Kim Sok Chin

Singer and musician Kim Seok Jin, or simply Jin, is known to the general public since 2013, when the popular South Korean boy band "BTS" was created, known today to all Asian music lovers. Jean is one of the 7 members of the youth group and the oldest among them. His role in the band is not limited to vocals, the guy also writes songs for "BTS" and for his creative achievements was awarded by the President of the Republic of Korea along with other members of the group.

Kim Seok Jin (Kim Sok Chin) was born on December 4, 1992 in Kwacheon, Republic of Korea. Kim's family is small but friendly - his parents and older brother have always supported him in his creative endeavors. As a child, according to his own memories, Jin grew up a quiet, calm and shy boy. He could not tolerate the noise, so he avoided crowded canteens and often dined alone.

If someone had told a schoolboy that he would be a pop aidol, he would have been very surprised. After all, Jin did not think about a creative career, and dreamed of becoming the coolest detective in the country. However, closer to the school graduation he changed his decision regarding the profession and chose a creative direction, enrolling in the University of Konkuk.

In 2017, Kim graduated from university and decided to continue his studies at Hanyang University. This time he consciously retreated from creativity, wanting to have a diverse education.

While a student of Konkuk Gina on the street noticed creative agents and invited to audition for the record company "Big Hit Entertainment". The result was the 21-year-old's debut in the label-created band "Bangtan Boys" ("BTS"), which included his stellar biography.

At first there were 4 people in the boy band, then the line-up expanded to 7 participants. The guys began to perform in the fashionable hip-hop genre and declared themselves the single "No More Dream" - it was in 2013. Debutants immediately won the Best Newcomers of the Year award, winning the Melon Music Awards and Golden Disk Awards.

In 2014-2015, the guys released two EPs, the first full-length album "Dark and Wild", a two-part compilation album "The Most Beautiful Moment in Life" and two albums specifically for the Japanese public "Wake Up" and "Youth".

The real triumph was overtook by the band "BTS" in 2016 with the release of the second full-length studio album "Wings". By this time the band had rebranded the group, changing the logo and full name. Now they've become "Beyond The Scene," which means "young men opening the door and moving on." The abbreviation of the name remained the same - "BTS."

The album "Wings" was literally filled with hits: clips for the songs "Spring Day", "Not Today" and others broke the records of views on "YouTube". Another hit was Gene's single "Awake". He was so fond of music fans that he reached number 17 on the Gaon download chart and number six on the Billboard singles chart.

Thus, the musician once again successfully asserted himself in the author's role. A year earlier, he had written "It's Definitely You" in tandem with a bandmate, "It's Definitely You", which also received a lot of positive reviews.

In 2018, Jin continues to march to success as part of the group "BTS". In May, the band released the album "Love Yourself: Tear", and in August fans already enjoyed the trailer for the new album, the intro for which Jin performed.

October was a truly triumphant year for the band: young people appeared on the cover of Time magazine, performed in Paris in honor of the anniversary of diplomatic relations between France and South Korea, and most importantly - became the owners of the Order of Merit in Culture of the fifth class, receiving the award from the hands of President Moon Jae-in.

Among Kim's creative activities it is worth mentioning his role as the host of various shows. For example, he was a co-host of the Music Bank project. And in early 2017, he became a contestant on the survival reality show "The Law of the Jungle."

In 2018, the musician was included in the list of "Most Preferred Eidols" according to the Gallup Institute, settling on the 11th place.

Kim Seok-jin is the eldest in the group, so friends jokingly call him "mother." He really shows a lot of care towards his colleagues. His friend Min Yonggi, who performs in the band under the pseudonym Suga, even joked that he would marry him if Jin was a girl. Kim loves to cook and often treats everyone with hand-cooked dishes.

And since the guy loves to eat, his wife will be only those who know how to cook, farm and create comfort. At the same time, the girl should be attractive and share his interests. The future father of the family dreams of two children - the eldest daughter and the youngest son. Whether there is in the heart of Idsol who will give him happiness in personal and family life is not yet known.

But other interesting facts of his personal life have been made public. For example, the musician speaks a little Chinese, but English is given to him with difficulty. And the guy is passionate about computer games with Supermario and adores our smaller brothers.

Tall, slender handsome (height 179 cm) - a dream of millions of girls in different parts of the world. At the same time, Jin treats his appearance critically, for example, does not like his image in glasses, because it seems to himself insecure and timid.

In February 2019, BTS attended the 61st Grammy Awards, becoming the first Korean band in the history of the legendary award. Their new studio album, Map of the Soul: Persona, is released in April, and in May the band embarks on a world tour called "Love Yourself: Speak Yourself".
