Jungkook's birthday is tomorrow (September 1), and what better way to celebrate the Golden Maknae of BTS than with a binge-worthy movie marathon featuring all his favourite series and films? Whether you're an ARMY or just looking for good K-dramas and iconic films to stream over the week, Jungkook’s watchlist is a perfect mix of romance, fantasy, and feel-good vibes, just like him.
So, let's straight dive into this curated list of six shows and movies personally loved or recommended by Jungkook, all available on Netflix, Prime Video, or JioHotstar.
Jungkook's favourite K-dramas and movies
Hotel Del Luna – Netflix
It’s no secret that Jungkook is a massive IU fan, so of course Hotel Del Luna makes the cut. This fantasy K-drama follows Jang Man-wol, a beautiful but moody CEO of a hotel for ghosts, cursed to run the place because of a sin from her past. Then, there's a human hotel manager, and you’ve got a mix of the supernatural, emotional drama, and jaw-dropping visuals. IU is stunning, the storyline is gripping, and it’s the perfect spooky-but-sweet watch.
Twenty Five Twenty One – Netflix
If you enjoy stories that tug at your heart, Twenty Five Twenty One is a must. This coming-of-age drama is about chasing dreams, first love, and dealing with the curveballs life throws at you. Jungkook’s soft spot for emotional, youth-centered stories shines through with this pick. Warning: You may cry... a lot.
Business Proposal – Netflix
Want something light, fun, and full of chaotic romantic energy? Jungkook loved What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim, and Business Proposal is in the same universe of adorable K-drama rom-coms. It’s about a blind date gone hilariously wrong (or maybe right?), with swoon-worthy leads and lots of cheesy moments. The perfect feel-good binge.
Titanic – JioHotstar
Jungkook once mentioned Titanic as one of the films that left a lasting impression on him, and let’s be real, it’s a timeless classic. The 1997 James Cameron epic tells the tragic love story of Jack and Rose aboard the doomed Titanic. Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet’s chemistry is unforgettable, and the film still hits just as hard today.
Our Beloved Summer – Netflix
Guess what, BTS members V sang the title song for this K-drama and Jungkook loved the web show. This rom-com has heart, humor, and healing, three things Jungkook appreciates in any story. Our Beloved Summer is about two ex-lovers who once vowed never to meet again but are thrown back together for a documentary project. It’s warm, relatable, and filled with moments that will make you smile (and maybe tear up a little).
Love 911 – Amazon Prime Video
Last but not least, Love 911 is a lesser-known gem that features one of Jungkook’s favourite romantic scenes. The 2012 film revolves around a rugged firefighter dealing with emotional scars and a no-nonsense doctor who hides her pain behind a tough exterior. Their unlikely romance is both tender and inspiring, and the chemistry? Chef’s kiss.
Kpop Demon Hunters - Netflix
BTS’ Jungkook revealed that Netflix’s viral animated film KPop Demon Hunters made him cry, especially during the emotional climax where Jinu sacrifices himself for Rumi. The movie, released in June, has become a global hit, with BTS even joining dance challenges and singing its songs. The makers are currently working on a sequel.
From swoony romances to emotional rollercoasters, Jungkook's favourites shows his soft heart, fun personality, and love for storytelling. Happy watching, and happy birthday to Jeon Jungkook!
