The next morning in Sapporo brings more than just snowfall; it brings moments of reflection and hilarity. Watching the snowfall, Jungkook muses about recalling this view during their future military service, only for Jimin to tease about sweeping snow in uniform. The two brush their teeth side-by-side, sharing a tender moment that feels like a cozy slice of life; a reminder of their deep bond formed over a decade together in BTS.

Breakfast is an adventure in itself as they savor Japanese ramen, sipping hot americanos as they walk through the chilly streets. Jimin's playful reenactment of an anime scene on a scenic train ride has Jungkook in stitches. At a picturesque village resembling a Christmas postcard, they indulge in whisky before engaging in a playful snow fight. The laughter is infectious; you can almost feel the cold nip at your cheeks as they tumble through the snow.

Amidst the fun, there are moments of introspection when the boys wonder what kind of trouble they would have caused had they been the same age, and they fondly anticipate the group's reunion after military service.

As the episode teases a thrilling snowboarding adventure in the next, final installment, fans are left feeling warm and fuzzy. Episode 6 is a delightful mix of humor, heart, and brotherhood, capturing Jikook at their best; just two friends enjoying life, snow, and the beautiful city of Sapporo.
