BTS' Jin is set to kick off his solo tour in late June, with stops in nine cities worldwide.

This is the most blindsided I’ve felt in my life, reads a tweet, after BTS’ Jin-never-let-them-know-your-next-move announced his tour, Run Seokjin, which will kick off in June.

It has been an eventful year for Jin, with fans wondering if he has managed to sleep at all, between variety shows, two albums and now planning a tour. The vocalist  will perform in nine cities, including Newark, London, Amsterdam and Tokyo. And, this would be just after his band member J-Hope wraps up his tour. And yet, more than that, the rest of the BTS members, Jimin, Jungkook, V, RM and Suga would’ve returned from their mandatory military service.

So, does that mean we’re going to see them all together again at Jin’s concert? ARMY is absolutely convinced that they will, and that the ‘family will be back together again’, after all being scattered and apart for practically three years. Some fans, referring to his fun variety show Run Seokjin, made jokes about what surprises the concert will hold. “Run Jin tour, but instead of your regular concert, he’s performing while armys are going through an obstacle course like wipeout.”

Others commented on how Jin is giving the rest of the members to refresh and recharge after service, “Jin, going on a solo tour right after the OT7 reunion is not a coincidence, he knows what it’s like to be discharged and jump straight into work, but this way, he is giving the members time to adjust.” Another added, “He gave us 0 business days to freak out Echo, before dropping the world tour announcement.”

Chaos is already ensuing, but the good kind.
