Posted by now-topic31,979 pts Thursday, September 29, 2022

Many people know about one of the numerous hobbies of Jin - it's playing tennis. He practices it three times a week and is on a high level of professionalism in this sphere. Since Jin won a BTS tennis match in one of the RUN BTS episodes two years ago, the artist has continued training. Known for being very dedicated and determined, Jin quickly improved his tennis game despite his super busy schedule as a global superstar.

Today, Jin was noticed at the tennis match of the Korea Open 2022. It is a combined ATP Tour and WTA Tour tennis tournament in Seoul. 

Today's match was special because of one of the players - a Norwegian player, Casper Ruud, who is the 2nd best player in the world right now (ATP ranking). Jin attended the match with his tennis coach, and it seems like they are one of the many fans of Casper Ruud.

Jin's unannounced appearance as the VIP guest created a fuss in tennis media. Sportskeeda Tennis even posted an article with a loud headline: 

"He did more for the promotion of tennis than ATP by just showing up to a match"- Tennis reacts to BTS singer Jin attending Casper Ruud's match against Nicolas Jarry at Korea Open.

The commentator of the match addressed Jin as the 'Superstar in the stands' and gave him a deserved compliment: 

"..BTS Jin’s presence which cannot be hidden even if he’s wearing a hat and a mask."





All of the most prominent tennis media outlets posted about Jin's attendance across all social media platforms. For instance, ATP Korean Tennis, TVN Sports, ATP Tour, Tennis TV, Arab Tennis, Tennis Korea 1992, Tennis Channel, Sportskeeda Tennis, TENNIS, etc. Videos of Jin at the tennis match gained over 1M views in just 2 hours, making the tennis fans shocked. They are saying that Jin's presence gave more promotion to the tournament than ATP Tour did!

A few of the world's best tennis players left their comments under the Instagram posts about Jin attending the match. They are such great players as Dominic Thiem and Yuki Bhambri.



And the reports about Jin's surprise attendance trended in the most-viewed articles on Nate as well.

Let's hope Jin went to congratulate Casper Ruud, and they took a picture together!
