The South Korean pop band recently concluded their BTS Permission to Dance on Stage-Seoul concert.

In December last year, Jin along with fellow band members V, RM, Suga and Jimin, had tested positive for coronavirus. They all recovered after spending time in quarantine.

Earlier this month, BTS extended their 'Permission to Dance On Stage' by four shows at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
