BTS Jungkook departs Japan two days after returning from the U.S.... Fans concerned about the hectic schedule ahead of the holiday

BTS departed for Japan again just two days after finishing his schedule in the United States. After returning through Incheon Airport in the early morning of the 21st, Jungkook boarded a flight to Japan at Gimpo Airport on the 23rd. That day was the day before Korea’s Chuseok holiday and Japan’s ″Shubun no Hi″ public holiday, marking a holiday period for both countries. On the afternoon of the 17th, Jungkook left for Las Vegas, USA, through Incheon International Airport and performed songs such as ″SWIM,″ ″Mic Drop,″ ″2.0,″ and ″FYA″ on the stage of the ″2026 iHeartRadio Music Festival″ on the 18th (local time). After returning on the 21st, he immediately proceeded with his schedule in Japan. On the same day, J-HOPE was also reported to have departed for personal schedules. Even on the first day of the holiday, BTS members continued their busy schedules. News of Jungkook’s trip to Japan quickly spread on the 23rd through videos and photos of his departure from Gimpo Airport released by Dispatch on X (formerly Twitter). Fans who witnessed the scene reacted to Jungkook’s bare face and long hairstyle, leaving heartfelt comments such as, ″I don’t know what no-makeup Jungkook is doing to me, he’s just perfect,″ ″I missed you so much,″ and ″He’s so handsome it makes me sad.″ Among fans, there were also voices of concern about Jungkook’s ongoing schedule during the holiday. A Japanese fan said, ″Just a moment ago, I was hoping you would rest well during the Chuseok holiday, but now you’re heading to Japan again,″ and there was speculation that ″this might be another CK-related schedule.″ Another fan expressed a wish, saying, ″Have a safe flight, and I hope you get some rest this time.″ In the Dispatch video, Jungkook was captured closing his eyes while going up the escalator, and opening them when a reporter spoke to him. Fans noted that he appeared tired amid the intense schedule. Through social media, fans expressed their hope that ″at least during this holiday, he can rest comfortably even if just for a short time.″
