BIGHIT MUSIC has planned special event post Jin's discharge
Despite discouraging fans from visiting the discharge site, BIGHIT MUSIC has planned a special event for fans following Jin's discharge. The agency announced on June 2 that this year's BTS FESTA will feature Jin greeting fans and giving out hugs. The event is scheduled for Thursday (June 13, which marks BTS's debut anniversary) at Seoul's Jamsil Arena and will be followed by a live-streamed showcase on Weverse for ARMY members.
Jin's solo music career achieved milestone amidst military service
A recent report suggested that BTS members, who are all currently serving, will reunite to celebrate Jin's discharge privately. In addition to his military service, Jin has also made significant strides in his solo music career. His music video for The Astronaut reached a milestone of 100M views on December 4, coinciding with his birthday. The song was co-written by Jin, British rock band Coldplay, and Norwegian DJ Kygo, who collaborated with Bill Rahko for production.
