BTS member Jungkook made a grand comeback at New York Fashion Week (NYFW) Spring/Summer 2026, marking his first appearance at the global event since completing his military service in June. Attending the show as Calvin Klein’s global ambassador, Jungkook set social media ablaze the moment he stepped into the venue.
The 28-year-old arrived in a tailored beige suit, paired with a bold statement necklace that highlighted his sharp styling. Fans couldn’t help but notice the peek of his extended chest tattoo beneath the blazer and his distinctive face piercings, including his much-talked-about chin pin. Jungkook’s effortless charisma—waving to fans, flashing a boyish smile, and interacting with cameras—sent ARMY into a complete frenzy.
Social Media Explodes With Fan Reactions
Within minutes of his arrival, Jungkook’s photos and videos went viral across platforms, quickly dominating trends worldwide. On X (formerly Twitter), his name crossed more than 40,000 mentions in just hours.
Fans showered him with love, calling him the highlight of the event. “He absolutely stole the show!” one user wrote. Another gushed, “You’re a dream, Jungkook.” Some fans couldn’t hold back their humor, with one saying, “Was there even a fashion show? He literally just showed up, sat down and left. I’m so confused.” Another ARMY quipped, “The one screaming is so ME—I would’ve passed out on the floor right there if Jungkook was that close.”
The mix of swooning reactions and playful banter proved once again how Jungkook commands unmatched global attention. His mere presence at NYFW was enough to overshadow the runway itself.
Jungkook’s Journey With Calvin Klein
Jungkook’s association with Calvin Klein began on March 28, 2023, when he was officially announced as the brand’s global ambassador. Since then, he has fronted multiple campaigns, from edgy photoshoots to striking ad films that highlight both his versatility and the label’s iconic minimalism.
This latest NYFW appearance further cements his position as one of the most influential fashion icons of his generation. For ARMY, it wasn’t just about his dashing visuals, but also about witnessing his triumphant return to a global spotlight after military service.
Spotted leaving Incheon Airport on September 11, Jungkook’s trip to New York was closely tracked by fans, who ensured his arrival trended even before the show began. His ability to singlehandedly dominate a worldwide event highlights his enduring popularity and crossover appeal beyond music.
