Wig still not snatched? Well, Jungkook also dropped a cover of Justin Bieber and David Guetta‘s “2U” today, and it’s so magical that you might actually weep. Yes, it’s JK’s birthday, but it is the fans who are truly gifted. (We are still waiting for that selfie, though.)

As an aside, BTS’ next album Love Yourself: Her will drop Sept. 18, making it a pretty good month for JK overall. In the meantime, check out the best Jungkook Day tweets:
