BTS member Jungkook recently became the center of online discussion after several executives and official regional accounts associated with Ducati interacted with a clip shared on his personal Instagram account @mnijungkook. On May 24, 2026, Jungkook uploaded a 36-second video of himself riding a Ducati Panigale motorcycle through scenic landscapes while dressed in Alpinestars riding gear. The clip featured Drake’s song Make Them Cry in the background and quickly gained attention across social media platforms.
Shortly after the video was posted, fans noticed multiple Ducati-affiliated figures reposting or engaging with the content. Among them were Siddhartha Varma, a Ducati executive linked to the Asia-Pacific region, and Francesco Milicia, who oversaw Ducati’s global sales operations.
The official Ducati North America Instagram account also reshared the clip through its Instagram story. In addition, Marco Biondi, one of Ducati’s senior executives of the Asia-Pacific market, reposted Jungkook’s video on his Instagram story and wrote, “Excited to see the final results mnijungkook.”
The interactions quickly fueled speculation online, with some fans wondering whether the activity could hint at a future collaboration between Jungkook and Ducati. Others discussed the possibility of the BTS member becoming a brand ambassador for the motorcycle company, although no official statement has been released by either Jungkook or Ducati regarding any partnership. One fan commented,
“JK x Ducati soon ?????”
Fans continued debating whether Jungkook could soon partner with Ducati with some questioning what Ducati executive Marco Biondi meant by “final results,” with a few speculating that the video could be connected to a future campaign or promotional collaboration.
Some fans said they had always hoped Jungkook would expand into a sports or motorsports-related partnership. They pointed out that the rumored collaboration with Ducati in addition to his existing associations with brands like Calvin Klein, Chanel, and Hublot, would further strengthen the singer’s global appeal. Several fans also expressed excitement over the possibility of seeing him in a future Ducati commercial or campaign.
BTS’ Jungkook searches for videographer during ARIRANG World Tour
Alongside the motorcycle clip, Jungkook also revealed that he was searching for a skilled videographer and editor to travel with him during BTS’ ongoing ARIRANG World Tour. The singer first shared the request through the caption of his Instagram post.
In the post, Jungkook asked interested videographer and editor to contact him if they were confident in filming and editing high-quality content. He later reposted the motorcycle video again through his Instagram story and repeated that he was specifically looking for someone capable of capturing “insanely good videos and photos.” He also joked that he would somehow manage to figure out the filming equipment himself if necessary.
The unexpected recruitment-style post quickly drew attention online and spread rapidly across multiple social media platforms. Fans widely reposted screenshots and clips from Jungkook’s Instagram stories, with many reacting to the unusual casting call from the singer during the middle of BTS’ world tour schedule.
Amid the online reactions, fellow BTS member V also joined the interaction. Responding to Jungkook’s search for a videographer and editor, V commented that he would instead look for a photographer.
Meanwhile, Jungkook is currently continuing the ARIRANG World Tour alongside BTS as part of the group’s North American leg of performances. The group recently held consecutive concerts at Allegiant Stadium on May 23 and 24 and is preparing to return to the same venue once again on May 27.
Following the North American shows, BTS is expected to continue the tour with additional stops across Europe, South America, Asia, Australia, and several other regions over the coming months. The ARIRANG World Tour is currently scheduled to conclude with its final performances in Hong Kong and Manila.
