quickly gained traction online, especially among Indian ARMYs, who are hopeful this could mark the first-ever visit by BTS or any of its members to India.
Fans have been demanding a Jungkook solo world tour
Ever since Jungkook was discharged from the military, fans, especially his solo stans, have been eagerly calling for him to go on a world tour, something he¡¯s previously expressed interest in. The idea of seeing him perform his solo hits live has only added to the anticipation. So far, Jungkook has released just one solo album, GOLDEN, which was a massive success. Tracks like Seven, Standing Next to You, and 3D became instant chartbusters, further proving his global star power. However, Jungkook has also been vocal about wanting to expand his discography before embarking on such a major journey. For him, a tour isn¡¯t just about performing.

Fact check: So did Jungkook really announce his solo world tour?
Absolutely not! While the rumoured tour list has taken over fan pages, there¡¯s no official source backing it. Neither Jungkook nor BTS¡¯ agency, BigHit Music, has announced any solo world tour plans. The singer hasn¡¯t posted anything on Weverse about it either. Jungkook, who deleted his personal Instagram last year, now uses his dog Bam¡¯s account, "Bam¡¯s Dad", and that account has been completely silent since his military discharge. Even BTS¡¯ official Twitter account hasn¡¯t hinted at anything related to a tour.
