Kim Sung Joo recalls he was hosting the 2016 DMC Festival and was unaware that the lifts had been lowered, creating holes in the stage. He fell right into Jungkook’s pit, who caught him in time and saved his life. Jungkook ended up injuring his left hand due to the accident but still put up a performance to the group's hit song 'Fire.'
The emcee opened up about the incident in 2018 and fans were left awestruck by Jungkook’s presence of mind.
