BTS’ Jin continues to prove that his charm extends far beyond the stage. Known for his generosity and down-to-earth personality, the singer recently received high praise from two of his collaborators, Red Velvet’s Wendy and soloist Choi Yena, who shared heartwarming stories about their experiences working with him.
On October 9, both artists appeared on separate radio programs, Wendy on SBS PowerFM’s 2 O’Clock Escape Cultwo Show and Yena on MBC’s Radio Star — where they spoke fondly of Jin’s professionalism, warmth, and sincerity.
Wendy recalled collaborating with the BTS star on their duet Heart on the Window and revealed how seriously Jin took his promises. “Jin made a promise to be loyal,” she shared. “He told me that if he ever appeared on a radio show, it would be mine. Since I participated in a song as a featured artist, he said he’d definitely come. He even told his company in advance so they could add it to his schedule. Before I could ask, they told me, ‘Wendy, he’s decided to appear.’ I was so thankful.”
She also reminisced about receiving the call to feature on his solo track Loser and immediately feeling it was a perfect fit for her voice. “When I first heard the song, I realized, ‘Ah, this is totally my style,’” she said with a laugh. “I felt confident I could pull it off, so I told him right away that I’d do it.”
Wendy added that Jin’s thoughtful hospitality extended even to small details during his solo concert. “At breakfast, they grilled thinly sliced samgyeopsal (pork belly) so perfectly,” she said. “And there was even a selection of Jin Ramen — mild or spicy — that we could choose from freely. That’s when I realized what ‘world-class’ really means!”
Choi Yena, who also worked with Jin, echoed similar sentiments, highlighting his humility and kindness behind the scenes. She described him as someone who never fails to make people around him feel valued and comfortable, no matter the setting.
Fans have been touched by the two artists’ genuine stories, noting how Jin’s warmth continues to leave a lasting impression on everyone he meets. With each new anecdote, the BTS member’s reputation as one of the most considerate idols in the industry only grows stronger.
