BTS’s Jin made a charismatic return to tvN’s Handsome Guys in Episode 23, aired on May 15, bringing warmth, wit, and a touch of BTS flair to the popular food-hunting variety show.
Joined by cast regulars Cha Tae-hyun, Kim Dong-hyun, Lee Yi-kyung, Shin Seung-ho, and Oh Sang-wook, Jin joined a culinary mission through Seoul’s Hannam-dong, offering meal recommendations and team chemistry that delighted both the cast and viewers.
A longtime friend of the show, Jin called the Handsomez crew “like watching my own team,” before playfully suggesting BTS members who would suit the program’s energetic and food-loving style. “Jungkook would be a great fit—he really loves to eat,” Jin said, drawing enthusiastic reactions from Shin Seung-ho and Oh Sang-wook, both famed for their appetites. He added, “V would match the team’s vibe really well.”
Oh Sang-wook jokingly tried to pull rank: “If they’re younger than me, they should come right away.” But Jin quickly shut that down with a sharp smile, replying, “Fans are scary. Even I don’t speak carelessly to Jungkook.” Oh Sang-wook, born in 1996, promptly switched his tune, suggesting, “Should I send them a video message? We can follow them abroad if needed,” leaving the set in stitches.
As fans revel in Jin’s playful charm and genuine camaraderie with the Handsome Guys cast, speculation is rising: could V and Jungkook actually make a guest appearance? With Jin setting the stage—and Oh Sang-wook ready to fly overseas if needed—the idea no longer feels out of reach.
