The tears? Flowing. The feels? Off the charts. The surprise? Absolutely massive.
On 19th April 2025, at Coldplay’s “Music of the Spheres” world tour stop in Goyang, South Korea, BTS’s very own Jin made a surprise appearance – and honestly, no one was emotionally prepared.
The crowd at the Goyang Sports Complex lost it (in the best way) when the “worldwide handsome” himself took to the stage after nearly two and a half years.

Fans had started speculating earlier in the day, after a few sneaky rehearsal clips made their rounds online featuring a very familiar voice.
Still, no one dared believe it fully… until Jin appeared, cool as ever, next to Chris Martin on stage.
The night’s setlist included two emotional collaborations: “My Universe” – the Coldplay x BTS hit that defined an era in 2021 – and Jin’s 2022 solo track “The Astronaut”, which Coldplay helped write and produce.
Seeing Jin perform both live, post-military, with Coldplay by his side again? Magic. Literal magic.
Jin didn’t just sing – he spoke straight to the hearts of ARMY and Coldplayers alike:
“Before I went to the military, my last performance was with Coldplay. Now, my first concert after being discharged is also with Coldplay.”
A moment of full-circle beauty. Cue the screams, sniffles, and soggy lightsticks.
Chris Martin also chimed in with peak emotional energy, joking and gushing in equal measure:
“We’ve missed you, mate. You’ve been off serving, but you still look as handsome as ever. Just look at this beautiful man!”

Even RM (Namjoon) couldn’t keep quiet, dropping a comment on social media about how moved he was.
And ARMY?
They turned into puddles.
One fan summed it up perfectly:
“Seeing Coldplay – a group I grew up with – and Jin, never in my life did I think this kind of moment would happen. I’m crying. I’m so happy I’m alive to see this.”
After 2 years and 6 months away, Jin’s return wasn’t just a performance – it was a healing moment.
A brief reunion that reminded everyone why BTS and Coldplay’s connection goes beyond just music. It’s warmth, it’s sincerity, it’s legacy.
And it’s safe to say: Jin’s back. And he brought the stardust with him.
