Jungkook and RM followed up with jokes about a 60th birthday party, while Jin laughed it off and replied that the last time someone asked, they thought he was turning 70.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\">\n        <blockquote hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/eternalhyyh\/status\/2000873056387076236?s=20\" class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udc25 Hyung, aren&#39;t you turning 50 next year?<br \/>\ud83d\udc39 \ud83e\udd23<br \/>\ud83d\udc28 I think he&#39;s somewhere around that now<br \/>\ud83d\udc3f It changes every year<br \/>\ud83d\udc2f Hyung, please lmk when you&#39;re having your 60th bday feast<br \/>\ud83d\udc25 \ud83e\udd23<br \/>\ud83d\udc28\ud83d\udc30 60th birthday party<br \/>\ud83d\udc39 The last time he asked me if it was my 70th\ud83d\ude02<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8AneBj8y2X\">pic.twitter.com\/8AneBj8y2X<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; \ud83d\udc99 \u1d2e\u1d31\ubc14\ub2e4\u2077 \ud83d\udc90 (SLOW) \ud83d\udc99 (@eternalhyyh) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/eternalhyyh\/status\/2000873056387076236?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">December 16, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n        <\/figure>\n        \n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\">\n        <blockquote><p><strong>Jimin<\/strong>: Hyung, aren&#8217;t you turning 50 next year?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jin<\/strong>: laughs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RM<\/strong>: I think he&#8217;s somewhere around that now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>J-Hope<\/strong>: It changes every year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>V<\/strong>: Hyung, please lmk when you&#8217;re having your 60th bday feast.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jimin<\/strong>: Laughs<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jungkook, RM<\/strong>: 60th birthday party.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jin<\/strong>: The last time he asked me if it was my 70th, laughs.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n        <\/figure>\n        \n<p>While many fans saw the moment as classic BTS banters, others did not find it funny at all! Some accused the members of <strong>age-shaming<\/strong> Jin, pointing out that they are all close in age and that the jokes felt offensive. The live stream footage started circulating online, with some fans defending Jin and connecting the jokes to dating-related controversies involving other members. In particular, Song Da Eun was mentioned, a lady who was rumored to be linked to Jimin and is reportedly older than Jin. These offended fans questioned why age jokes were acceptable in one context but criticized in another. <img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-154363\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTS-Jin-age-shaming.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTS-Jin-age-shaming.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTS-Jin-age-shaming-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTS-Jin-age-shaming-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTS-Jin-age-shaming-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTS-Jin-age-shaming-1100x733.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTS-Jin-age-shaming-680x453.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTS-Jin-age-shaming-200x133.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Despite the backlash, a large portion of the fandom defended the group, emphasizing that Jin himself was laughing and clearly comfortable with the jokes. Fans argued that this kind of banter has always been part of BTS\u2019s dynamic and that reading malice into it was a stretch. Still, the moment shows how quickly interactions can turn into serious online discourse, especially if it\u2019s about a BTS member. Even a joke can become an Internet headline, with controversies surrounding every single word.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During a special BTS live stream on December 16, 2025, the members did what they have always done best with each other, jokes and teasing.
