BTS Jin has shone in popularity by ranking first in the 'Artists You'd Want to Sit Next to in a New Semester' poll.

Jin secured first place in the 'Artists You'd Want to Sit Next to in a New Semester' poll conducted by Forbes Korea and Mnet Plus. Out of a total of 805,038 votes, Jin received 337,284 votes, demonstrating explosive popularity and influence with an overwhelming 42.1% of the vote share.
Loved as both the 'Visual King' and 'Vocal King', Jin exudes powerful charisma and an unparalleled aura on stage, while off-stage, his unrealistic looks contrast with a down-to-earth and warm charm that has captured the hearts of countless fans and the general public worldwide.
After receiving glowing praise in every aspect last year and successfully concluding his solo world tour '#RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR', Jin continues to deliver outstanding performances in the ongoing BTS world tour. Beyond his main activities, he is also leading top-tier reactions with exceptional performances in commercials and variety shows.

Jin, who sweeps first place in various polls, is also dominating new semester-related polls, having recorded first place in idolpick's 'Idols You'd Want to Meet as Seniors in the New Semester', among others.
The group BTS, of which Jin is a member, successfully concluded its first U.S. performance of the 'Arirang World Tour' (BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG') in Tampa on April 25, 26, and 28 (local time).
As the 'God of Beauty' and 'Live King', Jin led overwhelming reactions with his beautiful and solid silver voice, elegant performances, and excellent stage manners. BTS will continue its performances in El Paso, U.S., starting May 2 (local time). BTS's 'Arirang World Tour' is setting a new record as the largest-scale tour in K-pop history.
