BTS's Jin, transformed into the Prince of Tennis, showcased outstanding variety sense. On the 17th, the 6th episode of the self-produced content 'Run, Sokjin' was released on BTS's official YouTube channel, featuring a chaotic tennis match between Jin and actor Lee I-kyung, bringing great laughter. The 'best friend chemistry' created by the two, who have had a special bond since before their debut, displayed not only humor but also a heartwarming atmosphere. Jin and Lee I-kyung exchanged rallies holding shovels and frying pans instead of tennis rackets, competing fiercely to win against elementary school tennis players, eliciting laughter. Particularly, when Jin scored, he showcased a glamorous celebration to tease the children, and when in a disadvantageous situation, he shouted, 'This is unfair!' showing a lack of discretion. The two moved between being friends and foes, engulfing the scene in laughter. Unlike the elementary school students who comforted each other's mistakes, Jin and Lee I-kyung shouted, 'If I hit the ball, you have to cover for me at least once!' and used all sorts of tricks to hinder each other's exit in a game betting on leaving work. However, even amidst this, Jin showed consideration for Lee I-kyung by telling him to leave work early, and Lee I-kyung replied, 'I'll leave work together,' creating a warm atmosphere of support for Jin. The 7th episode featuring a doppelgänger special will feature comedian Ji Seok-jin. 'Run, Sokjin' is released every Tuesday at 9 PM on BTS's official YouTube channel and is also streamed on the fan community platform Weverse an hour later.
