The Han river in Seoul, South Korea’s capital, will be home to a custom-themed cruise ship. Jungkook will be the first celebrity to have an illumination show in the capital, as well as his own custom-themed cruise ship parade.

Fans in the city of Busan, where Jungkook was born, will hold a launch campaign at the Haeundae tourism zone’s Blueline Park. In Indonesia, ten LED birthday banners will be dedicated in Kuningan, south Jakarta.
