Most notable among those contents was when MC Jonathan took Jin back in time, reminding the singer about the time when BTS did a project of handing out flyers on the street to promote their performance. Jin remembered that it was about two years after BTS debuted and suddenly shared that he was "scammed" at that time.
The eldest member of BTS said: "Two years? I was scammed", Jin's statement ѕнσ¢кed the MC of the show. The male singer called Mnet "scammers" and revealed that he and the BTS members were only informed that they would be going to the United States to work on music, not to film the reality TV show "αмєяι¢αn Hustle Life".
"I was told that we would be working on music in αмєяι¢α. Then all of a sudden, Mnet... That's right. It was this place.The scammer. I went there with Mnet. Okay. All of a sudden, they said it was the beginning of αмєяι¢αn Hustle Life", Jin said.
Although the MC initially mentioned this story to show BTS's efforts and success, υиєχρє¢тє∂ly, thanks to this story, Jin had the opportunity to open up about the "scam". Fans couldn't help but laugh and remember the group's famous reality show that year. BTS αмєяι¢αn Hustle Life (방탄소년단의 아메리칸 허슬 라이프) is a reality show by BTS that aired on Mnet, premiering on July 24, 2014. The show featured BTS members, who thought they were going to αмєяι¢α to travel and promote their new album, but they found out that they were training with new hip-hop instructors Coolio, Tony Jones, and Warren G.
Not only that, in the show, BTS also had to go through many challenges such as learning to dance, sing, being exposed to street music, or even working as kitchen αѕѕistants and cleaning engines. Indeed, looking at the expressions of the BTS members at that time, it was not too surprising that Jin called the show a "scam" but it was definitely a great experience for them.
After 10 years of continuous activity and dedication, BTS has not only become the top кσяєαn music group but the influence and popularity of BigHit's music group has also spread strongly. In particular, they have become very famous in the US market - where they witnessed the first days of their career.
