BTS’ Jin Offers Money to Kid for Complimenting His Handsome Looks: Fans React Hilariously in Latest RUN JIN Episode

The latest episode of RUN JIN, titled PRINCE OF TENNIS, premiered online on Tuesday, September 17. The episode featured BTS Jin playing tennis alongside South Korean actor Lim Yi-kyung. The twist was that the winner of their tennis match would get to leave home sooner.

This compliment caught Jin off guard, and in a light-hearted manner, he jokingly offered the boy money in exchange for the flattering remark. Fans found this interaction both hilarious and endearing. Here’s how they responded:

“He’s so unserious.”
