A surge of emotions swept through the Incheon Munhak Stadium on Friday when Jin, one of the members of South Korean pop group BTS, brought a heart-warming mini-reunion to his performance on the RunSeokjin EP. Tour.
What began as a solo concert transformed into a nostalgic collective moment as Jin was joined on stage by fellow BTS members J-Hope and Jung Kook, followed by V and Jimin on Saturday.
On October 31 in Incheon, fans erupted when J-Hope and Jung Kook appeared mid-show to sing with Jin, first as surprise backup dancers during “Super Tuna”, then joining him for a medley of BTS classics including “IDOL”, “So What”, “My Universe”, and “Jamais Vu”.
The next day, V made an emotional entrance before performing his solo track “Love Me Again” together with Jin.
But what truly sent supporters insane was when Jin urged V and Jimin to sing parts of “Spring Day”, with the song having served as a love letter between BTS and their fans for nearly a decade.
Fans share videos of reunion
BTS fans went into overdrive, sharing clips of touching moments online.
Videos showed the members dancing and laughing together onstage, with many describing the moment as a “gift” and a sign that the group’s bond remains unshaken.
“JHOPE AND JUNGKOOK COMING OUT DURING IDOL AND SO WHAT WAS PURE CHAOS. THEY WERE SO CUTE AND FUNNY SPLASHING WATER AT JIN LIKE TWO KIDS. THE ENERGY, THE VIBES, EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT!,” @kimjeonayesha wrote on X.
Another fan commended Jimin’s voice, saying that it had been a while since they saw him perform.
“Jimin’s voice feels soft, healing, and warm like the first blossoms after a long winter,” @PJM_data said.
The surprise appearance reignited fans’ anticipation for the group as a whole, especially ahead of their planned comeback in 2026.
