In a recent interview with WeVerse, Jung Kook revealed that he is working on solo material ahead of BTS’ hiatus, however, he is still learning to be comfortable singing in his natural voice.
“I want to receive a lot of recognition and hopefully be able to hear my own singing and think, ‘Wow, I’m really, really good,’” he said. “In other words, I want to be able to sing really well and feel comfortable doing so. I can’t feel that way every time I sing, but … I just want to be good. Now that I’m a singer and have appeared on so many different stages, there’s times I do such a good job up there that it gives me goosebumps, and with those experiences piling up, I keep thinking, How freeing and fun would it be to get up on stage and be able to sing the perfect song? Completely worry free, just like in my imagination.”
“Dreamers” is out 11/20.
