According to Allkpop, BTS member Jin shared insights into the inspiration behind his first solo album in a cover feature and interview with Vogue Japan.
Jin will double as the cover model for the December issues of Vogue Japan and GQ Japan star in Japan, becoming the first star in Japan to do so. For his Vogue Japan photoshoot, Jin presented sleek fall fashion against a backdrop of a traditional hanbok, blending Eastern and Western influences.
During the interview, Jin was asked about moments when he felt most like himself. He said that making others laugh is when he feels most authentic.”I feel alive when I see someone smile because of me.”
Discussing his current goals as an artist, Jin said his dream is to see ARMY members happy.”As long as they’re happy, I can keep working, even if it exhausts me. I’m currently working on fulfilling that dream.”
Jin’s debut solo album, titled Happy, is set to release on Nov 15.
