Real-Life Ryu Sun Jae: BTS’s Jin Is Serving K-Drama Male Lead Vibes
While BTS‘s Jin might not have any plans to pursue an acting career, he stays giving K-Drama male lead vibes!
On July 8, Jin was spotted at his Alma Mater, Posung High School to film YouTube content. Dressed in the school uniform and carrying a yellow umbrella, someone else came to mind…
ARMYs pointed out that Jin looked a lot like actor Seo Ji Hoon in Seasons of Blossom. Coincidentally, Seo Ji Hoon also portrays Jin’s character in the BTS Universe K-Drama Begins ≠ Youth.

Additionally, many felt like he looked just like Ryu Sun Jae (also romanized Ryu Seon Jae), the male lead of the hit K-Drama Lovely Runner (also known as Run Away With Sun-Jae On Piggyback), portrayed by actor Byeon Woo Seok.
Fans pointed out the resemblance between Jin and Sun Jae. There are many moments in which they share a resemblance, from Jin’s old school photo to their performance photos.

Ever since Lovely Runner aired, ARMYs couldn’t help but see Jin in Sun Jae. For instance, both are now famous for iconic flying hand kisses.
