American pop duo Dan + Shay and South Korean BTS member Jeon Jungkook
The Grammy-winning American pop duo Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney, also known as Dan + Shay (pronounced as “Dan and Shay”), was recently wowed by popular BTS member Jungkook’s captivating cover of their hit song collaboration with Canadian pop superstar Justin Bieber.
The South Korean star impressively crooned the song “10,000 Hours” as if he owned it, and shared his short cover with fans on BTS’ official Twitter account on Tuesday, July 28, which he deleted minutes after posting for unknown reasons.
However, before the tweet got deleted, the American singers-songwriters got to read it as they expressed their appreciation for the K-pop idol’s euphonious version of their song. They replied to his tweet: “this sounds amazing (two yellow hearts emoji) thank you so much for singing it!”
this sounds amazing 💛💛
thank you so much for singing it!

Even if the recording was suddenly deleted, the 22-year-old “Euphoria” singer later on tweeted a link to his cover that was already uploaded to Soundcloud, whose caption reads, “10000 Hours Repeat,” plus a purple heart emoji.

Shortly after BTS’s Army fans made Jungkook’s cover dominate trends on social media, pop duo Dan + Shay noticed the cover again and left a comment on BTS’ tweet: “love this so much.”

Thrilled by the duo’s comment, one BTS fan suggested a collaboration with the Korean star, to which the duo replied, “we would love to.”

Meanwhile, it is no secret that BTS’ Jungkook is a “Belieber” or a huge fan of Justin Bieber, as he has already done some covers of Bieber’s songs in the past, such as “2U,” “Nothing Like Us” and “Purpose,” and even danced to the iconic song “Sorry.”
More so, the Canadian singer surely is aware of it as he once greeted Jungkook on his birthday on Twitter last year on Sept. 1.
Happy bday #JUNGKOOK . They ain’t ready :) now watch this tweet go crazy

Bieber has not reacted yet to Jungkook’s cover as of this writing, but fans are still hoping for the two superstars to make a song collaboration in the future. /ra
