glitteryvOut of all of the BTS members episodes, watching this one always soothes my heart while also leaving me a bit teary-eyed. In bullet point form:
* This was the second episode filmed and the first one with the current set.
* It was the 12th episode aired.
* Filming was done on December 9, 2022. Or, in other terms, 4 days before Jin's enlistment.
* Per Jin's request, the episode didn't air until June 10 2023 as part of the content for the 2023 FESTA
* It's the second longest episode (clocking at 39 minutes and change.)
Now, technically speaking, everyone had already figured out that there was an upcoming episode featuring Jin because of some eagle-eyed ARMY who'd already seen his signed bottle on the shelf behind Jimin during JM's episode. But no one would've ever imagine that it was going to drop during FESTA.
On top of that, Jin literally showed up to eat, drink, and chit-chat with Yoongi. After all, he had nothing to promote at that point. Go figure!
A big reason as to why this is an incredibly comforting episode is because of Yoongi and Jin's relationship. For starters, Jin is the group's eldest and so he is the only hyung Yoongi has in the group. Which is something that Yoongi has mention as part of why their bond works so well. As the 'parents' of BTS, Yoongi and Jin managed to shoulder the responsibility to look after/take care of the younger members back in the pre-debut days onwards. It was so neat to see them talk abt seeking advice and appreciating their mutual support.
There's also a surprise visit from Hobi! And that added an extra layer of awesome in an already fantastic episode.
Other things I liked abt the talk was Jin's adventures in Argentina, technical stuff abt singing live, his outlook/attitude abt life, what being roommates was like, and some candid points abt the 2018 MAMAs. Oh, this was the episode where everyone finds out that Yoongi and Jin literally live 5 minutes away from each other. Eternal roommates indeed, hehehe.
