On the 19th, Jin shared a selfie on Weverse, instantly sending waves across the global fandom. кσяєαn media reacted with admiration, describing it as “BTS’s Jin leaving fans in αωє with his radiant ‘visual king’ looks,” and even declaring, “As expected of the ‘Visual King’! BTS’s Jin stuns with a full-body selfie so impressive that even AI couldn’t recreate it.”
As the global ambαѕѕador for popular αмєяι¢αn brand ALO, Jin wore ALO apparel and showcased an almost unreal visual worthy of the title “Worldwide Handsome.” Lightly leaning against a mirror, Jin captivated viewers with his fist-sized face, long and elegant neck, broad shoulders, and endlessly long legs clad only in socks—creating tall, golden body proportions that made hearts flutter.
Interestingly, several кσяєαn media outlets also pointed out a subtle detail: “Seemingly to avoid revealing any schedule-related information, Jin erased surrounding objects in the photo, causing the ‘AI-generated content’ watermark from his Samsung Galaxy phone to become visible.”
Jin didn’t just knock the door with a photo these days—he also showed up with the same outfit in a spontaneous 4 a.m. livestream alongside the two younger members, V and Jungkook. Many ARMYs around the world were practically woken up by the trio’s cheerful broadcast. Jin revealed that he was slightly tipsy, as the three had been drinking together beforehand and had spent over an hour listening to all the songs from their new album, set to be released next spring.
In particular, the relaxed and joyful atmosphere with V and Jungkook seemed to put Jin in high spirits, leading him to share— for the first time—soмєтнing he does for BTS almost every day before leaving home. This revelation deeply moved not only the maknae line but also fans, who were both surprised and touched. Just before ending the livestream, Jin suddenly said, “Before turning it off, I need to say this. Jungkook-ssi, you’ve been to my home, right? I created a zone in my house to thank the members.” V and Jungkook appeared to recall what he was referring to and encouraged him to continue.
“Because I live with gratitude toward the members, before heading out for schedules, there’s a zone with family photos of the members taken over the past 10 years. Before leaving for work in the morning, I bow and head out. Thank you for letting me wake up here today. My love for the members is this big,” he explained, as the two younger members listened attentively, their eyes shining.
Jungkook further supported Jin’s words by giving a thumbs-up and adding, “They’re photos taken at FESTA. Seven of them?” Jin corrected him, pointing out that there were more than ten. Jungkook continued, “He displayed all of them. There are trophies next to them.”
Meanwhile, Jin emphasized once again, “I didn’t put up my own photos, but I put up photos of the members. They’re divine beings to me, so as soon as I wake up I think, I should go to work… Thank you for letting me wake up in this house today, and I greet them before going to brush my teeth.”
Jin’s revelation initially left many people stunned, before gradually moving them to tears. As the eldest member of BTS, Jin stands on equal footing with the others in terms of personal success and contribution to the group. By conventional standards, he would naturally be the one held in the highest regard. Yet instead of resting in that position, he chooses to remind himself every day that who he is today is the result of “seven people together.”
What Jin shared is not merely a personal habit—it clearly reflects how he views BTS and the members in his life, always placing the group above himself. To Jin, BTS is not just a band or a career, but family, a source of motivation, and the reason he begins each day with gratitude. Through this action, fans once again recognized Jin’s sincerity and admirable character.
Jin’s remarks have since gone viral across social media, reminding fans of another equally striking statement he once made about BTS. In a conversation with famous נαραиese actor Masaki Aiba, Aiba asked Jin, “What does teammate mean to you?” Jin replied, “A team is made up of people who can make up for what I lack. That’s what I mean—people who give me strength, people who support me.” Jin also stated, “When a member says they’re sick, I really think I value my members so much that I could even give them a kidney if they needed it.”
Looking back at the deep respect and boundless love Jin has shown toward his fellow BTS members over the years, fans couldn’t help but shed tears, expressing their heartfelt emotions. One fan commented: "This is genuinely touching. Jin is so humble and so full of love and also so funny, he delights me constantly and makes me want to be like him all the time". Another added: "I honestly thought the whole ‘greeting photos before going to work’ thing was just a joke, but it turns out there really is someone who actually does that—and of course, it’s Kim Seokjin. No matter how much you think you love Bangtan, there’s still Kim Seokjin who loves them even more."
