Jin holds the true power! 😂
When it comes to BTS, it seems like a day doesn’t go by where a member doesn’t cement their status as the “Sold Out Kings” in K-Pop. Whether it is a drink, an outfit, or something small, if the members have it, ARMYs want it.
Recently, BTS’s Jin caught the attention of fans for making an unusual product become sold out!
During the past week, Jin has been extremely active on Instagram, sharing the things he’s been doing during his extended vacation. In particular, he caught the attention of fans after he visited his uncle’s strawberry farm and took some adorable pictures with the fruit.
ARMYs weren’t the only ones who had their attention caught by Jin and his strawberries. J-Hope seemed upset, commenting, “Strawberries? Without seeing me?“
Luckily, Jin seemed to realize just how J-Hope must be missing the members and replied in a way that ARMYs believed was flirty, adding, “Jwe-Hope, come take some strawberries.“
In the end, it all worked out for the better as the two members reunited when Jin brought over the special strawberries, and J-Hope shared the box on Instagram.
It seemed like the strawberries became a gift for Jin to give as he gave some to his sister-in-law, who is pregnant. Jin’s brother revealed that his pregnant wife, Ah Reum was craving strawberries. So, being a thoughtful brother-in-law, Jin delivered them himself, thus curing his sister-in-law’s craving.
Because the pregnant woman wanted to eat these, a very precious person personally delivered the strawberries themselves. So freaking delicious!!
