Along with the photocard and beautiful message, Jungkook also gave netizens a beautiful “Golden” perfume that matched the idol’s album concept.

The first thing that netizens noticed was that one of the main ingredients was “Tiger Lily.” Of course, it was significant as it is the birth flower of Jungkook, and ARMYs shared the deeper meaning of the flower that touched the hearts of fans.

Yet, when a fan posted a video of the beautiful bottle, something else caught the attention of fans. In the glass bottle, there was little gold flakes that once again matched the identity of the album.

While it could’ve easily been a special ingredient to mimic gold, ARMYs were shocked when the ingredients were posted, and it showed the perfume had real 24K gold flakes in them, which aren’t cheap.

After netizens saw how Jungkook had been “flexing” just for ARMYs, it wasn’t surprising that they had the best reactions. In particular, those who couldn’t attend the event and were seeing the gifts on their screens shared their “jealousy” but also how much they appreciated seeing Jungkook putting thought into his gifts.

As always, K-Pop idols go above and beyond for their fans. While the gold flakes fit in with the Golden concept, it showcases Jungkook’s love for ARMYs and what he really thinks of them.
He took the album’s title “Golden” literally!
