BTS Jungkook Helps Boost Justin Park’s Career
During an interview with Bandwagon, Park shared how BTS Jungkook unknowingly impacted his music career.

In December 2021, BTS Jungkook shared Park’s song, “On the Low” to his Instagram Story.
At the time, not many people knew who Park was. But when they saw BTS Jungkook listening to the song, ARMYs also tuned in to Park’s music.
Shortly after Jungkook shared “On the Low” on his social media account, the track became viral online.
Two months later, the music video for “On the Low” already has 2.8 million views and still counting.

Park literally experienced the so-called “BTS Jungkook Effect.” This means that whatever BTS Jungkook wears, buys, listens to, and does immediately go viral because of his millions of followers.
So, when Park learned that BTS Jungkook posted his song on his Instagram Story, he could not be more grateful.
In fact, Park said that he was so overwhelmed with emotions that he ended up crying and laughing at the same time.
Since “On the Low” was shared on Jungkook’s IG account at around 4 a.m., Park said that he couldn’t share the news with anyone because his family and friends were asleep.
Park also said that he was unable to sleep because he was so happy. So, he just worked on his socials to make sure that everyone in his life would know what just happened.
