BTS’s Jungkook makes a shocking confession about taking “dozens” of pills… “It wasn’t advice from a pharmacist”

[Sports Seoul | Reporter Kim Do-hyeong] BTS’s Jungkook drew fans’ attention by revealing the supplements and household medicines he was taking during a live broadcast.

Jungkook communicated with fans through a Weverse Live broadcast on the 1st. Although he was extremely tired because it was early morning, he did his best to overcome his drowsiness and continue the broadcast.

At one point, he looked around, saying, “I need to take magnesium.” He soon revealed his medicine bag, saying, “I’ll show you the vitamins I carry around. This is my medicine bag. My vitamin bag.”

Jungkook then took a bag containing dozens of white medicine bottles out of his medicine bag, awkwardly laughing as he said, “There’s a lot.”

However, that was only the beginning. Repeatedly saying, “There’s a lot,” Jungkook proceeded to take out morning vitamins, prescribed medicine for a cold and tonsillitis, household medicine prescribed after his liver levels increased, medication he takes when he cannot sleep, and medicine for skin inflammation and allergies.

As he explained each medication one by one, he said, “Scientifically, there are sayings like, ‘It’s better to take fewer than five vitamins,’ and Jimin also said something like that. Of course, I didn’t set this up after receiving advice from a pharmacist or anything. Still, I didn’t feel particularly uncomfortable when I took them.”

However, he added, “When I feel it’s too much, I take a multivitamin,” and “I take this for two or three days, then go back to taking it the usual way.” Jungkook later made sure to take his magnesium.

Fans who saw this commented, “His liver won’t be healthy if he takes that much medicine,” “Let’s stop drinking,” “I’m worried,” and “It must be difficult to publicly talk about taking medicine, but he’s honest,” among other reactions.

Previously, Jungkook had also revealed that he visited a hospital for a stress fracture when he held a live broadcast with V last month. At the time, the two expressed concern for each other over their health issues, and V drew attention by confessing that he had developed hearing problems after beginning his military service.
