Since the tattoo first was spotted during the first episode of his new variety show with Jimin Are You Sure?!, some fans have claimed Jungkook appeared to be intentionally concealing the tattoo in later episodes.

Netizens pointed out that one arm — believed to feature the couple tattoo — was covered, while the opposite arm was left fully exposed.

• “Uh… I honestly can’t tell how this is any different from gangster tattoos…”
