Among the seven members of BTS, Jungkook is known for his early song covers of music artists from the United States. Now that the South Korean boy band is breaking records in the west, more music collaborations with American music stars should be coming up soon.

Prior to BTS and Jungkook’s appearance at the 2019 Billboard Music Awards, they launch the song “Boy With Luv” that features a collaboration with Halsey. Their recent tour across the United States and the United Kingdom has also opened possibilities for them to meet with several other big names in the pop music industry.

Billie Eilish

In April, it was Jungkook who said in an interview that he hopes BTS could create music with Billie Eilish in the near future. That was not surprising because Jungkook is one of the BTS members that obviously has a vast knowledge of American pop music.

The 17-year-old singer-songwriter, known for her take on electro-pop and indie pop music, has been one of the fastest-rising stars in the past couple of years. Eilish would be a great artist to collaborate with Jungkook's band. There are no plans reported yet on this matter, but it seems possible since BTS and Eilish are apparently fans of each other.

Ariana Grande

After Jungkook said he hopes to work with Eilish, he made headlines after meeting with Ariana Grande last month. Though it appears to be a quick meet-up after the "7 Rings" singer's Los Angeles concert. She even shared a backstage photo with Jungkook and revealed on Instagram how happy she was to meet with the K-Pop star.

Now fans are clamoring for the Jungkook's group and Grande to make music together. Nothing has been announced yet, but the amassing support from two huge fan communities would likely make it happen soon.

Tori Kelly

Another sweet backstage encounter that fans saw at the 2019 BBMAs happened between Tori Kelly and BTS. Most Armies (BTS fandom) know by now that Jungkook used to cover Kelly's songs and posted them online.

These three popular American singers have yet to make plans on working with BTS and Jungkook. But a little push from millions of fans worldwide would help make it all come true. Meanwhile, one confirmed music collab of BTS is with "Free Spirit" singer Khalid to happen soon.
