Jin Introduces His Non-Celebrity Friends To ARMYs For The First Time

“There’s a lot of pressure to meet up with people. I haven’t changed, but my friends find it difficult to be around me”, Jin once confessed about the downside of being a top Kpop superstar in the world. Sometimes, he also admits that he doesn't have many friends but contrary to what many people think, that doesn't mean he doesn't have close friends who are not famous people.

In the latest episode of the Disney+ documentary BTS Monuments: Beyond The Star, Jin made fans feel excited when sharing about a camping trip with his friends - friends outside the entertainment industry. This was the first time Jin shared this precious moment and fans were delighted by their cute conversation.

If you missed it, watch it again below and check out other fans' reactions to the moment:

Historically, Jin is one of the most private members of BTS as he rarely reveals his personal life and close friendships. That's why many people think that BTS are Jin's only friends, but in reality, he is truly a social butterfly among celebrities.

Not only does Jin have friends who are successful in the entertainment industry, but Jin also has non-celebrity friends. In the latest episode of Disney+ BTS Monuments: Beyond The Star, a short segment focuses on personal time of Jin with his close friends was shared. Fans were first introduced by Jin to the group of non-celebrity friends he has had since before his debut.

They went camping and talked together, making fans consider their true friendship even more. Specifically, Jin revealed he had burned himself, and it hurt, so they advised him to ice it. When he admitted he was “too lazy,” one friend teased him to just “endure it.” He responded, “I tried to endure it when I tore a ligament,” and the friend retorted, “I don’t think that’s how that works.”

Following that funny situation, Jin talked about the time when he tore a ligament, he would not have known and got the proper treatment if it was not for his friends. They took him to the doctor, and now his finger has recovered, thanks to them.

Meanwhile, one of his friends was worried that Jin's parents would blame him for the Kpop superstar's injury. But on the contrary, Jin pointed out that his mother really liked his friend named Gun Han because she thought that thanks to hanging out with Gun Han, Jin was recruited by Big Hit and debuted as a member of BTS. This moment really made fans laugh out loud.

Then, Jin shared more about his friendship in a one-on-one interview. He explained that he and his friends make time for each other, even when they’re busy. He trusts them enough that they sometimes hang out at his home when he’s out working, so when he returns, he’s met by them.

He said in the interview: "We meet up about six times a week when we can. About once or twice a week when we’re too busy. When I’m out working, they’ll hang out at my house playing video games and greet me when I get home. When I leave the house, they hang out among themselves and leave. I know a few celebrities, and they all say friends like that are rare. I’m glad and relieved."

After Jin's sharing, ARMYs were surprised to see how close they were. ARMYs are happy to know Jin is surrounded by such great friends:

- Jin is so private so him sharing this with us feels special. I am happy he has this  group of friends, it feels like a family too!

- Yes it's like we come so far along with BTS like a family they're sharing things. And maintaining the idol and fan limits both things BTS is doing great i love how much BTS trust and want to share new things with us. We have special bond with BTS i hope it's never fade away. Amen

- I felt the same way he has a core group outside of the members it’s so important he talk with them about non-work stuff so lovely

- As Jin tends to sleep and play games for hours I'm really grateful towards this friends for hanging out with Jin

- I like this version of Jin. On screen, we mostly see him with people younger or older and he’s mostly in a pro mode. Seeing his relaxed self with his same age friends who grew up together is refreshing. It’s probably the closest to offcam jin we get to see.

- I love that Jin has decided to show us this side of him after 10 years

- oh Seokjin. His friend said Seokjin had a cast on but he still held his friend cat to take a photo with that cat. and that he always comes on time, others will be late but Seokjin will always be on time. Despite being a world star celebrity

- Old army knows that Jin and hobi are the most private members in the group. They don't always show their private self to us . That's why I was surprised but glad that he showed his real friends to us .

- I'm just so happy that he has these wonderful friends. A part of me felt worried that he showed this (even though I am so thankful). I want his sacred friends and precious friendship to be protected forever.
