BTS EPISODE: Jin at the Paris 2024 Olympics as the Torchbearer

He said, "I'm not an athlete or someone representing my country," but as a member of BTS, who has not only received an Order of Cultural Merit from the President of South Korea but was also an official presidential envoy for South Korea at the UN General Assembly, Jin will always be someone representing his country. And that — among many other reasons — is why there were more ARMY there cheering him on as a torchbearer than some actual Olympians.
