' management company, HYBE, has finally responded with a statement. Rumours surfaced on October 7th, stating that Jungkook was not able to accept an invitation to join Usher in the 2024 Super Bowl Halftime Show because he enlisted in the military in December of 2018.

The news devastated the ARMY, or army of worldwide fans, who were expecting Jungkook to be the first

K-pop

artist to walk the historic platform.
Even with the uproar, HYBE's reaction to the circumstance was strikingly succinct: "We have nothing to say." Fans feel that the agency mishandled Jungkook's enlistment schedule, and their disappointment has only grown as a result of this lack of acknowledgement. Regarding the situation, cultural analyst

Kim Heon Sik

made the following statement: "HYBE disregarded the significance of this stage, which led to the cancellation of Jungkook's Super Bowl halftime performance." I sincerely apologise for the way the artist was managed.

Jungkook has accomplished a great deal on the international scene, notably with his solo album GOLDEN, which hit important benchmarks on the Billboard charts. In addition, Jungkook made history by becoming the first K-pop performer to appear at the FIFA World Cup opening ceremony in

with his rendition of Dreamers. Many fans believe that showcasing his talents and solidifying BTS's status in the music business would have occurred had he performed at the Super Bowl.

Fans are still vocal about their unhappiness and are hopeful that HYBE will take more responsibility for how they are handling Jungkook and the other members of BTS.
