BTS’ Jin, who is currently embarked on one of the major Kpop tours of all time along with the other six members of BTS, is ready to disclose his mind to the fandom in a special interview with ELLE Korea. The pictorial and interview are now yours to go on a deep journey inside Jin’s mind.
The photoshoot was a collaboration with Gucci, for which Jin has served as a global brand ambassador for a while now. The idol was set against the backdrop of a vintage hotel, as he captivated the audience with his restrained yet intense gaze, exuding a rugged energy and a deeper sense of presence.
“나답다는 건, 그리고 ‘진답다’는 건, 내가 원하는 대로 산다는 것일 거예요. 물론 모든 걸 다 할 수는 없겠지만.”(웃음)

Then, the idol sat down with ELLE Korea for an introspective interview, which included the most memorable moment from BTS’s ongoing world tour “ARIRANG.” Jin immediately answered about the special moment that replayed in his mind:
“Starting this world tour in Goyang is what stands out the most. It rained so heavily that day, and somehow rainy days always leave the strongest memories. It was such a fun moment that I thought I’d probably never get caught in the rain like that again.”
In addition, Jin was asked about what music has given to him all over the years, as recently BTS celebrated their 13th anniversary, along with other memorable moments of Jin’s journey as his solo career.
“Everything, I’d say. In a way, music is what gave me the life I have now.”
