Jin is the oldest member of BTS, but there are technically 4 members of the ‘Hyung Line’

There are seven members in this award-winning K-pop group. Together, they’ve performed at the Grammy Awards, the Billboard Music Awards, the MTV Video Music Awards, and earned billions of views on their YouTube videos.

The older members of this K-pop group include rappers J-Hope, Suga, and RM. The oldest of the performers, though, is Mr. Worldwide Handsome Jin, a singer and the “lead visual” of BTS. Even though he’s the oldest member, Jin still has moments of being scared.

He may be the oldest member of this K-pop group, but Jin is still pretty young at heart. Whether he’s goofing off with V and making jokes during a live stream, Jin has a way of sharing a few different sides of himself with fans. During one “summer package,” the members even traveled to Saipan, where Jin had a chance to meet some animals.

Jin was hanging out with one stingray when another one came up behind him. Jin was scared of the tail and he started to scream, turning to RM for help. The other members of this K-pop group started laughing as a response. 

Eventually, Jin had a chance to kiss a stingray, but RM was fearless for the rest of the challenge. At one point, the rapper started making cooing noises at the animal causing some fans to note how he can be fearless as a rapper but still super warm and kind.

RM is the leader of BTS 

He’s fearless when it comes to stingrays, but he’s also a talented rapper and the leader of BTS. As one of the members who is fluent in English, RM is normally the one to answer interview questions while overseas. This performer is one of the masterminds behind BTS’ music, too, with writing credits on songs like “Boy With Luv” and “Intro: Persona.”

Fans can see more of RM and Jin’s experience with the stingrays in the 2018 Summer Package. Music by BTS, including the single “Stay Gold,” “Dynamite,” and Map of the Soul: 7, is available for streaming on platforms like Spotify and Apple Music.
