The moniker Taekook is a combination of the first names of two members of BTS—Kim Tae-hyung, more commonly known as V, and Jeon Jung-kook, better known as Jung Kook.
V and Jung Kook have become inseparable, like criminal partners, despite being the group’s youngest members. This ensures that they will always be scolded together, regardless of who is at fault, and that they will always be coupled.
This occurred in a segment of the Burn The Stage documentary where V was being informed about a topic and Jung Kook was also drawn into it, even though the subject didn’t directly affect him.
Fans wasted no time taking advantage of the opportunity to trend Taekook on Twitter as the two had a charming missed high-five moment in the most recent RUN BTS dancing practice video. Instead of focusing on this occasion, let’s revisit past heart-wrenching instances involving V of BTS and Jung Kook.
Taekook Moments that Shows How Jung Kook and V from BTS are Similar
Unique Handshake
They greet each other with a secret handshake, which is the most soulmate-like gesture imaginable. Whenever the two members are overjoyed to see each other, they still employ the secret handshake they cooked up during an episode of BTS Gayo. “I love you” and “I promise you” are signs that they use when shaking hands.

Jung Kook Cooks For V
Among the many iconic Taekook moments brought to us by In The Soop 2 was V’s use of aegyo to have Jung Kook fry pork belly for him. The latter is renowned for his culinary prowess, whereas V is not, hence V is tasked with washing dishes whenever BTS is in town. So that V might have a substantial breakfast, Jung Kook got up and painstakingly fried the pork strips, even though he was exhausted and first refused to.

Famous Selca
Because of the dearth of content they provide—including selcas—Taekook is a highly sought-after duo. Because they are both somewhat shy, the members’ social media activity is largely mood-dependent.
No one anticipated a selca to follow the two members’ V LIVE broadcast on Parents’ Day, which was their first in four years, as they made flower crowns and bouquets. Their fans were both surprised and delighted by the duo’s generosity because this was their first selca in quite some time.

Karaoke Party
Because they are no official sub-unit songs featuring Taekook, their combination is much sought-after by fans. In spite of years of demands from fans, Taekook remains one of the few sub-units that has not yet released music as a unit.
Fans who have long wished for a Taekook sub-unit finally got their wish when V and Jung Kook performed SG Wannabe’s Timeless together in In The Soop 2.

Turning Enemy into Lovers
V kicked a large ball into the face of a sleeping Jung Kook in a Bangtan Bomb film, waking him awake. Ignoring the fact that his phone had fallen out of his hoodie pocket, an enraged Jung Kook pursued a giggle-faced V down the hallway.
Nevertheless, they quickly reconciled when the videographer discovered them cuddling and sharing a mattress as if nothing had transpired. Many Taekook fans consider this adorable scene to be one of their favorite moments.

Let’s remember when Taehyung kicked the ball to Jungkook and they ended up cuddling to sleep 🥺💕

Being Happy Together
They were completely unprepared to catch him after this tumble during “Permission to Dance” at SoFi Stadium.
Jungkook’s Keyboard Smash Recreation
V attempted to ruin Jungkook’s typing game in Run BTS! Episode 133 by closing his browser. As if his already-humongous keyboard wasn’t bad enough, Jungkook hit the space bar to “delete” V!

To the disappointment of ARMYs around the world, Jung Kook had to back out of V’s original intention to play games with him because of family obligations.
