As an american, it baffles me when Jin or any of the bts members talk about age beyond their jokes. I don't think Jin or any of the bts members are old. Or aging will have any impact on his career beyond that his fans will grow with him or he attracts newer fans who didn't know him before. The more age comes up as he promotes, the more I understand how age plays into the idol sector of the entertainment industry.
I personally think a person's 30's are even better than their 20's. You're more grounded and settled. It's simply more fun especially as the media stops using you as a statistic for everything wrong with the world.
The question about surprises though - it reminds me of when he planned his own birthday surprise party. Then he broke to the members that it wasn't a surprise for him but a surprise for them because he planned it. Hehehe Jin stay jinning.

When you hit 30, so many worries fade away lol, like you stop caring about what others think and you do you
It's like you hit enlightenment lol

I think it's another place they'll have to pave the way for. I was gonna say in kpop but honestly they're just pop now. The only part that really might ease up is the choreo, and I think they'll all be happy about that lol, maybe especially jin?

In the 11 years since you debuted, BTS has become one of the top global artists. What kind of group do you want to be for the next 5 to 10 years? And how do you want to grow as an individual?
I wish time could stand still. Even when I’m old and gray, I want to work just as hard as I do now. I want to make sure that ARMY members are getting joy from watching me. I don’t know how long I can do that for, but I’ll give it my best shot.
🥹 let's grow old together, jin. even when i'm old and grey, i'll hopefully still be there attending concerts waving my army bomb - we're in this bangtan shit for life 🫂

I'm already old and grey (57) and it makes me so happy to think that I'll have Jin entertaining me for the rest of my life.

Gosh I felt a lump in my throat when he said he doesn't know how long he can do this for. I know the time for BTS to retire or do other things will happen eventually, but the thought of it just makes me emotional. I've not been ARMY from the very start of it all but I still feel as though I've journeyed with them. I truly hope that Jin will always be loved by people no matter what he is doing.

Jin can be the most unserious person ever. However, he can do or say things that leave you in awe, and it stays with you. I love reading interviews or seeing him be interviewed. He is one of the most fascinating people. For example, if Joon is able to connect to you on, some what of another worldly level (think more deep and thought-provoking), then Jin is the one who connects to you on a more human level ( think more balanced, loving, familiar, comforting, unserious and serious). I hope I explained that right. Jin has a way of connecting to your heart and soul like no other person. No more evident than when he took to the stage after 18 months, 1 day after being discharged, and greeted us by shouting ARMY! With tears in his eyes. While we were sobbing like babies. 18 months of missing him, and he healed our hearts with 1 word! He truly is the most beautiful person.

Agree, 100%!
Jk: What if he flings it? Jin: Then, he flings it.
This, really shifted my perspective.

Jin (and RM) made me a BTS fan and this comment summed perfectly how they reeled me in. It wasn't the music that hooked me completely, but Jin's personality that made me crave watching Run episodes and interviews. Watching him be him was the perfect way to start the day. The music was a plus.
I love all the members, but Jin is who I relate to the most and you nailed why.

u/Most-Mouse438 Nov 05 '24
I've never met someone like them. I love them all, but my fave friendship in Bts is Namjin haha, they balance each other out, and brings out the best from each other. (Jin brings out the cute, childish side of our hardworking and always worried leader, while Namjoon brings out the wise and practical side of Jin that's often hidden.)😊

u/Ninjabenaton Nov 05 '24
You explained perfectly their friendship! I must admit I love seeing the dynamics between the different friendships they all have with each other. If Namjin is peace and balance, then Jinkook is chaos and child like fun! They are all truly remarkable people. Love our OT7 so damn much!

I also love watching Jin in Run episodes. I just recently watched the zombie episode again. I haven't laughed so hard in ages. Poor Jin 🤣🤣. Also, not him flexing that he knew something was up when they saw the zombies. Shout out to poor Hobi in that episode. I am pretty sure his soul left his body temporarily. I just wanted to hug him. Suga and Jimin faired a little better, but not by much. Mean while Joon, Jk, and Taehyung are going about it like it is a normal day 🤣🤣. Love our OT7.

"I laugh every day, so I’m not sure when it was. I am laughing as we speak at this very moment (laughs). I’m happy!"
Jin keeping it all on brand! But he does seem very happy and content with himself at the moment. So joyful and grounded.
I'm really delighted for him!

This man is so special. I never saw a artist love and respect their fans so much like bts. I hope he knows how loved by army he is.

i looove how he looks in these more saturated colours, like the burgundy outfits he’s been wearing or this yellow set or the bright green sweater he wore during one of the eps for jin’s drunken truth. they pop so nicely against his skin tone
