It was recently reported on a Japanese media outlet that the nine episodes of Law of the Jungle featuring BTS member Jin will be re-aired on Japanese television beginning this month! 


The reason for its sudden re-airing is due to Jin massive popularity in Japan. The show, which originally aired in 2017 had high viewer ratings. During the show's filming in Indonesia in 2016, Jin's fans so wanted to meet him that they even rented boats in order to get a better view. 

Jin, whose real name is Kim Seokjin, is a member of the South Korean boy group BTS. Born on December 4, 1992, in Gwacheon, South Korea, Jin is the oldest member of BTS.


Before joining BTS, Jin was a student at Konkuk University, majoring in acting. He was discovered by Big Hit Entertainment when he was out eating with friends and was asked to audition for the company.

He joined BTS in 2013 as a vocalist and visual.
Jin is known for his strong vocals, often taking on the chorus or high notes in BTS's songs. He has also contributed to the group's songwriting, with credits on tracks like "Awake" and "Epiphany."
