There are pop-up exhibitions, and then there are moments that quietly sit with you. BTS' Jeon Jungkook’s Golden  exhibition at Mahboob Studios in Mumbai belongs to the latter. We tour this exclusive moment and provide some stunning photos! Jungkook GOLDEN Exhibition (Credits: Dojeon Media) Set against the legacy walls of one of India’s most iconic film studios, the exhibition does not shout its importance. It whispers it. From the moment visitors step inside, it becomes clear that this is not merely a celebration of an album. It is an attempt to translate emotion into space. For Indian BTS ARMY, many of whom have followed Jungkook, aka Maknae’s journey from afar, Golden's arrival in Mumbai feels personal. Almost overdue. Why Mumbai, Why Mahboob Studios? Mahboob Studios is synonymous with storytelling. Decades of Indian cinema have passed through its corridors, carrying ambition, heartbreak, and reinvention. Placing Golden  here feels intentional. The industrial textures of the venue soften under warm lighting and gold accents, creating a striking contrast. The result is a space that feels both grounded and aspirational. Message wall at Jungkook's GOLDEN Exhibition (Credits: Dojeon Media) As a visitor, the shift is immediate. Mumbai’s noise fades away. What replaces it is stillness, punctuated by music and memory. Walking Through Golden : What the Exhibition Holds The exhibition unfolds gradually, much like the album itself. Large-format visuals from the Golden  era line the walls. They chart Jungkook’s evolution into a K-pop solo artist without spelling it out. The images are confident but restrained. There is vulnerability beneath the polish. Concept displays reveal fragments of the creative process. Styling references, visual notes, and behind-the-scenes elements offer context. They remind visitors that Golden  was not just performed, but carefully built. Listening zones allow fans to experience the album in a quieter, more intentional way. Hearing the tracks here feels different. The songs breathe. ARMY linger. The Emotional Undercurrent What makes the exhibition resonate is its refusal to overindulge in spectacle. No dramatic installations are screaming for attention. Instead, the emotion arrives slowly. For many visitors, this is their first time sharing physical space with something tied to Jungkook’s solo journey. Online streams and screens suddenly feel distant. Here, the connection feels human. Collective. Almost tender. From a reporting standpoint, the silence is telling. Fans are not rushing to document every moment. They are present. Merchandise That Feels Thoughtful, Not Excessive The merchandise section is busy but curated with care. Rather than overwhelming fans, it offers restrained, wearable pieces aligned with Golden ’s aesthetic. Items available include: Golden  logo T-shirts Caps and tote bags Jewelry boxes and chain accessories Photo prints and image sets The designs are minimal. They feel less like fandom memorabilia and more like keepsakes. Prices vary by item, with most merchandise positioned in an accessible mid-range. Ticket Prices and Exhibition Timeline Tickets for the Golden  exhibition in Mumbai are priced starting at approximately ₹1,499 (USD 17.00), with premium slots offering priority entry. The exhibition opened in December and is scheduled to run until early January, making it a limited-time experience. The short window has only heightened demand. For many ARMY , missing it does not feel like missing an event. It feels like missing a moment. From a News Writer’s Lens Culturally, the exhibition signals something larger. It reflects the growing recognition of India as a meaningful stop in global pop culture narratives. Jungkook’s Golden  exhibition does not try to explain his success. It assumes you already know. Jungkook's Golden Exhibition display (Credits: Dojeon Media) Instead, it invites you to feel it. In a city that thrives on cinema and storytelling, Golden  finds its place quietly. It leaves behind something intangible. A sense of closeness. And when visitors step back into Mumbai’s bustle, they carry that feeling with them. Soft. Lingering. Golden. #Golden #Jungkook #Mumbai

We analyze the biggest hits of the year, including Rosé 's Grammy-nominated "APT.", HUNTR/X 's "Golden", and IVE's Grand Song  winner, "XOXZ"! Image: BLACKPINK'S Rose and BTS' Jimin - Photo: https://kpopnewswire.com K-pop has literally dominated global charts even more than it did last year throughout 2025! This article will focus on our picks for the 2025 chart-toppers, which have trended on the charts and online. So let's check them out! Rosé ft. Bruno Mars – "APT." This collaboration made K-pop history, and at the same time, smashed global charts, thanks to its catchy melody and beat, and this is exactly why it has made number one on the Dojeon list! This hit single won multiple Grammy nominations in major "General Field" categories, including Record of the Year and Song of the Year. It previously won the prestigious Song of the Year award at the 2025 MTV VMAs . The massive global success of the track contributed to Rosé's critically acclaimed first full-length album, rosie . HUNTR/X – "Golden" If you are not yet fed up with this tune, then it is a good thing, since this hit has trended literally everywhere since its release! For this reason, this is why it has made number two on the Dojeon list. "Golden" is a globally charting hit from the soundtrack of the popular Netflix film, KPop Demon Hunters . It also received multiple 68th Grammy Award nominations, notably competing for Song of the Year against "APT. " , which meant two major K-pop hits were up against each other this year in a US-based music award show, and this was very unheard of. The track impressively topped both the Billboard Hot 100 and the Official Singles Chart, a significant achievement for a song originating from an animated project. IVE – "XOXZ" Next on the Dojeon list is a song that served as the title track for IVE's fourth mini-album, as well as securing the major 2025 Grand Song ( Daesang ) prize at the Korea Grand Music Awards (KGMA). "XOXZ" itself earned five music show wins, cementing the group's reputation for dominating domestic charts. Not only this, but the song's success highlights IVE's powerful "IVE Syndrome", backed by their remarkable streak of seven consecutive million-seller albums, and as a result, it made K-pop history during the very competitive 2025 run. BLACKPINK – "JUMP" Talk about a catchy dance routine and melody! Fourth on our list is BLACKPINK's highly anticipated comeback single, "JUMP", which quickly became a massive global streaming success upon its release. The song's high placement on various year-end charts and view-count lists demonstrates the group's continued, unrivalled worldwide influence, which we believe is partly thanks to the diverse group. It is a key track from their latest album and solidified their status as a dominant force in the international music scene, and a tune which continues to trend on music shows and social media channels! Stray Kids – "Do It" Stray Kids closed out a historic year, which included their first domestic stadium concert, with the double title track "Do It" from their SKZ IT TAPE  mixtape. A newer song on our list, but nonetheless, a tune to celebrate a historic year when it comes to K-pop! This reggaetón-based track became an immediate million-seller and achieved the group's highest-ever peak on Spotify's Daily Top Songs Global chart. "Do It" reinforces Stray Kids' dominant position as global leaders, showcasing their powerful, self-produced music, which is the way forward for a lot of K-pop acts these days, due to having more creative control. Which K-pop song is your 2025 favorite and why? Comment below and let the Dojeon team know! #BestKPop2025 #KPopMusic #GrammyNods #IVE #StrayKids #KPopCharts
