BTS’s Jin has left a powerful mark as a solo artist on the global stage, with his first solo world tour receiving glowing reviews from major U.S. outlets.
Forbes, the Los Angeles Times, and the Dallas Observer all published reviews of the #RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR, praising Jin’s commanding stage presence and exceptional vocal ability.
Forbes ran an in-depth review under the headline, “Jin Brought Humor and Authenticity to Anaheim,” highlighting his “wide vocal range and impressive control of high notes.” The publication emphasized that Jin is “far more than just a handsome face,” giving high praise to his vocal prowess.
The Los Angeles Times described Jin’s performance at Anaheim’s Honda Center as “a masterclass in fan connection,” lauding how he dominated the stage with pure performance power and his ability to read the audience—even with a minimalist band setup.
The review further noted that “Jin possesses a unique ability to combine his individuality and interests into an integrated intellectual property that transcends visuals, merchandise, and formats.” His role in shaping the concert’s concept, structure, and direction was commended as a demonstration of his creative vision. As reflected in these analyses from influential industry media, Jin is being recognized as a rare, well-rounded artist who excels in planning, vocals, production, and audience engagement.
Although this world tour was a perfect finale in itself, fans have been flooding social media with calls for an encore concert immediately after the shows wrapped up.
