Recently, BTS‘s Jungkook showed off his “magic” for ARMY, but it isn’t the first time. Over the years, Jungkook has dabbled in his share of hocus pocus to delight fans and entertain his members. Here are 7 of his tricks!
1. Disappearing Cigarette Butt
Jungkook made part of a cigarette vanish from his hand in a video that went viral on January 23, 2025.

2. Hand Through Hand
From March 20 to March 24, 2019, BTS performed a 4-day LOVE YOURSELF concert in Hong Kong. At the final concert, Jungkook surprised fans with a mini magic show. He locked his hands together and pulled one hand through the other. Have you figured out the secret to this trick?
3. He’s willing to lend a hand…literally.
In 2018, Jungkook made his “hand” vanish while shooting BTS’s Love Yourself: Answer concept photos.
4. ARMY Magic
Jungkook once performed this card trick during a livestream. “A” is for “ace,” but also for ARMY!

5. Now you see it. Now you don’t!
In the behind the scenes video for Episode 132 of Run BTS!, BTS warmed up in a hot tub after being relentlessly soaked with pool water by the staff. During that time, Jungkook “magically” made the marker on his palms disappear (by rubbing it off underwater).
6. Make It Glow
Jungkook turned his drink into a lamp by placing a burning candle behind it. It might not be the most impressive trick, but it certainly looks cool!
7. Levitating Potatoes
On Run BTS!, Jungkook’s sweet potatoes were so sticky that they ended up being more of a magic show prop than a meal.
