News about Kim Seok-jin

Jin, 30, the oldest member of the organization, is the first member of the organization to register for national service. On Tuesday, he arrived at the training base in Yeoncheon, north of Seoul. This band is currently on hiatus after an announcement this year that fans are still worried about the K-pop juggernaut's uncertain future. The septet is widely regarded as the country's largest-ever cultural phenomenon, selling out stadiums around the world and dominating the charts, while still raking in billions and creating a global body of supporters known as ARMYs.

Kim Seok-jin, a member of the BTS, has shaven his hair in favor of a shorter, more close look ahead of a mandatory military service period. Fans had mixed reactions when Jin posted a snapshot of his latest look on Weverse. The look in question is a buzz cut, which is a long way from the long fringe in which we're used to seeing him. The actor captioned the article, which loosely translates to "haha cuter than I expected." Many viewers were in agreement, expressing how much they adored his latest haircut. "WWH (world wide handsome) even got a buzz cut," one commentator wrote. Another said, "So CUTE."

BTS debates over whether or not they should be exempted from South Korea's compulsory military service have raged for almost a year. Nonetheless, it wasn't until a few weeks ago that the group members and its parent company, Big Hit Music, announced the group's upcoming conscription after conquering Busan's Unexpected Arrival concert. According to the statements, all members will enlist once their respective personal schedules have been completed, beginning with BTS' oldest member, Jin. The announcement of Jin's long-awaited solo venture stood out from the rest of the interview. "I hope many people don't know this song," he said of rapper Lee Youngji's YouTube appearance "No Prepare." In his musical journey, the Korean superstar has gone from land to sea, now, space. Jin's artistic journey comes full circle with his brand-new single "The Astronaut" out today (October 28), which can be seen as the ultimate passion project.
