During Coldplay’s recent show in Bangkok, Thailand, Chris surprised the crowd by singing Jin’s “The Astronaut” as an outro for their hit song “Fix You.” Chris and his son collaborated with Jin to release “The Astronaut” as a gift to ARMYs before the BTS member’s enlistment. Fans were so excited to hear Chris sing the song during the concert.

According to a fan, “The Astronaut” was not originally on the setlist. So, it was a total surprise to concert-goers!

Coldplay also frequently features the Jin-created astronaut character, Wootteo, during performances. Chris wears a Wootteo button or patch on his jacket, and the band has a plushie on stage.
Chris Martin has a different type of Wootteo patch on his jacket – looks like Wootteo is in a spaceship – ready to fly back to earth 😭😭😭#TheAstronaut #Jin #JINxColdplay #진 #ColdplayBangkok @coldplay pic.twitter.com/Szha2ZG0SA

Before Jin enlisted, he was a featured guest during one of Coldplay’s Argentina shows. There, he performed “The Astronaut” for the first time, along with Chris.
