A Stage Without BTS Still Feels Strange, Says Jin
After the July 12 show, Jin took to Weverse Live to thank fans and reflect on his experience as a soloist. While grateful, he admitted it felt “awkward” performing without the other six BTS members. “I’ve been on stage with them for over 10 years,” he said. “It’s hard not to think about them.”
Jin reassured fans that all members are doing well and continuing to give their best, wherever they are. His heartfelt comments struck a chord with the army worldwide.
