BTS’s Jungkook has certainly evolved from being the shy, reserved “Golden Maknae” into a more confident and outspoken member of the group. Recently, during BTS’s appearance on Wired’s “Autocomplete Interview,” Jungkook surprised fans by revealing a flirting technique that he claims can help someone attract attention. This happened when the group was responding to various fan questions that were pulled from Google autocomplete searches. One such question had fans curious about what Suga was afraid of. Suga admitted that he dislikes amusement park rides and heights, but the conversation quickly shifted to a more intriguing topic—eye contact.

During the interview, V made a light-hearted comment about Suga’s fear of making eye contact, explaining that it made Suga feel nervous. As the members continued discussing this, V pointed out that when performing their new song “Hooligan,” Suga tends to avoid direct eye contact with others and instead focuses on the dancer’s lower lip. This sparked an interesting reaction from Jungkook, who pointed out that looking at someone’s lips can be perceived as flirting. V, curious, asked Jungkook how he should look when trying to avoid this kind of situation. Jungkook then stepped in to explain what he called an “infamous” flirting technique.
With a matter-of-fact tone, Jungkook revealed the so-called “triangle” method of flirting. “You look at the left eye, then the lips, and then the right eye,” Jungkook explained, demonstrating the movements with his hands for emphasis. V, who was still somewhat confused, responded by saying, “That’s a V,” referring to the shape that the eye movements created. Jungkook, however, quickly corrected him, saying, “No, it’s a triangle.”
The other members, particularly RM and Suga, were a bit skeptical and doubtful about this technique. RM jokingly compared the “triangle” flirting technique to picking a fight, probably because the motion of quickly shifting one’s gaze between the left eye, lips, and right eye seemed aggressive. But Jungkook was quick to clarify the difference. He told RM and Suga that while this technique might look like a confrontation at first, it’s all about the smile at the end. “You have to smile at the end,” Jungkook said, reinforcing that the gesture is not meant to intimidate but rather to express attraction or affection.

Jungkook’s explanation of this technique had fans in stitches. The humor of watching the older BTS members react with skepticism to Jungkook’s knowledge of flirting didn’t go unnoticed. Suga, in particular, made a memorable moment when he seemed utterly flabbergasted after Jungkook pointed out that his habit of staring at people’s lips could be interpreted as flirting. Fans took to social media, sharing their amusement and laughing over the fact that the once-shy Jungkook was now teaching his older members how to flirt. Many were surprised by how much more confident he seemed compared to his younger, more reserved years.
Jungkook’s interactions with V and the rest of the members became the subject of much fan chatter, with many joking that the “Golden Maknae” was now the “Master of Romance.” It’s fascinating to see how far he’s come since his earlier days with BTS, where he was often seen as the quiet, innocent member of the group. Now, not only is he fully aware of the dynamics of flirting, but he is confident enough to teach his more senior members the tricks of the trade.
Social media exploded with memes and posts showing Jungkook’s newfound skills in flirting. Many fans commented on how Jungkook’s playful demeanor and infectious personality made him an unexpected expert in this area. Some fans also pointed out that it seemed as though Jungkook had been using this triangle method himself. They pointed to moments during BTS’s interactions, such as when Jungkook seemed to employ the technique with V, as evidence that the “Master of Romance” was putting his teachings into practice.

The reactions from the BTS members to Jungkook’s flirting technique were equally entertaining. The typically composed RM and Suga appeared both intrigued and embarrassed by Jungkook’s boldness. RM, ever the one to approach things with skepticism, couldn’t help but tease Jungkook about the triangle method, suggesting it looked more like a fight than flirtation. Suga, on the other hand, seemed caught off guard by Jungkook’s casual confidence in discussing such a topic. His earlier admission about avoiding eye contact for fear of confrontation had now turned into a humorous and revealing moment where he learned that his previous behavior could have been perceived as flirting.
The more senior members’ reactions to Jungkook’s flirting advice sparked a variety of reactions among fans. Some were delighted to see the younger member so confident, while others found it humorous that Jungkook, who once appeared shy, was now teaching his older bandmates how to get the attention of their crushes. The scene captured perfectly the dynamics of BTS’s brotherhood, where even the older members are willing to listen and learn from their “maknae.”
In conclusion, Jungkook’s quick lesson on the triangle flirting method has become a fan-favorite moment from the interview. It shows how far he’s come as a person and how his interactions with the other members continue to entertain fans around the world. As the group continues to evolve both as individuals and as a unit, moments like these highlight the unique personalities and relationships that make BTS such a beloved group. The “Golden Maknae” may have started as the shy youngest member, but now, he’s confidently leading his hyungs in the art of romance.
