Celebrity lookalike contest fever is sweeping the United States, with more and more fans joining in to revive their iconic styles. Most recently, a Jungkook lookalike contest held in Chicago has finally found its winner.
Of the many people who participated, there were three top ones chosen by the committee. Andrew Alexander, a third-year college student living in California, became the winner of the BTS look-alike contest . He came with his two sisters, and immortalized the moment through content on the YouTube channel uploaded on Monday November 25, 2024.
In the video, Andrew is seen dressing casually imitating Jungkook's style. He combines an oversized T-shirt with a black puffer jacket, and acid-wash gray jeans. What is interesting here is that Andrew also shows off tattoos and piercings on his eyebrows and lips which are Jungkook's trademarks.
When his name was announced as the winner, Andrew could not hide his joy. He received a prize of a bottle of soju and $20 in cash. Andrew himself is also a YouTuber with around 260,000 subscribers.
