In an old post on the BTS blog written by Jin in 2014, it was revealed that he once asked for financial assistance from his family for a sad reason. What?
Even though BTS (Bangtan Boys) are millionaire world stars now, they came from humble beginnings. An old post on their blog written by Jin in 2014 was recently revealed and caught the attention of many people.
Back in the 2014 New Year, Jin wanted to cook rice cake soup (ddeok-guk) for BTS members according to New Year's traditions. The owner of the name Kim Seokjin carefully wrote recipes for fans, as well as wrote a narrative for the blog.
Jin began by listing the ingredients used, "2014 rice cake soup. First, the ingredients are a bag of frozen dumplings, a bag of flat rice cakes, a bag of cylindrical rice cakes, and 3 bags of broth. As well as other seasonings." But the next sentence is very sad, "This year, we have no money, so no meat."

After finishing the recipe, Jin continued to thank his brother for buying him the ingredients. Jin wrote, "Thanks to the members who ate it well, and also to be honest, there were ingredients that I forgot to get so half of it was bought with hyung's money. The expenditure on food for 7 people was quite large. Just, to tell you, if hyung reads this. , next time we say we're making something, please buy materials for us too haha… kidding! "
Jin ended the post by thanking his mother for sponsoring items, including pots, spoons, plates, cutlery, salt and honey. He also apologized for ransacking his own home and made sure to say that he loved his mother.
Meanwhile, Jin recently celebrated his 28th birthday (internationally) on December 4. For his birthday this time, Jin released his new solo song entitled “Abyss” two hours before midnight. The song credits list BUMZU, RM (Rap Monster), Pdogg and Jin himself as producers.
In other news, BTS has just comeback releasing a special album "BE" with the title song "Life Goes On". A unique alternative hip-hop genre with meaningful messages in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, this song has topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart followed by "Dynamite" in third place.
