BTS' Jin got emotional seeing ARMY at Gucci show

Jin looked dapper in a brown outfit for the Gucci show, wearing a brown and black tie-dye jumper with matching brown pants. He finished the look with a black belt. The ARMY that had gathered outside were seen chanting his name ‘Kim Seok-jin' as he obliged to stop by and greet them.

Jin said, "I'm a superstar. I went to a Gucci show. You guys came and I became a superstar, so I went to the Gucci show as an ambassador. It was fun. A lot of fans, ARMY, came. I got emotional in the car. It's been a long time since I've been nervous. Thanks to the fans' support, many people looked at me and were surprised. They said, "It's BTS!" ARMY, those who are here, thank you for supporting me."

BTS' Jin didn't know anyone at the Gucci after-party

A lot of fans wrote on social media how Jin was an introvert and must've had a difficult time in a social convention all by himself. The K-pop idol said, "I've been to an after-party. I went there wondering what kind of place it was. I don't know anyone. I sat down and drank champagne for about half an hour. I talked to the company staff. They're all pretty! The president of Gucci Korea took good care of me. I came back after a while. You all know the atmosphere. It was fun. I don't like a party. But I enjoyed it well."

Jin was the first one to get discharged from mandatory military service in June. The occasion was even more special as it coincided with the group's 11th debut anniversary. Jin signed up in December 2022 and was out by June 2025. Upon his discharge, Jin hugged 1000 lucky fans as a part of his meet and greet session. It was the biggest highlight of the FESTA celebrations.
