The live session took place on the fan community platform 'Weverse' on Saturday (July 22nd), after Jung Kook's captivating performance of 'Seven' on BBC's The One Show.
Eventually, the conversation turned to the explicit version of his solo song 'Seven', which was referred to as the "dirty version" by the fan.
Jung Kook was quick to clarify, asking, "Dirty version? Why do you call it a dirty version? It's just the explicit version. Why is that dirty? It's about being frank. Is it because everyone is different? Is that how you feel? I guess that can't be helped."
Jung Kook then went on to add, "I couldn't choose which of the two versions should I release. But I decided to release both. I thought it would be fun."
He continued, "How old am I? I do understand why ARMYs love me, and that's why I thought about it a lot. But I have to keep showing you new images or I can't be acknowledged. And this is something only I can do."
He even spoke about being the youngest member of the group. "Although among my Idol friends I'm not the youngest, I am the youngest of the group and there is this image, and many people really love it. And if I just follow that, there can't be any change. Shouldn't I help my fans accept me the way I am?"
Lastly, Jung Kook expressed gratitude towards his fans, saying " Before then, I was scared and didn't want to try anything new. I got courage from you all. But now I don't want to reveal my weak side to you. I want to be confident."
'Seven' is a song about wanting to be with the person you love all week. There are three versions of 'Seven,' namely clean version, explicit version, and instrumental version.
