How BTS Jin helped ARMY cope through the band's long break with laughter, chaos and endless love

 BTS’ Jin’s variety show Run Jin came to an end after over 36 episodes. While it was filled with the trademark hilarity and fun, one scene left Jin visibly moved: A message from J-Hope. The rapper shared an emotional message for the eldest member, thanking him for everything that he does for ARMY, appreciating how Jin always knows how to make others laugh, and has made the wait so much easier in the past year, while the other members were at military service. “You are the biggest fool for ARMY,” J-Hope said.

Jin was close to tears on hearing this, and thanked J-Hope profusely for his words. In the emotional video, J-Hope thanked Jin for everything he has done for ARMY, praising his ability to lift spirits and make others laugh — especially during the time when the rest of the members were completing their military service. “You are the biggest fool for ARMY,” J-Hope said, a sentiment that brought Jin to the brink of tears. He thanked J-Hope sincerely, visibly touched by the gesture.

Since then, fans on Twitter have been reflecting on how true J-Hope’s words are. Despite being in military service himself from December 2022 to June 2024, Jin found ways to stay present — from pre-recorded monthly video messages to surprise Weverse Lives — keeping the fandom entertained and comforted. “He has truly been so caring, making sure we were always smiling — whether through variety shows or just random lives,” one fan wrote. Another added, “Our Tuesdays will never be the same without it. We’ll keep running with you, our dearest superstar.”
