BTS’ Jin took a nostalgic trip back to his alma mater, Bosung High School , on the August 20th broadcast of ‘Run Jin’, bringing a whirlwind of excitement and joy to the campus. Dressed in his old school uniform , Jin embraced a charmingly nostalgic role, transforming into the handsome and innocent student he once was. With a playful nod to his past, Jin humorously reflected, “During my school days, I was a so-called nerd.
I was a loser. I never thought I’d be back as a superstar”, as quoted by Kbizoom. His candid remarks and endearing appearance delighted the current students, who greeted him with enthusiastic cheers and shouts of “You’re so handsome!” and “I love you!” The visit turned into a delightful celebration as Jin engaged in a series of entertaining challenges with the students, showcasing his variety show skills and infectious personality.
His attempts to convince the students to forgo a physically demanding challenge in exchange for pizza were met with laughter and friendship. Jin’s playful banter continued as he humorously remarked, “BTS is doing well” when he struggled to keep pace with an ARMY student in recognizing BTS’s songs, adding to the episode’s lighthearted atmosphere. The heartwarming reunion continued as Jin had a touching moment with his former homeroom teacher at the school’s snack bar, further endearing himself to the students and viewers alike.
His interactions with the students included an arm-wrestling match and demonstrations of the breakfall techniques he learned during his school days, blending seamlessly with the youthful energy around him. The episode concluded with a teaser for the next installment of ‘Run Jin,’ which revealed a comically flustered Jin as a ‘PC Bang part-timer' overwhelmed by a rush of food orders and a lively crowd of children. This preview left fans eagerly anticipating the next episode’s adventures.
Meanwhile, ‘Run Jin’ airs every Tuesday at 9 PM on BTS’ YouTube channel, with episodes becoming available on the global superfan platform Weverse an hour later..
