BTS appeared on a Naver V app live broadcast Tuesday while on a trip to celebrate Jungkook’s coming-of-age Monday.

Born in 1997, Jungkook, the youngest member of the seven-member boy group turned 19 this year. He covered the costs for the trip, including flight tickets for the fellow members.

Koreans typically give those who turn 19 rose, perfume or a kiss on the coming-of-age day, which is the third Monday in May.

“I can’t still believe the day has really come,” members said.

Members held a party to celebrate his coming-of-age a day before.

“I was hit very hard on my back by Jimin last night,” Jungkook said, while talking about his feelings on being recognized as an adult. “It still hurts.”

Members burst into laughter while discussing who should kiss Jungkook.

The exact region they are staying during the trip was not revealed.

J.Hope was excited to enjoy his journey after he clinched victories in music programs.

“BTS won three trophies in music programs. How exciting it is,” J.Hope said. “We just had a short stint, but we enjoyed it a lot.”

FNC Neoz School competitors expressed their thoughts after they watched the first episode of “d.o.b,” Mnet’s competition TV show where two teams -- a choreography team and a band team -- vie for debut.

The 3-minute clip showed trainees at the competition watching the first episode and reacting to the scenes. Trainees burst into laughter, seriously gazed at the screen without emotional change, or sometimes covered their faces with their hands when they made mistakes.

Competitors broke into groups made up of two or three to speak about their feelings in front of camera. Mostly they were confident that they would overcome the challenges.
