V and Jungkook have grown up a lot since they met, and so has their friendship.
They sat down for a touching one-on-one conversation to share their feelings about this, and more.
He was the easiest person to talk to before, but as we started spending time on our own, there was a side of things that started to feel a bit awkward with V. He used to joke around all the time, but he’s more reserved now.

By talking it out, they were able to become closer, like they were in the past.
After that, although things are exactly the way they were when we were younger, it still felt like some things have gone back to the way they used to be.
