BTS’s Jin is set to take the global stage as a solo artist. Coinciding with the release of his first solo album ‘Happy,’ Jin will appear on NBC TV’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on the 21st (local time) to showcase the title track ‘Running Wild.’
According to BigHit Music, The Tonight Show released a teaser video on its official social media the day before, announcing Jin’s appearance. The video features a humorous scene where host Jimmy Fallon inserts a floppy disk labeled ‘Special Guest’ into a computer, and the instrumental of Jin’s new song ‘Running Wild’ starts playing.
BTS has previously appeared on The Tonight Show in July 2021, performing ‘Butter’ and ‘Permission to Dance.’ Following this, members Jimin, Suga, and JungKook also appeared on the show with their solo tracks, continuing their connection with the program. As this is Jin’s first official stage as a solo artist, anticipation is building for his performance and talk segment.
Jin’s solo album ‘Happy’ will be released globally on the 15th at 2 PM. The album contains a total of six tracks, including the title track ‘Running Wild,’ ‘I’ll Be There,’ ‘Another Level,’ ‘Until I Reach You,’ ‘Heart on the Window,’ and ‘In Longing.’ Notably, the title track ‘Running Wild’ is a pop-rock song based on British rock, featuring production by Gary Barlow of the famous British pop band Take That, conveying a bright and warm message of running towards hope.
Meanwhile, Jin recently shared a message of encouragement for students preparing for the 2025 College Scholastic Ability Test through the team’s official YouTube channel. He expressed his warm support, saying, “I sincerely wish all the examinees achieve their desired results.”
With Jin’s new beginning and his journey as a solo artist, expectations are rising. As his future activities are highly anticipated, there is much interest in the various sides Jin will showcase.
