During the interview, the host of the show asked BTS to speak about something that they’re currently interested in, apart from music.

To this, Suga replied that he recently began playing the guitar and also expressed his interest in world peace. Jin, on the other hand, mentioned that he has managed to understand more about the difficulties people have been facing due to the coronavirus pandemic. He expressed that he’s been doing his best to help his brother with his food business.

RM revealed that he’s been exercising more often and has taken an interest in paintings and art. Jimin said that he hasn’t taken an interest in anything beyond their concert and album due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

"Outside of practice time, my brain stops. I don’t do anything at home. I hope that the situation improves soon," he added.

Meanwhile, Jungkook, the golden maknae of BTS, answered the question by stating that he’s been trying out a lot of different things during his free time.

"I can’t focus on just one thing, so I try a lot of different things. Working on songs is the base thing. I was boxing, then playing guitar, then painting, then reading books, then I tried cooking and working out. I edit videos too and I’m doing a lot of different things." said Jungkook while adding that he’s also taken a keen interest in making pizza.

The 23-year-old revealed that making pizza was easier than he had expected. Meanwhile, Jin mentioned that Jungkook was so hooked to making pizza to a point where the maknae ended up eating pizza for an entire month.

Fans took to social media to express their views on Jungkook's latest obsession.

"lol I still can't make a cake with burning it from one side," said one user on Twitter.

"Now of he doesn't share the recipe with us that won't be fair. Coz I don't know any easy recipes for a pizza except the one where I get a readymade base," said another user.

"Jungkook is good at everything. Just admit to it," added another fan.
