On March 1, the graduation ceremony was held online at Ilji Art Hall in Seoul, and broadcast live on YouTube in accordance with the government’s quarantine guidelines. Jungkook received the President’s Award, the highest honour given by the university. 

The maknae of the group said, “They say graduation is a full-stop of sorts while also being a beginning, so it feels touching, but is giving an exciting feeling at the same time. Thank you for giving me this precious award, I think learning something is always fun, cool, and exciting. We must all not miss this moment, and go forth towards our goals, just as we are doing now.”

Last year, group members V and Jimin had also graduated from Global Cyber University and received the President’s Award.
