The lives of seven boys from South Korea had a permanent shift on June 13, 2013. Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Park Jimin, Kim Taehyung, and Jeon Jungkook of BTS were originally Kim Seokjin, Min Yoongi, Jung Hoseok, Kim Namjoon, Park Jimin, Kim Taehyung, and Jeon Jungkook.

Jin discusses how his friendships have been affected by his dual identity as Kim Seokjin and Jin of BTS in Episode 3 of Break The Silence.

He said, “I think the two lives are identical, but I don’t live them identically.” BTS’s Jin seems to always be happy, in my opinion.

“I’m still living an extremely happy life as Kim Seokjin, and not much has changed for me. However, as Jin of BTS, life can be a little challenging on the other side. You lose some if you gain some.

There is a lot of pressure to schedule meetings. My friends find it tough to be around me even though I haven’t changed.

The fact that they are growing apart from me is really a shame.

A lot of the individuals in my life have died”.

Although losing friends is terrible, Jin is focusing on the supporters who helped him achieve his goals rather than what he has lost.
