BTS member Jin is ready to run again with fans. He will hold his encore fan concert, #RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR_ENCORE, on October 31 and November 1 at Incheon Munhak Stadium.
"I hope this becomes a happy memory for everyone who joins," Jin said with a smile. "This concert started simply because I missed ARMY. I'm more excited than nervous."
A Larger Stage, Closer Connection
The encore show will expand on his June performance in Goyang. "I wanted a stage where I can feel even closer to the audience," he shared. "I've also reworked the medley setlist and added songs I haven't performed in a long time. I'm curious if ARMY still remembers them."
He hinted at surprises, saying, "There will be special stage effects that you can only see this time, so please look forward to it."
What He Learned From Touring the World
Jin reflected on his previous #RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR, which began in June and spanned 18 shows across nine cities including Japan, the U.S., and Europe. "It was my first solo fan-con tour, so it was a bit of a burden to lead everything on my own," he admitted. "But ARMY's cheers gave me strength and confidence. I learned how to control my stamina and stay steady through each performance."
Anticipation and Fan Love
When asked what he feels a week before the concert, Jin said, "I just really miss ARMY. This whole encore came from the desire to meet them again. I'm preparing with all my heart. It's a mix of excitement and nervousness, but mostly I'm thrilled to see everyone again."
He also recalled a fun fan interaction: "There was a segment where fans sang and I guessed the song titles. Some said they weren't good at it, but to me, everyone did great. I'm really looking forward to that moment again."
His Message to Fans
"This encore concert is all about sharing every moment with ARMY," Jin emphasized. "Please enjoy it from start to finish and bring your energy. The fans' voices complete the performance. When you look back, I hope Run Seokjin remains in your memory as a happy, joyful time. I'll do my best to make that happen."
With a laugh, he added one final tip: "Run Seokjin is best enjoyed while running! So make sure you come with enough stamina to jump and dance with me."
