Ahead of the Paris Olympics 2024, BTS Jin was selected as a torchbearer for the prestigious event. He made history by carrying the Olympic flame in Paris just weeks before the Summer Olympics. Jin carried the torch at the iconic Louvre Museum, representing the Republic of Korea. Videos from this historic moment have spread rapidly across social media platforms, showcasing Jin’s proud achievement.

Reports reveal that BTS Jin departed for Paris from Seoul on July 11. The Olympic flame, which was first lit in Olympia, Greece, on April 16, 2024, is expected to reach Paris by July 26 for the grand opening of the Olympics. The torch relay will involve approximately 10,000 torchbearers, including Jin, covering 400 cities across France and several overseas regions.

Jin’s Journey and the Torch Relay

The Olympic torch relay is a time-honored tradition that has seen many notable figures in the past. In the 1996 Atlanta Games, Muhammad Ali famously carried the torch, while David Beckham had the honor at the 2012 London Games. BTS Jin’s participation on Bastille Day, the French National Day, adds a significant cultural touch to his role as a torchbearer.

The videos of Jin carrying the torch have been met with widespread admiration from fans around the world. One fan expressed their excitement, saying, “Can’t wait to watch my favorite sports! Proud of Jin for helping kick off the Summer Olympics.” Another fan commented, “We are so extremely proud of Kim Seokjin… please congratulate him on successfully completing his role as Olympic Games Torchbearer…the torch burned brightly for him!” A third fan added, “SO PROUD OF YOU JIN…Thank you for your hard work.”

Jin’s Military Discharge and Upcoming Projects

In addition to his role as an Olympic torchbearer, Jin has recently been discharged from his mandatory military duty. Fans are eagerly awaiting his return to the entertainment scene, as he is set to release a solo album and star in a variety show later this year. His involvement in these projects is expected to showcase his versatility and talent beyond his contributions to BTS.

The journey of the Olympic flame from Greece to Paris marks a significant prelude to the Summer Olympics. The torch relay, which spans several months, symbolizes peace, unity, and the enduring spirit of the Olympic Games. Jin’s participation in this historic event not only highlights his global influence but also emphasizes the cultural exchange that the Olympics promote.
