The way of the world is that boy bands don’t stick for long. Like all good books, team-ups end too. As the world witnesses a possible straying of all the BTS members, the world asks why is Jungkook in Qatar. Has the South Korean K-Pop Idol Jungkook’s performance in FIFA World Cup 2022 Qatar this Sunday been confirmed?
This is obviously accentuated further by the topic of the responsibility of Qatar to host the FIFA world cup opening preciously. With impending controversies in the country because of its laws for homosexuality, there is a mixed response globally.
FIFA World Cup 2022 Qatar and its controversies
The match fixture for the opening is such that Ecuador faces Qatar. The match is scheduled at Al-Bayt stadium. The fixture is part of Group A Fixture and is scheduled for 4 PM UK time on November 20, Sunday.
The World Cup is all ready to start on Sunday. For the same, the opening ceremony will host an ensemble of known personalities. However, as things stand there are multiple controversies circulating Qatar’s stance on the LGBTQ community.
- So much so that Dua Lipa explicitly mentioned she will be cheering from afar but does not commemorate Qatar’s human rights laws. Qatar will however have a good platform to put its culture out for the globe to see.
The lineup for the World Cup opening ceremony
- The line-up of artists who are going to blaze through the opening ceremony includes Robbie Williams. Joining the football legacy in performance might be Shakira reinstating her popular ‘Waka Waka’ from the 2010 World Cup.
- Williams had previously joined the Russian World Cup ceremony in 2018. This time, however, confirmed for his performance and inclusion in the World Cup 2022 soundtrack is Jungkook. It is notable that many of Williams’ fans are disapproving of his decision to join the opening ceremony in Qatar.
- Craig David and Tinie Tempah will also reportedly be part of the Fifa World Cup Qatar opening ceremony.
Is BTS’ Jungook in Qatar confirmed for Fifa World Cup Opening Ceremony?
Yes, the official Twitter account of BTS confirmed last week of Jungkook performance in Qatar. He will join the artist lineup for the opening ceremony of the World Cup in Qatar.
“Proud to announce that Jung Kook is part of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Soundtrack & will perform at the World Cup opening ceremony. Stay tuned!”
The tweet reads.

- The internet currently witnesses a video of BTS’ Jungkook that is circulating. The video sees the Korean singer, dancer, and BTS member kicking an imaginary ball and celebrating a win. Another band member V was also spotted at the airport. Despite speculations, V will not be joining Jungkook on his flight to Qatar.
- In a new video that’s doing the rounds on the internet, the vocalist pretends to kick an imaginary ball and celebrates his win. On the other hand, his close friend and band member V was spotted at the airport, cheerfully smiling at the paps from behind the mask. He also did the ‘V’ sign and revealed he was supported to depart with Jungkook.
Concluding
As things are all the members of BTS have their own thing going on. V is speculated to join Park Seo-joon and Choi Woo-shik for a variety show in Youn’s Kitchen. Meanwhile, BTS leader Rap Monster whose real name is Kim Nam-Joon is all set to release his solo album Indigo. Another member Jin is also preparing to leave for military service.
Qatar has banned homosexuality in its country. The FIFA official’s response to the same has been a little off-put. The emphasis has been constantly given to the nations focusing on ‘football’ specifically. The questions of human rights are the domain of another discussion altogether, although the reactions to Jungkook joining Qatar amidst the controversy will be an event to witness.
