BTS’s Jungkook is just 50 days away from finishing his military service, and fans are beyond excited! The countdown to his discharge has already started, and social media is filled with cheers and messages of support from ARMYs all over the world.

On April 21, at 9 p.m. KST, the hashtag #Golden_Return_Jungkook (황금빛귀환_정국) took over the global trending list on X (formerly Twitter), reaching No. 2 in real-time trends. This was all thanks to a massive online campaign from fans celebrating Jungkook’s D-50 milestone.

Along with the main hashtag, others like #다시빛날_정국의시간_D50, #50DaysToShineJK, and more popped up, showing just how excited everyone is for his return. By the next morning, #황금빛귀환_정국 stayed in the top 10 globally, ranking at No. 6, and fans couldn’t stop expressing their love for Jungkook.

Fans posted messages like, “So excited for the golden pop star’s return,” “Can’t wait for Jungkook’s solo activities after his discharge,” and “Jungkook, let’s take over the world again!” It’s clear they’re not just waiting—they’re preparing for a celebration like no other.

Even while serving in the military, Jungkook’s star power has never dimmed. Last year, he made history with a live broadcast on Weverse that gathered an incredible 20.2 million views in real-time, becoming the platform's most-watched stream ever. His connection with fans only grew stronger, proving that his impact is global.

But it’s not just about his music—Jungkook has also been making a difference with his charitable acts. He donated 1 billion KRW (around 750,000 USD) to support wildfire recovery efforts in Ulsan, Gyeongbuk, and Gyeongnam. Later in 2023, he donated the same amount to Seoul National University Children’s Hospital, earning admiration for his kindness and positive influence.

For Jungkook, his return isn’t just about leaving the military—it’s the start of a brand new chapter. Fans are already buzzing with excitement, knowing that the next phase of his journey is about to begin.

The countdown to his return is on, and it’s clear that Jungkook’s 50-day wait will only make his grand comeback even sweeter.

The hit drama Weak Hero 2 is taking over both streaming charts and fans’ hearts—and now it’s bringing massive attention back to the original Naver webtoon Weak Hero.

According to Netflix's Tudum Top 10 update on April 30, Weak Hero 2 pulled in a huge 6.1 million views (based on total watch time divided by full runtime) just three days after its release. It grabbed the #1 spot on the Global TOP 10 Non-English TV Series chart.

That’s not all—right after it dropped, the drama soared to the top of Korea’s TOP 10 Series and even made the TOP 10 charts in 63 countries, including Brazil, France, Mexico, Belgium, Morocco, Greece, Indonesia, and more.

This follows the success of Weak Hero 1, which previously ranked #8 and stayed on the global chart for five weeks straight.

With all eyes on the new season, fans are now rushing to read the original webtoon, leading to a massive jump in popularity.

The webtoon, which first started in May 2018 and wrapped up in November 2023, is famous for its intense storytelling and emotional depth.

It tells the story of Yeon Si Eun, a quiet and seemingly weak student who turns into a top fighter at a violent school—giving fans a unique and gripping coming-of-age story.

After Weak Hero Class 2 aired, many viewers started reading or re-reading the webtoon from beginning to end. As a result, sales of the webtoon have shot up more than 20 times compared to its average monthly sales after completion.

The series has also been turned into printed books, a mobile game, and even emojis, and has been exported to 9 countries, including North America.

When the first season of the drama premiered on Wavve in 2022, it held 45% of the platform’s total viewing share, proving its wide appeal.

Fans are now hoping for a new sequel season of the webtoon, and the franchise is being praised as a perfect example of how a strong original story can keep growing through great adaptations.
