Jin's Busy Life As An Assistant Drill Instructor Was Shared On Korea TV

Last December, Jin officially enlisted as a rookie of Yeoncheon Training Center. Until now, 3 months have pa̾s̾sed and there is very little news about Jin these days as he is now an a̾s̾sistant instructor of the corps.

Certainly among ARMYs, there are many people who are curious about what Jin is up to these days and what life is like as a teacher for the rookies Jin. A recent кσяєαn TV show detailed the m̴i̴l̴i̴t̴a̴r̴y̴ life of a̾s̾sistant instructors through the narration of an instructor who joined the same unit as Jin.

Thereby we understand more what Jin is doing:

About a month ago, Jin completed a 5-week training course at the frontline infantry division's training camp in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi Province. Jin successfully completed his duties during the training period and he was honored to become the conductor at the graduation ceremony.

At that time, Jin's parents and his family were also present to witness this important moment. After the graduation ceremony, Jin was a̾s̾signed as an a̾s̾sistant instructor for his permanent m̴i̴l̴i̴t̴a̴r̴y̴ position.

The a̾s̾sistant instructor's primary responsibility is to discipline recruits and demonstrate training exercises. Only a few are selected at each department and the position requires rigorous qualifications. To be selected as a̾s̾sistant trainers, solďïệrs need to apply for the position during training and pa̾s̾s a physical exam and interview. As is customary, this position is usually awarded to solďïệrs who have excelled in training.

Before Jin, there were a number of other celebrities who also held this position in different corps. Examples include Hyun Bin, Chun Jung-myung, Yoo Seung-ho, Go Kyung-pyo, Ok Taec-yeon and Im Si-wan, etc.

However, his life as a teaching a̾s̾sistant has never been revealed in detail before, so fans don't know if Jin is leading a good life. Fortunately, recently, a кσяєαn TV show, an a̾s̾sistant drill instructor from the 10th company of the new recruits training camp in the 5th division, the same division with Jin, came on and explained the daily routines of the a̾s̾sistant drill instructors.

He revealed that: "The trainees need to get up at 6:30am, so the instructors have to get up earlier at 6am, get dressed into combat uniforms, then wake up the trainees for morning roll calls. After leading them for morning roll calls, we take the trainees to breakfast.

We accompany them to all 3 meals and all the trainings. Also there are weekly education session for the trainees, and we have to prepare those educations. We act as principals or trainers of those educations sessions. So basically it’s really busy for us. We hardly get any breaks, or personal maintenance time."

This is why the a̾s̾sistant drill instructors get a little more time off in between each training sessions because they don’t get any breaks daily and weekends during a training period.

It doesn't seem to be an easy job and it's not simpler than solďïệrs in other units. So even if Jin is kept at the Yeoncheon training center, he still has to work hard and give his best in his work. Not only that, as a celebrity and representative of BTS, Jin has to work even harder.

Perhaps due to the nature of the job as well as other m̴i̴l̴i̴t̴a̴r̴y̴ security issues, Jin's life since the end of the training course has been much more private. The last time Jin was allowed to post photos was after completing basic training along with a comforting message to ARMYs.

So far, fans still expect soмєтнing from his army. While BTS members always tell ARMYs that Jin texted them and said that he is still doing great to rea̾s̾sure ARMYs.

It's still a long time before we can see Jin again, but ARMYs will definitely be waiting for his return!
