BTS-Jin

Jin

BTS member Jin was born in Anyang, Gyeonggi-do but his family moved to Gwacheon, Gyeonggi-do (South Korea) when he was a baby. Jin is 29 years old and he is the oldest member of BTS. He attended Konkuk University in Seoul where he graduated with a major in theater and film. Jin is the sub-vocalist of BTS (he is good at high notes in their songs) and he writes some of the group's lyrics.

Although Jin's main skills aren't dancing he has won praise as a choreographer from both his fans and his bandmates. He also knows how to play the piano, pipe organ and a bit of guitar. Jin received an offer from SM Entertainment when he was in middle school, he passed the first audition but thought it might be a scam and decided not to go any farther with the offer. He was later on scouted in his college days by Big Hit Entertainment for an acting role, but the company made him BTS trainee instead which lead to him being part of the group.

Jin is also known for his athletic gifts, he is good at snowboarding, tennis and golf, he even managed to do well at wakeboarding (on his first try!) on a local TV show. Jin thought of being a journalist in his first year of high school, but then changed his mind to acting after being moved by the acting in the Korean drama "Queen Seondeok". Although Jin eventually became a K-pop idol to diversify his experiences, he thinks that he would have been a farmer if he wasn't a singer since he used to work at his uncle's melon and strawberry farm. Jin was first to launch his own show "Eat Jin Live" on V's Live BTS channel. Jin is the cook in the group and often shares his cooking through his blog and the V app.
