BTS Jin Announces RUN JIN’s Return; Teases ‘Kidnapping’ of J-Hope

The eldest member of BTS, Kim Seokjin, had brought back his hit reality show RUN JIN, keeping ARMYs around the world in high spirits.

BTS’ Jin Announces Return of RUN JIN, Teases Successful ‘Kidnapping’ of J-Hope in New Teaser

Now the latest RUN JIN teaser is sending the internet into a tailspin and is even hinting towards a cameo from fellow BTS member J-Hope. Set to arrive on November 26 via BANGTAN TV, the teaser begins with Jin having fun playing games before what appears to be blind date meetings. The mood takes a hilarious turn when Jin says, “I think the right thing to do is kidnap ***.” The camera then shifts to a figure dressed in a red outfit and a cute beanie, which has led fans to speculate that the mystery guest might be J-Hope.

In the teaser, thousands of ecstatic fans have already reacted to the reunion of the beloved 2Seok duo. This follows Jin slyly vowing on a livestream, “I will kidnap Hobi the moment he is discharged,” and it appears he’s done so in jest. J-Hope, who completed his military service on October 17, became the second BTS member discharged, following Jin. Rather than letting his younger bandmate rest, Jin appears to be “encouraging” him to jump straight back into work with RUN JIN.

Since its launch, RUN JIN has been praised for its adventurous and heartwarming content. The first episode saw Jin conquering the Hallasan mountains in Jeju, with future episodes featuring guests like Ji Seok Jin, Lee Yi Kyung, TXT’s Yeonjun, and Jin’s close friend Sandeul. Jin has also achieved solo success, with his debut album Happy recently debuting at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 chart, making him the latest BTS member to achieve this solo milestone. Stay tuned for the next RUN JIN episode on BANGTAN TV to see if Jin has succeeded in “kidnapping” J-Hope and enjoy another round of laughter from BTS’ eldest member and his unforgettable guests.
