After JK’s GMA performance, Jimin and JK drove to Connecticut from New York City. Upon realising they were both hungry, they made their first stop at Brennan’s by the Beach. Located in Stamford, the restaurant offers a wide range of soups, salads, and seafood as well as burgers and sandwiches. They also serve a variety of cocktails to pair with their food.

At the eatery, Jimin and ordered a Black Blue Burger, a California Burger, and a steak sandwich. And from the footage, it’s safe to say Jimin didn’t enjoy the taste of blue cheese.

The next filming location for BTS Jimin and Jungkook’s Are You Sure?! was High Nine Brewing in Deep River, Connecticut, which boasts a relaxed ambience and vibe. The boys tasted the samples of plisner, craft hard seltzer, and mango haze. Jimin settled for a tall glass of light beer, while JK chose a fruity one.

While sipping and enjoying his cocktails, JK began talking about how he wanted to make his own whiskey at home. He then shared that Jin has also acquired a permit to produce makgeolli.

Remember when JM and JK went kayaking and Jungkook’s boat toppled over? The incident, which left Jungkook in the river and Jimin laughing like a good best friend, has to be one of the best and most hilarious moments of the show. Adding onto the hilarity of the scene was Jungkook’s biggest concern upon exiting the river: whether his phone was okay.

To recap: after drinking at High Nine Brewing, the Busan boys went kayaking at Black Hall Outfitters in Old Lyme for some exercise, relaxation, beautiful scenery, and Jungkook‘s historic dip. They appreciated the ride and the tranquillity of nature. After the ride, they changed into Black Hall Outfitters t-shirts, which have become must-have items for ARMYs throughout the world. The company has now designed a BTS-themed t-shirt for fans and is delivering them internationally via a third-party vendor. Ten percent of the proceeds from the shirt sales will be donated to UNICEF, with whom BTS began collaborating in 2017 to raise funds to combat violence against youngsters.

Other than kayaking, the location also offers paddleboards and canoe rides. You can also go fishing and some apparel is available for sale.
