K-Pop galore at 2024 Milan Fashion Week, but BTS’ Jin commands all the attention; ARMY flood streets to greet him

There is a reason he is called WWH (World Wide Handsome) or even the 'Vampire': the eldest member of the global phenomenon group Bangtan Sonyeondan (BTS), Kim Seokjin, looked ethereal when he made his debut appearance at the 2024 Milan Fashion Week. It is well-known that whenever any BTS member is present at an event, their fans, ARMY, ensure the men know they are loved for all their hard work.

So, it was not surprising that when Jin was greeted with cameras flashing in his face by media houses, ARMY—who were holding posters and wearing shades of purple (Borahae, the colour of the group and the fandom given by BTS singer Kim Taehyung)—cheered for the man.

BTS' Jin makes a statement at Milan Fashion Week 2024:

It’s important to note that while many K-pop stars were representing various fashion brands, Jin captivated even local onlookers, who joined fans with their cameras to catch a glimpse of his striking appearance.

This was Jin's first appearance at Milan Fashion Week, and he opted to wear a striking iridescent knitted sweater that combined rich maroon, orange, and purple tones. The shirt had a plunging V-neckline, showing his silver necklaces. To finish the look, Jin paired it with high-waisted brown trousers that matched the earthy colours of his outfit. He added a signature touch with a black Horsebit belt from Gucci, perfectly complemented by his matching black Horsebit loafers. ARMY, who had stood for hours, chanted "Kim Seok-jin" in unison, ensuring everyone recognized the star of the occasion. 

After impressing the fans, the BTS star posed for photos with Hollywood actress Dakota Johnson, Thai actor Gulf Kanawut, and tennis star Jannik Sinner. Jin even became the most mentioned celebrity during Milan Fashion Week on social media.

On the work front:

Jin was discharged from the South Korean military in June 2024 and is gearing up to release his highly anticipated solo album, just like the other members did, by the end of the year. He has kept fans excited by sharing several behind-the-scenes snapshots from the recording booth.
