Jungkook became one of the biggest talking points among BTS fans in Colombia after a playful moment during the group’s Bogotá concerts sparked a wave of social media reactions.

BTS launched the South American leg of its ARIRANG world tour with two shows at Estadio El Campín in Bogotá on October 2 and 3. The concerts marked the group’s first full-group performances in Colombia.

During one of the shows, Jungkook was giving his closing remarks when the atmosphere suddenly shifted as fans across the stadium began repeatedly shouting, “Papacito!”

Fans Turn Jungkook Into ‘Papacito JK’

In Spanish, “papacito” can be used as a playful compliment for an attractive man. The enthusiastic chant directed at Jungkook quickly became one of the memorable moments from the Bogotá concerts.

Videos recorded at the shows spread across social media, with fans sharing clips of the crowd calling out to Jungkook and reacting to his presence onstage.

The moment soon picked up its own nickname online: “Papacito JK.”

The playful exchange added to the excitement surrounding BTS’s return to South America, as concertgoers continued posting videos and photos from the two-night Bogotá run.

Jungkook himself was also a major focus of fan discussions, with concert clips circulating widely as fans shared their reactions to finally seeing him perform live in Colombia.

Following the Bogotá concerts, reports indicated that Jungkook remained among the prominent real-time trends in Colombia and internationally as fans continued discussing highlights from the shows.

BTS will now continue the South American portion of the ARIRANG world tour with upcoming stops in Lima, Santiago, Buenos Aires and São Paulo.

The regional schedule includes 14 concerts across five cities, giving fans in several more South American locations the chance to see the group perform together.

For now, however, the “Papacito JK” moment has given Bogotá fans another memorable highlight to look back on from BTS’s first full-group concerts in Colombia.
