BTS’ Jin Releases High-Energy Official Trailer For ‘#RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR THE MOVIE’: ‘It’s the Roar of the Crowd That Keeps Me Going’

Jin is all about ARMY in the official trailer for the BTS star’s upcoming concert film, #RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR THE MOVIE. The minute-long look at the documentary chronicling Jin’s debut solo tour without his bandmates opens with an overhead shot of a massive, sold-out stadium show with Jin agonizing over whether he’s up for being the only star on stage.

“Performing without my members?” he says in voiceover as the camera follows the singer to the stage while he does his pre-show vocal warm-ups. “Not in my wildest dreams. I think I was nervous.” The scene then turns to a confident Jin on stage hitting a big red button to kick off the “DOJEON Challenge,” expressing his desire to meet every member of the group’s ARMY fanclub.

With the music swelling, Jin says, “I’m starting another challenge with ARMY,” officially kicking off the tour to the strains of his Billboard Hot 100 No. 53 single “Running Wild” from his 20222 debut solo EP, Happy.

The doc from distributors Trafalgar Releasing and CJ 4DPLEX directed by Junsoo Park will screen in cinemas worldwide on Dec. 27 and 28, with select territories, including France, the Netherlands and the Philippines, opening the film on Jan. 10 and 11; for movie times and a list of participating territories click here.

“Capturing the vibrant energy spanning 10 cities and 20 performances — from South Korea’s Goyang Auxiliary Stadium to Japan, North America, Europe, and back to Incheon — the movie celebrates Jin’s commitment to ARMY with the message: ‘Dojeon! (Challenge!) Until the day I meet every ARMY,’” reads a release. “The most thrilling moments of the tour such as dynamic live performances, heartfelt interviews, behind-the-scenes footage, a mission-based costume change, and other special moments that can only be seen in theaters are now ready to unfold on the big screen.”

With the word “challenge” as the tour’s theme, the release promises that the movie will bring “Jin’s signature energy to the cinemas, featuring him laughing, singing, and completing five energetic missions with ARMY. The cinematic event is packed with exclusive bonuses, including a “cookie video” revealing tour preparations and the interactive ‘Sing Along Game’ mission with a karaoke version of ‘Super Tuna’ designed for fans to connect and sing along.”

Elsewhere in the trailer fans get glimpses of the massive, fire- and confetti-spewing stage, Jin’s costume changes and his dedication to always delivering what ARMY expect from him. “A performance isn’t complete without ARMY,” he says. “It makes me think, ‘This is why I perform.’ Ultimately, it’s the roar of the crowd that keeps me going.”

Jin kicked off his first-ever tour on June 28 at Goyang Auxiliary Stadium in Goyang, South Korea a month after releasing his second solo effort, Echo, which debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 album chart in May.
