jvm just do execution no compiling or transpiling. It can run products of compilers of java, kotlin, scala, some version of python and ruby, ... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_JVM_languages

Since Kotlin code is converted into bytecode they require jvm to run

The key is the native language of the JVM: the Java bytecode. Any language can be compiled into bytecode which the JVM understands - all you need for this is a compiler emitting bytecode. From then on, there is no difference from the JVM's point of view. So much so that you can take a compiled Scala, Clojure, Jython etc. class file and decompile it (using e.g. JAD) into normal looking Java source code.
