The Pied Piper Effect: Jin's Arrival at Bosung High School
BTS member Jin recently demonstrated his enduring popularity by attracting a massive crowd during a visit to his alma mater. On the 8th, Jin posted a selfie on his social media account wearing a name tag that read 'Kim Seokjin', verifying his visit to Bosung High School in Songpa-gu, Seoul.
The purpose of Jin's visit was reportedly to film content for a personal project. As news of his presence spread, the school grounds quickly filled with excited students eager to catch a glimpse of the K-pop star.
Student Reaction: A 'Train to Busan' Scene
The reaction to Jin's appearance was nothing short of spectacular. A short video that spread across online platforms captured male students flocking to see Jin.
