According to the post, the fan was waiting at a bus stop while carrying her phone, which had a photo of BTS’s Jin in his military uniform, when a criminal tried to rob her.
A 21-year-old Paranaque girl escaped a robbery by carrying a photo of singer Jin from the South Korean group BTS on her cellphone. In the image, the artist is wearing an army uniform, as he is serving military service in South Korea. Natali Vitoria Ramos Reis said she was at a bus stop in São José dos Pinhais, in the Curitiba Metropolitan Region, when she was approached by the criminal.

The fan claims in the report that when the criminal saw Jin’s photo on her phone, they got cold feet. The fan guesses it may be because the criminal must have thought the fan’s boyfriend was in the military.
Natali said, When he managed to grab the cell phone from my hand, he turned the device around and looked at the picture. He must have thought my boyfriend was in the military, because he didn’t steal it. The student said that the assailant returned the phone and ran out.
