In the video shared widely on X, Jin appeared to be fighting back his own tears while he consoled the officer. Jin caressed his back and let him cry his heart out. However, Jin eventually broke down later. Another video surfaced online showing him wipe his tears as he bid farewell to his military life.

Watch the videos below:

In a live session in Weverse, he confessed to “crying a lot.” “It’s been a long time since I’ve been on camera.. I’m usually good looking and very confident about my looks but I cried earlier so I’m not very confident about it today. I cried twice today… I told my juniors who were with me for 1 year and 4 months, to not cry cause I won’t be able to not cry if they do but they ended up sobbing so there was no way I couldn’t cry.”

Except for Jin, the other BTS members are still serving their mandatory military duties. They are expected to reunite as a full group in 2025.
