The singer earlier celebrated BTS’ 11th anniversary with fans and hosted a grand event. While speaking at the event, Jin said, “I need to talk about FESTA. I gave a good idea, but it received a lot of criticism. I took a look at it so let me try to explain. I took a draft with me from the start. Since I am in charge of the FESTA by myself this time, I contacted the organizer around October, November last year. But they were honest and said they already planned everything so there wasn’t much left to do. They asked me if I had any ideas. I said I wanted to do a free hug event, but they said no.”
He recently visited his high school to shoot for a project and was seen wearing his school uniform.
