Sarah Geronimo wants to collaborate with BTS' Jungkook

MANILA, Philippines — One artist that Filipino pop singer Sarah Geronimo hopes to have a chance working with is Jungkook from the Korean boy band BTS.

Sarah is currently in Los Angeles, United States to receive the Global Force award from Billboard's Women In Music, a first for a Filipino artist.

Italian artist Annalisa and Brazilian singer-songwriter Luísa Sonza are also set to receive the said award. 

Other award recipients include Karol G (Woman of the Year), NewJeans (Group of the Year), Charli XCX (Powerhouse), Ice Spice (Hitmaker), Tems (Breakthrough) and Victoria Monét (Rising Star).

The Filipino singer-actress conducted a question-and-answer segment on her X, formerly Twitter, account where she responded to queries, such as her trip to Los Angeles and the feeling of being recognized by Billboard.

I love JUNGKOOK. I think he is an amazing artist. Ang galing niya sobra :) https://t.co/VFXfKNhxmn

The last question Sarah answered was if there was any K-pop group she wished to meet and maybe want to collaborate with.

"I love JUNGKOOK. I think he is an amazing artist. Ang galing niya sobra," Sarah responded.

Theater legend Lea Salonga, herself a BTS fan, replied to Sarah's answer with similar sentiments, "Grabe siyaaaaaaa! Strong agree!!!"

Such a collaboration would have to wait though as Jungkook and the rest of BTS are currently serving in the military as required for all able-bodied men in South Korea.
