Many people know that auditions or castings are the direct path to becoming a trainee at entertainment companies. But there are also quite a few idols who were “recruited” by the staffs of entertainment company on the street because they “stand out too much”.

Jin is one of the rare idols who was recruited this way while studying at Konkuk University, majoring in acting!

The story of how Jin received an offer to join SM Entertainment and Big Hit Entertainment at the same time was previously shared by him. At that time, Jin was very cautious when SM Ent staff approached him and was so afraid of being scammed that he refused the offer to become an idol.

Notably, Big Hit Entertainment - a small and not-so-famous company at that time like SM - received Jin's nod later. The story behind it has been revealed in detail! Big Hit Entertainment staff seem to have more experience and are better at "playing trick".

"I was fooled (laughs)". Jin laughs, thinking back to his casting at Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Entertainment in the spring of 2011. He continued, "Look at how idols these days go into acting, 'We’ll let you become an actor eventually'. That’s how they convinced me. They were very persuasive."

It turns out that Jin didn't give up acting from the start as many people mistakenly believe, but rather believed that joining Big Hit Entertainment was his chance to debut as an actor. But even now, what the person in charge of signing the contract promised him back then has not technically come true.

In fact, he is now so busy with his work as a world-class idol that it's difficult to arrange his schedule to join a film crew. Fortunately, his acting talent is still recognized through MVs, short films or acting challenges in game shows.

Anyway, thanks to Big Hit Music's "trick" that worked, we have BTS's Jin and the new BTS 7 as complete as today. But fans also hope that in the future, we will see Jin debut as an actor, showing off his highly appreciated abilities:

- But in reality also his agency who throw away their promises. Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ must do it now

- That's how they convinced Jin to join bts,they didn't allow jin to become actor or just try to become an extra. I hope he will be an actor the next year

- Now that they are in their solo activities, i can now manifest Actor Jin without anyone policing.

- I hope he can act after being discharged from the army, I'm really looking forward to actor Jin

- He's clearly very good at acting, it's a shame if he can't carry a movie

- Jin deserves to act and become an actor, it was his original dream

- Even though Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ tricked him into becoming a member of BTS, my heart нυятs, he wanted to act.

- Please do it when you come back, we want to see you as an actor
