BTS member Jin was late in welcoming fellow bandmates RM and V, who returned to civilian life after wrapping up their military service

With the return of Kim Namjoon (RM) and Kim Taehyung (V) on June 10, 2025, the beloved “Kim line” of BTS is finally back together. Their discharge marked a major milestone not just for the group, but for ARMYs who’ve waited patiently through their 18-month enlistment. To celebrate the occasion, a surprise visit from BTS’ eldest member, Jin, turned the moment into an unforgettable and hilarious reunion.

Soon after RM and V stepped into HYBE’s headquarters and began a livestream, Jin made his entrance. Standing off to the side waiting to be noticed, he brought instant laughter once acknowledged by his younger members. The room quickly filled with their signature energy and playful banter. Jin revealed that he’d once wrapped himself up in a ribbon as a “present” for the two, a callback to his signature humor that had everyone grinning.

As the conversation rolled on, Jin couldn’t help but notice how muscular both Namjoon and Taehyung had become. Jokingly, he wondered if they might overpower him in a fight now. V, without hesitation, agreed, cheekily affirming he wouldn’t lose. The playful tension took a twist when V suddenly brought up his time in the SDT (Special Duty Team), hinting at how intense and mentally challenging it was. The unexpected seriousness in his tone made Jin immediately shift gears, raising his hands in mock surrender and saying, “Let’s just live peacefully.”

Their humorous exchange ended with the three shaking hands in a mock truce, as RM giggled in the background, amused by how effortlessly their old dynamic had returned—teasing, warmth, and all.

While Jin gears up for his solo concerts later this month, he seemed visibly relieved as RM and V promised to share the burden with him and J-Hope, now that they’re finally home. With Jimin and Jungkook discharged the very next day, and SUGA set to complete his alternative service on June 21, BTS’ full reunion is just around the corner. For fans, it’s the long-awaited beginning of a new chapter—with laughter, love, and music ready to take center stage once again.
