'Running Man' Star Ji Seok Jin Reveals the Reason He is Afraid to Text BTS' Jin
Recently, "Running Man" star, Ji Seok Jin, made a guest appearance on the September 7 episode of KBS2's program "Problem Child in the House," after being invited on the show by his long-time friend and host, Kim Yong Man. During his appearance, Ji Seok Jin talked about his relationship with BTS' oldest member, Jin, who he shares the same name with.
At one point in the show during a quiz, the hosts and Ji Seok Jin found out that BTS uses oxygen respirators once they return backstage after their performances.
