Most Kpop groups are dominated by their management companies in their musical activities. It means that from the idea, song to production or release, the management companies will 'bind' their artists to a certain plan.

But BTS in general or Jin is different, they have almost never depended on HYBE from the early days of their career. Especially, up to now when HYBE has developed into a powerful Kpop empire, the label cannot control or restrain Jin and the members of BTS.

Jin revealed this in an interview and fans were overwhelmed by his power:

At present, no one can deny that BTS is a global Kpop phenomenon. Since their debut in 2013, the seven-member group has achieved remarkable milestones and gathered one of the most devoted fandoms in the world, ARMY.

During the first 10 years of their career, the group operated as a cohesive entity. However, impressive achievements, The record set by BTS would not have been possible if the seven people behind it were not as interesting as the whole. From the beginning, BTS has always encouraged the members to develop their own music taste, and in recent years, the group's solo careers have been opened up.

But of course, there are concerns about working independently after a long time when BTS was used to working together. In the latest episode of Salon Drip, Jin honestly shared his feelings about performing alone on stage. He said: "I performed the day after I was discharged in June 13th and not being with my members made it more scary and nervous... I had a hard time because I didn't know how to fill in the gap. I was so worried about what I should do, but once I got used to it, I loved it!"

In particular, one detail that excited fans was when he directly mentioned that HYBE had almost no influence on his solo album. He said naturally: "When performing with my members we have a lot of various options, the music and choreography should be like this. But since I'm doing it by myself, I was like 'choreography?' 'Nope!!' , 'These schedules?' 'delete it!', 'But the fans want it', 'oh really? The include them'. I can decide on everything myself."

Wow, Jin is really savage! It's rare for an artist to have real freedom when working under a management company, but Jin didn't even hesitate to openly admit this.

Fans can't help but admire Jin's "power" and his willingness to listen to fans' wishes:
