Well, you all call him this too.
You see hyungs call him “Jeykey” quite often.
*Hyung: older brothers. (JK is the youngest in the group.)
Jin uses this the most.

6. JungGugie
#정구기 [jung-gu-gie]
Jungkook+ie
Very commonly used the written name on Twitter.
K-Armys feel too formal to write “정국이” the correct way. “정구기” is grammarly wrong, but friendly, can feel aegyo, somewhat saying “he is our baby”.

“Jungkook lives like he has no tomorrow.”
Meaning he dares to treat hyungs like they’re the same age.
(Koreans are strict in the hierarchy by age. Even within brothers. Maknae JK teaches (scolds) hyungs in the clip, is really a funny scene for Koreans.)
전루살이 [Jeon-ru-sal-ee]
13. Muscle Piggie
Members made this nickname.
Jin says he can build muscle so easily, even by using spoons at the table.

13. Jungkook58
58[o-pal]: oppa (58 is read oh,pal in Korean)
hahahahahahahahaha
K-Armys have a saying, ‘JeonJungkookOppa’ is his real full name.
(Have no conscience, will be fine)
14. Haggo
하와이꼬질이[Hawaii Ggojilie]: Hawaii dirty(cute expression)
JK’s face sunburnt around lips and down looks he got dirty.
He in Hawaii is called “Hawaii Ggojilie”, shortened “Haggo”.

Jimin interviewed in a Japanese magazine, JK is a pet puppy.
In one Army Kit, Jin wrote JK as their 반려견(companion dog).
*Korean granmas call grandchildren ‘my puppies’.
No matter how tall, how strong he gets, he is still 6 hyungs little baby brother.
