Jin, the oldest member of BTS, whose full name is Kim Seok-jin, received a warm welcome from his bandmates after completing his mandatory military service.
The 31-year-old South Korean singer-songwriter was discharged on Wednesday, June 12.
To celebrate his return, fellow BTS members RM, J-Hope, V, Jimin, and Jungkook performed a special saxophone rendition of “Dynamite.”
Other BTS members currently serving in the military requested time off from their duties to join the early morning celebration on Wednesday.
Jin, who began his military service in December 2022, quickly reconnected with fans via a livestream on Weverse after his discharge.
During the livestream from his agency HYBE’s headquarters, Jin remarked, “I’m normally more handsome than this, but I cried when I was discharged.”
He humorously added, “My eyes are puffy. I usually have confidence in my face, but I’m less confident today.”
Originally, the BTS members planned a celebratory reunion, but due to safety concerns, they opted for a private party in a closed setting, urging fans not to gather outside the military location.
