I learned the choreography right after my arrival in Qatar. I learned the last chorus part just a day before the stage, and I learned the rest by watching the video and adding my own color to the stage."

JUNGKOOK explained, "Before going to bed, I also rehearsed by myself in my hotel room while playing the music on. I can't say I was fully satisfied (with the stage), but I enjoyed it without making a big mistake."

The BTS member then expressed his thanks to fans, saying, "Thanks to the fans, I was able to gain a lot of confidence."

To this, fans commented, "I just can't believe that he still managed to perform so flawlessly.", "You did so well on stage.", "I'm so proud of you, JUNGKOOK!", and more.
