On October 14, 2024, BTS Jin posted a few photos on his Instagram, wearing a casual blue tracksuit and white t-shirt. The singer looked effortlessly cool, and his fellow group member Namjoon left a comment under this post. Namjoon, the leader of BTS, wrote (loosely translated from Korean):
"Oh our hyung wears good casual/daily clothes"
Fans of the group were thrilled to see this interaction between the two idols. The duo of Jin and Namjoon is lovingly called 'Namjin', a portmanteau word that combines both their names. Namjoon's comment on Jin's post prompted many 'Namjin' fans to fawn over their bonding. A BTS fan referred to this interaction and wrote:
"Oh my namjin"
"World stop. namjin breathed," another fan tweeted.
"NAMJINN NATION RISEEEE," someone excliamed.
Fans of the K-pop group were also in awe of how the leader of the group referred to Jin as 'our hyung' (older brother).
"Our hyung!! my namjin," - another fan emphasised.
ARMY flooded social media as they celebrated this interaction and complimented BTS Jin's beauty.
"World Wide Handsome for a reason," an X user said.
"How can he go out looking so handsome casually like that... Hats off to BTS who survive his beaty attack daily," another fan remarked.
A fan commented how Jin summons the group's rap line whenever he posts something. This is so because recently BTS member j-hope also left a comment on the Super Tuna hitmaker's post on Instagram.
"Another day, another seokjin post casually summoning rapline," a comment read.
"He summoned Joon again hahahaha," an ARMY reacted.
"It’s not BTS if they’re not simping for each other," an X user said.
