Jin started his career as a celebrity from acting rather than singing. He had the chance to become an idol after he became a student at Konkuk University and was selected by вιg нιт Music.
So, it can be said that acting was his first dream and surely Jin still loves it because he also stud̾i̾e ̾d for a master's degree in acting. Currently, Jin is performing his m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷ service while the other members carry out many solo activities and experience various fields.
Therefore, many people wonder if when Jin comes back from the army, will he develop a solo career as an actor? And here is his answer before:
As many ARMYs know, Jin initially majored in Film and Visual Arts at one of the most prestigious universities in ḳöŕệä, Konkuk University. He stud̾i̾e ̾d very hard both before and after debuting with BTS and received his bachelor's degree.
He then went on to study at Hanyang Cyber University, where he majored in Film for a master's degree. Jin seems to have devoted his academic career to acting. It also complements him well in his work as an idol but it was also an early dream of Jin.
Jin is not only known as a talented idol, but over the years, his acting talent is soon revealed. Many famous directors have praised his acting ability through MVs, short films, commercials...
Although Jin was able to showcase his acting talent and knowledge in the field in the MV and other short content, it still makes many ARMYs hope that Jin can start his acting career. him with a role in the movie. Jin is believed to be fully qualified and also expected by many directors.
Even the BTS members support the idea of "Actor Jin," alluding to his potential future path. However, chapter 1 with BTS is a journey where they have devoted so much that there is not enough time to work on individual projects and so is Jin.
Meanwhile, fans expect that after Jin is discharged from the army and BTS is entering chapter 2 with a series of solo projects of the members, maybe Jin will have time to film. But before enlisting, Jin also revealed his true thoughts on acting on Weverse.
When an ARMY asked him when he would start his acting career, Jin shared that he's really not sure if he wants to pursue acting anymore. He replied, "I’m not sure...Recently there were rumors going around that I’m going to act..I absolutely have no plans for itㅠㅠI still don’t even feel like doing it"
Not long ago while sitting with BTS, Jin mentioned that his first dream was to become an actor. But feeling like he already had the experiences he was looking for as an idol, he wasn't sure if being an actor was still what he wanted to do.
However, he also shared that life is long and he still has a lot of time to decide if he wants to pursue a career on screen. Specifically, Jin said, "I became an idol and experienced and learned even more than I could ever imagined. But life is long so i might or might not...I don't feel like I would right now!"
But not long after, Jin also shared that he also wants to experience new foods if given the opportunity before it's too late. And of course, acting as an actor is also among them. Perhaps chapter 2 will also open up more opportunities for him to do this.
It seems that at the moment, acting is still not a priority for him. But whether he wants to pursue it or not, ARMY will always support his choice!
