Jung Kook [BTS]’s back hug triggers Jin’s hilarious reaction

BTS members Jin and Jung Kook [BTS] displayed their signature playfulness and extraordinary chemistry behind the scenes. While one wore a relaxed smile, the other made an expression as if complaining with his entire body, drawing laughter from fans.

On the 10th, Jin released several selfies taken with Jung Kook [BTS] on his SNS without any additional explanation.

In the photos, the two are facing the camera in a relaxed atmosphere in a space that appears to be backstage after finishing their performance. Jung Kook [BTS], positioned behind the seated Jin, naturally hugs him while resting his chin lightly on Jin's head with a bright smile.

However, Jin's expression was quite different from Jung Kook's.

Looking at Jung Kook hugging him from behind, Jin frowned as if dissatisfied. While seemingly accustomed to Jung Kook's playful physical affection, his expression—as if saying "stop it now"—hinted at the close relationship between the two.

The pranks did not end there.

In the subsequent photos released, Jin showed exaggerated reactions, such as tightly closing his eyes, opening his mouth wide, and spreading both hands, as if screaming with his entire body. It was as if he had finally made a 'soul-leaving-the-body' expression due to Jung Kook's continuous teasing.

The reason their relationship is even more entertaining is that the image they show on stage is starkly different from the atmosphere in these photos. While they are stars who overwhelm tens of thousands of spectators during performances, behind the scenes, they return to being like ordinary brothers, teasing each other and creating laughter.

In particular, as Jin's exaggerated expressions contrasted with Jung Kook's nonchalant smile, their unique playfulness was fully conveyed through just a few photos. Seeing this, ARMYs around the world also laughed at the 'real brothers' chemistry between the two.

BTS is currently continuing its North American tour.

The two held the second performance of their North American tour in East Rutherford, USA, on the 1st and 2nd (local time). Following the successful completion of the Foxborough performance, they are scheduled to move to M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore on the 10th and 11th to continue the tour fever.

It is especially significant as BTS is the first Korean artist to hold a solo concert at that stadium.

As global stars on stage, and as brothers who accept each other's pranks and create laughter behind the scenes, these brief daily photos shown by Jin and Jung Kook [BTS] once again demonstrated their long-standing friendship and the unique, cheerful teamwork of BTS.
