Today, September 30, BTS arrived at Incheon International Airport to depart for Atlanta, USA. This is a connecting flight to Bogotá, Colombia, where the South αмєяι¢αn leg of BTS WORLD TOUR ‘ARIRANG’ will officially kick off on October 2 and 3.

For this overseas trip, only five members — Jin, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook — departed together. RM had already left for the U.S. on September 28 to prepare for the opening speech at an exhibition event he is collaborating on with SFMOMA, while SUGA headed there on September 29 for his individual schedule.

Although it was early in the morning, many reporters and fans had already arrived at the airport to wait for the members. Meanwhile, the superstars appeared in casual, comfortable outfits for the long flight while still looking stylish. Jin particularly caught attention in a T-shirt featuring Jungkook, while Jungkook had two cameras hanging around his neck. The group chatted and laughed as they leisurely made their way into Terminal 2. Although they looked a little tired, they remained friendly and interacted with the reporters.

Notably, several videos capturing an υиєχρє¢тє∂ moment involving j-hope as BTS departed this morning sparked lively discussion among fans shortly afterward.

At first, j-hope was seen entering the airport with the other four members. However, in some videos taken afterward, the idol suddenly appeared to be walking separately with his security guards and manager, even looking quite rushed. A short while later, j-hope was seen coming back out and hurriedly running toward the area where the BTS members were checking in, eventually joining the group as they headed inside the boarding lounge as usual.

Since BTS normally travels together at the airport, j-hope suddenly splitting off on his own for a short while left many people wondering what had happened.

Another video from a reporter’s livestream was later discovered by fans and quickly solved the “mystery.” When j-hope was seen coming back to reunite with BTS, he smiled shyly, waved at everyone, and explained, “Because the bathroom is over there!” As it turned out, the reason the BTS superstar had been in such a hurry was simply because he was rushing to use the bathroom before boarding the plane.

At that point, fans could not help but laugh, especially at his shy expression and the adorable way he hurried back to the group. Many fans also commented that the moment reminded them that, despite being a global K-pop superstar, he is still just an ordinary person, with reactions along the lines of, “Ah, even a global K-pop superstar has to use the bathroom before getting on a plane just like the rest of us.”

The hilarious moment quickly attracted plenty of witty comments from fans: "He ran cutely after that", "He’s literally so curled up omfg i love you Hobi", "HAHAHAHAHAHA Hoseok I love you so much", "him looking so tiny running LMAOOO", "HAHAAHAH that tteokbokki before heading to the airport нιт hard", "Who hasn't gotten sudden stomach cramps out of nowhere right, iconic", "Him like 'brb, just went to take a quick pee",...
