All ARMYs can't forget that Jin officially enlisted for his mandatory military service on December 13, 2022. It's been more than 2 months since Jin joined the 5th Infantry Division in Yeoncheon district for training.
In the past, during the months when Jin was a trainee in this unit, The Camp of the unit always updated his pictures daily and ARMYs were grateful to see Jin in the army. But now, Jin has officially started serving the country and it also means that without the permission of the military, Jin's image will not be spread out.
But in an old video of him, recently posted by STARNEWS KOREA on Tiktok, it caught the attention of ARMYs on Jin's shoulders. He seems to be suffering from shoulder pain and ARMYs suspect that it happened during training:
Previously, as usual, the ROK Army shared a few official updates on Jin and training photos along with photos of Jin wearing his uniform during his first months of training. But since Jin finished his training and was αѕѕigned to the official unit, this is no longer done.
Reportedly, Jin was αѕѕigned as an αѕѕistant instructor at the 5th Division's rookie training center. He was also recently rewarded with a vacation after winning first place in a military talent contest. So it looks like he's still adjusting well to military life.
However, an update since Jin's appearance at his graduation has brought ARMYs attention to Jin's condition. STARNEWS KOREA recently shared a video of Jin during ceremony, and you can even hear his voice. Naturally, the video went viral with 1.5M views and 531.8K likes at the time of writing.
The comment section is filled with ARMYs míssíng Jin. While some are admiring how handsome he looks in uniform or straight-up míssíng him, others are expressing concern for his shoulders.
In a brief moment during the video shared, Jin’s shoulder rises as if he was shrugging or readjusting himself. This isn’t the only time ARMYs have noticed som̾e̾t̾h ̾ing peculiar regarding his shoulders since his enlistment.
In another video, Jin is not simply adjusting his posture or shrugging. He appears to be holding that same shoulder as though he is in pain.
All of these actions of Jin have caught the eyes of ARMYs with worry that he is suffering a shoulder injury and maybe he is suffering from it:
- I’m so proud of him!
- I miss you so much Jin
- I think som̾e̾t̾h ̾ing is uncomfortable in his shoulder
- Is his shoulder okay?
- He is so handsome in his military uniform but there is som̾e̾t̾h ̾ing not right on his shoulder
- His shoulder...seems to be uncomfortable, maybe is it нυят?
- Whether his shoulder is injuring, his action repeats again
- I worry for his shoulder condition, it looks нυят
- he looks like suffering shoulder pain
Jin has promised to update ARMYs monthly. Except for a couple of selfies that the army permitted him to post, his updates thus far have been in the form of pre-recorded materials. So, we can’t actually know how Jin is really doing unless he or another member updates. Hopefully, it’s nothing serious, though.
