Today is definitely a great day for BTS and their fans as the "first veteran" has returned. After meeting the BTS members, Jin quickly held a Weverse Live broadcast to meet his fans after nearly 2 years.
In addition to Jin's happy feelings and brief sharing after returning from the military, he also had messages for his fans. In particular, Jin emphasized that he hopes fans will not impose this thought on the members who are discharged later:
Well, on this day, ARMYs must be the ones who feel the most excited and happy when Jin returns 1 day before the group's debut anniversary. Traditionally, 'FESTA' is a festival that BTS and their fans enjoy every year to celebrate their debut anniversary (June 13). This year, this anniversary is even more special because it coincides with the time when the group's eldest member is discharged from the military.
Not only that, according to Big Hit Music's announcement, Jin will hold a separate event tomorrow to hug 1,000 fans at the Jamsil Sports Complex in Seoul. This event has made fans unable to contain their excitement since the beginning of this month and it is clearly a "midsummer rain" after nearly 2 years of Jin and fans not meeting in person.
Jin himself also wanted to hug his fans when revealing the reason for holding this kind of event: "Since you've waited for a year and a half, I wanted to hug as many fans as possible...I wanted to hug those who have waited for me". However, he also emphasized that he did not want to put pressure on the members: "This is soмєтнing I personally wanted to do, so I'm not sure if the other members will do it. I don't really want this to be pushed to the other members as well. This is purely my interest although I was proposed other events such as fan signs. But I really wanted to do hugs. Please don't ask them why don't you do hug".
With Jin being discharged from the army today and the event he prepared for fans, the expectations for the other members' return are understandable. But Jin showed that he understands the psychology of fans as well as how much he cares for his younger brothers when expressing his hope that fans will reduce the pressure on the members who will be discharged later.
Meanwhile, about the fan meeting event, Jin also honestly said, "I really didn't have time to prepare, I didn't compose well, and I didn't have time to practice. I haven't sung for 1 year and 6 months, so I feel like I forgot how to sing, so my performance can be poor." He also asked fans to understand for his condition: "I'm trying really hard, so even if I don't sing well, please understand".
Obviously, even without a special event or broadcast right away, BTS's comeback is still a precious gift to fans. Just seeing them healthy and happy after their discharge is enough for ARMYs. Please cherish and continue to support the group members in the future!
