The BTS Festa 2024 event, which marked the 11th anniversary of K-pop group BTS, started off with a bang, especially highlighting Kim Seokjin's (Jin) first public appearance since completing his mandatory military service. Jin, who was warmly greeted by an enthusiastic BTS Army, appeared in a casual outfit consisting of a striped long-sleeved t-shirt, jeans, and carrying a "hug me!" sign. He revealed in his speech that, at his request, the agency allowed fans to bring cameras to capture the special moment.
