When Jungkook did a live stream on the global fan platform Weverse before enlisting, Jin commented, "Jungkook, please contact me." Jungkook replied, "Brother, wait a little longer. I have time to contact you, but I often go back and forth overseas, so the timing doesn't match. I might go overseas three times this month? I'm sorry for going back and forth overseas. Let's meet when I'm on vacation." Jin told Jungkook, "J-HOPE and I exchange 300 emails a day," eliciting laughter.
