BTS performed in London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Monday night (July 6), where the ARMY spotted a playful Jinkook moment – Jungkook piggybacking Seokjin as the duo sang on the stage.
The video has since gone viral on X, with Jinkook fans going crazy over the cuteness of Jinkook’s bond. Here’s how netizens have been reacting to it:
“i took this photo, I hope you will cherish like I do. happy jinkook”
Some fans were heart-eyed over the bond the two band members shared, while others expressed gratitude for the Arirang World Tour that helped them witness so many moments between the BTS members.
For the unversed, Jinkook is a popular ship name for the youngest – Jungkook – and the oldest – Jin – members of BTS, which was coined by Jungkook himself in a 2015 interview. Despite their 5-year age gap, the duo is always the most playful around each other and shares an adorable sibling energy.
BTS will perform their second London concert tonight – on Tuesday, July 7 – before moving on to Germany, where they have two shows in Munich’s Allianz Arena on the coming weekend (July 11 and 12).

Besides the viral Jinkook moment, BTS made many memorable moments on London’s stage on Monday, one of which was them jokingly taking credit for England’s victory against Mexico on the same day.
After England defeated the Mexican soccer team on Sunday (July 5), RM congratulated the audience for the victory, while jokingly adding:
“Congrats on the win last night. We always bring the luck to every place we play. When we played in Belgium, Belgium won. Now that we’re in London, Britain won. You see?”
RM also apologized to their British fans for returning to perform in the country after seven years, saying:
“There was Covid, there was military, and now we’re here in 2026 together. I missed you so much, and thank you for all coming.”
Before Monday night, the last time BTS graced a stage in London was in 2019, when the pop band earned the title of the first-ever South Korean act to headline at Wembley Stadium. They had plans to return to Britain in 2020, but shows were cancelled in light of COVID.
Suga also chimed in, thanking the fans for their patience as he remarked:
“I’m still feeling the emotion I felt seven or eight years ago. I don’t think you guys have changed. You’re still in a passionate country.”
Meanwhile, J-Hope expressed his “honor” to be playing at the stadium where South Korean captain Son “Sonny” Heung-min first gained global recognition.
