JK - “10,000 Hours” Cover + VLIVE Performance | Our Reaction

In his book, “Outliers,” Malcolm Gladwell asserts that the key to achieving true expertise in any skill is simply a matter of practicing (albeit in the correct way) for at least 10,000 hours.

This notion has stuck with us for years. So much so, that at the very beginning of the pandemic (when everybody was stuck at home, and schools weren’t yet fully equipped to transition to remote learning for students), we partnered with our younger sister to create a challenge for kids in our local community. We called it the “10K Hours Challenge,” and encouraged kids to submit videos of themselves practicing their sport/craft/passion. A brilliant 8-year-old pianist named Ben won the challenge. Let us know what you think about his piano skills!

THANK YOU JUNGKOOK for blessing our ears with your warm and beautiful voice…and allowing us to reminisce, celebrate, and look to the future all at the same time. 

On a final note, today marks a significant milestone for us. We (with all of your help) just reached 100,000 subscribers on YouTube! 🎉

It’s been a helluva ride so far, and we’d like to thank EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU for your support and UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. Without you, we would be nowhere. We feel incredibly blessed, and plan to be with you for as long as you’re willing to put up with us 😉 

The best is YET TO COME! BORAHAE!! 💜💜

Awweeee... I love this. And I look forward to joining you guys on your Korean language Journey soon 👍🏾

Hello Jared and Jordan talking about docu-series you have a lot of material to check. If you want to be surprised about the influence of BTS and the Will power of ARMIES around the globe, you can check this TV show where a Dr. and university profesor talks deeply about them. BTS EXPLAINED is the name of the video, very interesting information for baby armies as you and me I guess. https://youtu.be/Uaj1X76h2mQ

I always listen to Jks songs with my eyes closed. It's like being in heaven. He's got the gift ♡ Hope to see more JK content here, especially live stuff, he's amazing!

Heartflower

Would love to have the lessons but can't afford it. Glad you're having a great time with it though. It's great to have a teacher to help. Trying to learn it by myself, but it will take time. However willing to try!

Singa7⁷

Congrats on the 100k subs guys!!! Jungkook's lives are like private concerts for army, I love it so much. Also, I would like to recomend for you guys to please react to the video "Jungkook the main vocalist of BTS (updated version)" by IdaS, it's a great compilation of kook's talent, and also responsabilities and roles in BTS.

Thaís Cardozo

I really want to do the lessons with you guys. since I had to give up my lessons and it's harder to stay motivated doing lessons't by myself.

Rae Avilez

Thank you ALL 💜💜

BTS - Jared & Jordan

What an amazing challenge you did for your community. It takes a huge heart, a generous soul and a creative mind to come up with something like that. So proud of you guys. Great job and congrats to Ben too! ♥♥♥

Tanya G

Congratulations on 100K! Well deserved ❤️ I am excited for you!!

Johana

This so fun.

Kirssy Mago

If you like this cover that JK did, you should check out his cover of Harry Styles’ song “Falling.” It’s beautiful 💜💜 Also, congrats on the 100K subs!! Love you guys!

Megan Rue

congratulations on a major milestone! 100k subs! you guys deserved it.. congratulations!

KyCe7_

He does it all the time, whenever he is on VLIVE he take song request from ARMY and perform for us, we a very spoil 😀😀😀💜💜💜

Jackie chimchim

Hi Jordan, I would like to share with you that JK had said in one of his interviews before, he does not like changing the songs (melody) that he covers much but what he likes to do is add color to it by showing his emotions when he sings the song. This is what he did when he covered Justin Beiber's "Falling". That cover for me was the best JK has done so far. It literally sent shivers down my spine and as Jared just did now, I closed my eyes the whole time as it took me to a different dimension, somewhere serene and peaceful. Here's the link-https://youtu.be/22VOzqS_9ms. Can you please please react to this. Thank you.

RhadAnne

I will admit when he sang it on that live it was the first time I heard it and I thought it was more beautiful than the original after listening to it. Kind of like most songs the guys cover lol. I'm biased buy what can I say 🤷‍♀️ Congratulations on the 100k subscribers guys!! You set the standard for reactors and I'm really honored to be a witness of your BTS journey 💜 💜

There have been people refuting the 10000 HR Challenge. Personally, I believe it. In doing it, whatever it is that you need to learn or master, it will definitely be ingrained by then that it'll become second nature. Anywho, bravo on the 100k subs. Jared and Jordan, you nice! Keep going! Borahae! AFBF! 💜💜💜

Lane. L.

This 10K hour challenge original idea to spend time perfecting a skill. JK Vlives often turn into mini concerts. They give us so many nuggets in this form of media when they could be spending free time. And congratulations!

Jess Horton

Jungkook 💜💜🔥

Lara

Congrats on the 100K subs 💜 The basketball skills was awesome 💪🏼

Shalia

Congrats on your 100k subs my FAVE brothers!! 🙌🥰💜 You deserve it and mooorrreee!!! Thanks for this reaction 🙏 I always love it when JK does vlives, he sings for ARMY whatever we request from him. His voice is just effortlessly beautiful!! 😭🤧 And it's a good thing too that he does it impromptu like that coz whenever some haters say they use auto tune coz they can't sing, daenggg! -- I slap those vlives in their faces Lol 🤭 And wowww my FAVE brothers learned now to greet in Korean! Did you know they say that the Korean alphabet is the easiest alphabet in the whole world? Good luck on your journey Jared and Jordan! 💜 Finally, thanks for sharing that 10k hrs challenge you had. That looked fun! And yes, Ben is really talented! Wow 🥰 Thanks for giving me a really nice hump day today!! Looking forward to the next vid. Borahaeeee 💜💜💜

J-Lee

A really fun reaction could be to BTS japanese song otsukare, it's so upbeat and fun and comforting! it started as a song made by jhope and suga in 2016, but completely different than what you would expect them to do lmao. theres a live performace of bothe the sope (suga+jhope) version and one with all seven members.

Laura Jäger

Congratulations Jared & Jordan for the 100k subs! But more than that, congratulations for being able to touch young lives! Your 💜 does not fail to amaze. I have had some opportunity to mould young minds with my profession and I looooove Malcolm Gladwell’s principle of 10,000 hrs. I make sure to mention this esp on days they get discouraged. It gives them hope. You should look out for Angela Duckworth’s “Grit” book and Dan Ariely’s “Predictably Irrational”. All books whose ideas stuck with me as well. Love that I get your love for books as much as your love for Bangtan. 💜 Also.. JK, I think, is a good example of this 10,000 hrs principle. He mentioned in an interview once that when they started, he thought he needed to do something to be a good “main vocalist” for BTS that he “erased the idea of vocal training hours and sang every minute of everyday that he can”. Here’s a link to the interview: https://youtu.be/z2nxFv3-ZJA

Rache B

Wooohooo! 100.000 subs! That is a landmark. Congratulations Jared&Jordan! 보라해! 💜

Anja⁷

The Challenge you created for those little kids made me so happy🥹 And the videoclips of your sister playing basketball 🏀 omg sooo good and so interesting to see more of you two showing some basketball skills! Thank you for this context. I loved it.

Kiki

Congrats on your 100,000 subs! JK's "drunk karaoke" VLives are some of my favorites! Sometimes I just turn them on as I'm folding clothes or working from home. And he always says, "OK, last song" and then goes for another hour. He just loves to sing for us! 💜

Tiffany1013

I love Ben's smile! Thanks for sharing that.

Kecia ⁷

What a nice surprise! I’m really glad you got a taste of Jungkook’s vlive concerts. As many have also said, watching them is like free therapy 🥹 it’s true that JK has worked hard to establish his own signature sound and his vocal tone is super recognizable atp. Even if he doesn’t change up the cover’s arrangement too much, I usually end up liking them more than the original based on that alone but I might be biased 😅😅 in fact, his covers are what made me a JK bias! 🤣this is just a theory but I think he did a lot of these English covers early on to help him practice the language and his pronunciation. If you listen to them in chronological order you’ll see how much he’s improved! And yes, you can tell Jungkook loves the songs he sings which makes it even more enjoyable as the listener. Hope you circle back to more of his covers one day! Edit: omg and congrats on 100K! so well deserved for all the hard work and dedication you’ve put into the channel. 💜

Alana W.

Loved the reaction, thank you!! Hopefully you guys can dive into a few of the many vlive concert sessions that JK has put on for us soon!! He is amazing!💜

Tiffany Wang

A lot of people are talking about two V-lives that JK did, the first one is this one that he did on this birthday a year ago: https://youtu.be/gv7G7U-aOqE and the other one is the one you saw a short clip from: https://youtu.be/2VxM5Q4blnE There’s a lot of V-lives where JK is singing though so if you go to Weverse and then go to the “Live” category, you can choose for yourself which one you want to watch ❤️ Here’s a compilation in chronological order of Jungkook singing on V-live if you would rather watch that: https://youtu.be/ym3xAro8vGk

bts

You absolutely deserve the 100k! Congratulations guys!❤️

bts

Congratulations on the 100k! So well deserved!

Tina Leung

Jk's voice and confidence is something else. And congratulations on 100k. Deserving. Looking forward to vocal line reactions and Bon Voyage 🌌🖤💫⭐🌟 Thanks again J&j. 💫💫⭐

Amani ○°●•7

I can watch jungkook’s live anytime of any day lol he’s so entertaining. You should react to his live from last September on his bday… where Jin crashed in his live lol he of course sang a few songs please oleseee

blupand4

Oh that's such a great challenge to start!💜 Thank you both! Yes, I'd love to watch your guys' react to the guys covers! I hope you guys can check out more of Jk singing on Vlive sometime, he's so incredibly talented.

DanielleM

Jungkook is a huge Justin biber fan. They even were thinking of a stage name like "Justin seagull" before debute😅

Loredana de Caro

I love this cover of 10,000 hours. All the members have done covers, but I think JK has done the most. This is just one more reinforcement that you and BTS were meant to collide. First the "Never Walk Alone" connection and now the connection between JK's cover and your pandemic challenge. I bet as you continue your journey you will find more and more parallels. Congrats on 100K...you guys are superstars who achieved that milestone quickly. Now I am running off to buy my Yet to Come in Theaters tickets.

Laurie Brennan⁷

Congratulations!! 🎉 I suggest Ben to play “I need you” or “hold me tight” they both sound so beautiful on the piano!! As for jk covers I would love for you guys to check out Jk’s cover of Harry Style’s “falling” it’s so good 😩

Fernanda

A suggestion for Ben’s BTS’ piano cover if it does happen: “I NEED U” It’s soooo beautiful! 💜

zelly

I swear there is just something spiritual about BTS…it’s not coincidental..that a whole world or people from every corner find a connection with these boys….I mean the “you never walk alone”and now this song….10000 hrs….you can see the connection…I mean there is a good movement of love goin on with BTS and Army…it’s uniting people and making friends with people all over the globe…..just a real spirit lifter 💜💜And congratulations on 100k🙌👏👏👏

Angie7

Absolutely I want so bad for them to see his birthday Vlive where Jin is there for a minute….it’s the most precious thing and funny…the only thing is JK might sing songs they haven’t reacted to …my favorite is his most recent birthday Vlive and the one he did the day after the Festa dinner that sent us over the edge…he was remarkable at calming things down (us)🥹

Angie7

Watching this as I wait to board my plane back to Chicago 🫶🏼😁

Johana

Congratulations 🎉 I was watching yesterday for that number to click over to 100k! What you and your sister Kaia did for your community is amazing. Congratulations to little Ben! Watching JK just sit and sing is a treat. Even just singing along with a track is as good if not better than a recording. They do this every time. I hope 2023 brings even more success and happiness to you both. Borahae 🤗💜💜🇨🇦🥳🎉

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert

Congratulations you guys, you deserve it 🥰 JK karaoke on live is my favorite right up next to hope on the street. I think he really likes singing on live because it gives him something to do and interacting with armys by asking for song ideas. This is how we learned he doesn't know the lyrics to louder than bombs 😭 lmao

fox

Congratulations on 100k subs, you guys!!! 💜🫶🏼 Before I press play, I hope you guys react to BON VOYAGE again soon. Been waiting for the next episode for months now. Thanks! Love you guys so much!!! 🙏🏼😊💜

Eli Min

Jungkook loves a cover session on vlive. He has done this many times over the years and they're always stunning. My personal favourite time he's done this was the day after Festa was posted last year. The media was going off saying that BTS had broken up and it was a very upsetting and confusing time for Army's. JK went live, reassured us all that everything was ok, sang to us, and hung out for over an hour- he even washed his dished live on air at one point. Please react to more vlives (they are now on Weverse) there is a whole archive of them and it really helps to get to know the members more and understand a lot of Army's inside jokes. There have been some iconic ones over the years that we can direct you to. Borahae!

Kathy⁷

He is so great singing on v live. I love his cover to Falling by Harry Style 💕 💔. You really should watch a full Vlive of his singing. I love the one he did from home right after last years Festa. His voice is so great.

Hyland

Yes yes yesss to Come Back Home! I can't believe how they managed to stay true to such an iconic song while making it so unmistakably bts at the same time. It might even be one of my fave bts songs!

soyaspinsxxx

Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 you guys deserve it. All the work you both put in for our entertainment is so appreciated. Your channel brings so much happiness and laughter to my life I look forward to seeing what is Yet To Come 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 💜💜 BORAHAE💜

Salena G

If you loved this, you'll be happy to know JK does these impromptu performance vlives all the time! He sits for hours chatting with army and taking song requests, and he's always so flawless 😭 And yes you said it right, he's a complete popstar. It shows in his voice, presence, and music taste. HOWEVER, my favourite kind of JK is rnb JK. I find he has a lot more colour in rnb songs or maybe they just match my vocal taste better, I don't know! If you wanna check this side of him, I can't recommend listening to his BTS solo song My Time enough.. It's my favourite from him. Just insanely creative melodies and sexiness 🔥

soyaspinsxxx

Wow! That’s so inspiring. Thanks so much for sharing 💜 Funny enough JK loves to do 2-3 hour livestreams where he sings for Army. He chooses songs from the comments and does mini concerts in his studio. He even composed a song on live one time with a lyric challenge he did with Army on Weverse. On Live he’s covered JB, Silk sonic and many western and Korean artists including bts older songs and solos Ooh a cover detour seems fun! One of my favs has got to be Come Back Home by Seo Taiji & Boys. BTS even performed it live. They completely ate it up and made it theirs hahahah

Maya001

Congratulations! JK always sings for ARMY when he does a Live by himself. He blesses us with his beautiful voice. 💜💜

Veronica⁷

Jungkook loves Justin Beiber, so he covered many of his songs in the past. 10,000 hours fit Jungkook's voice so well and his English has improved so much. I couldn't even tell Jungkook was a non-native English speaker because he sounded so fluent. During that vlive he sang a bunch of songs both in Korean and English, definitely check out the video called Jungkook Singing On Vlive. I can't believe Jungkook is so sweet enough to give us live concerts for free! 😭 aww that lesson was so cute you guys have great pronunciation! I had a huge smile on my face I feel so proud 😭

Alishea

Such a lovely song. Actually Korean is their first language. They all spoke or had a grasp of Japanese before they ever thought they would need English. I’m amazed at his/their progress.

Tricia

Thanks so much for reacting to this! Cover rabbit hole and other hidden tracks are much welcomed 😁 JK's VLives are notoriously long, its basically a free request concert. There's a running joke about how he says "Just 1 more song", and proceeds to sing another whole hour. He loves performing for us just as much as we love to listen. Really recommend sitting down for a whole live one day if you have the time rather than snippets, it's much more satisfying that way.

Kaz

Congratulations on your 100,000 subscribers! That’s how awesome you all are! 💜

Cherry Valens

If you guys like this cover you should check out JK singing Falling. It's amazing!!! Falling https://g.co/kgs/scQPTM

Adama⁷

it’s funny you call jungkook a pop star bc that’s actually one of his nicknames among army. a local on twitter saw him performing or something and called him a “funky little pop star” it’s been a favorite since. also yes!! jungkook does impromptu singing a lot!! just like the vlive you watched, he gets on live and does concerts for us. whatever we request usually and they go on for hours. he’ll say “okay last one” and then go on for another hour at least. it’s so enduring. i highly recommend yall watch some of them. jungkook is such an amazing singer it actually makes me mad sometimes. he’s worked so hard on his voice that he makes it look effortless now.

shelby🖤

What an awesome challenge!! I’m so happy y’all did this! I love JK’s lives so much!! They are like free therapy. He does concerts for Army on live sometimes for an hour or 2 however long he feels like. He takes requests from Army. He’ll sing BTS songs, his songs, Korean songs, Western songs. He doesn’t always know all the lyrics but always sounds beautiful. Sometimes when I’ve had a tough day I go back & watch one of his V-live concerts. I hope y’all can watch a full one some day. They are so fun!! Thank y’all for reacting to this!

Kimberly W.

Thank you so much for this reaction! What a like a wonderful surprise. JK has made so many covers in a range of genres in both english and korean, which are absolutetly beautiful. During his vlives he takes fan requests and covers them, and I'd recomend watching one sometime (even though they are known to be about an hour long lol) He did one on his birthday where he sung both bts and other songs and there were some gorgeous high notes, and he adds some nice adlibs, if you're intrested.

Laura Jäger

JK'S covers are some of the Best like Harry Styles "Falling". One of my favorites is his cover of Adam Levine's "Lost Stars". JK sings with such emotion.💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

genevieve higuera

Congratulations guys I'm so proud best is indeed yet to come.

mettemirella

I’m so proud of you for what you did for people during the worst of Covid. I rank you right with BTS in the goodness you bring to all of us.

Tricia

congratulations J&J! please share a video with us of your Silver Youtube Play Button when you get it! 😁 more power to you and your channel 🤗💜

mheng93

Hi thank you so much for this !!! Are you guys going to react to Dark and Wild album??? I am looking forward to it💜

dyxqdthyfv

Looking forward to watching this! And huge congratulations for that YT milestone!! No one deserves it more than you two. I can’t wait to continue watching and supporting you both on your journey. Sending big love always 💜💜💜

Abbie

Wow what an awesome challenge you guys created!!! I look forward to watching this video later, but I'm so happy you chose to react to JK's live. I had so much fun watching it back then.
