K-pop star Jin, who is the eldest BTS member, became the torchbearer of the Olympic flame in Paris, on July 14. Fans had been waiting for the singer since early morning on July 14. Several photos and videos are going viral on social media.

Take a look:

On Thursday, Jin left for France to participate in the torch relay ahead of the Paris Olympics 2024. Meanwhile, Jin was the first band member to join the military service in 2022, and was recently discharged after completing his mandatory training.

The rest of the BTS members including Jungkook, RM, V, Jimin, J-Hope joined him after the premises to welcome him, and RM even played the saxophone to their hit song Dynamite. The band's fandom, who call themselves ARMY, gathered outside the headquarters of the HYBE Corporation or the Big Hit Entertainment Co. Ltd, the entertainment company that manages BTS.

Suga, who couldn't be a part of the discharge ceremony, met Jin, Jungkook, RM, V, Jimin, J-Hope at the celebrations organised by their company. Later, the official account of BTS shared a reunion photo of the band members on June 12.

The Bangtan Boys were seen posing with the peace sign, while sitting on a couch. A white cake and some muffins were kept in front of them, and customised ballons were decorated behind them, that read 'Jin is back'. This picture broke the internet within just few minutes.

Jin also hosted an online session on the Weverse app, in which he thanked all the ARMY members for joining in the celebrations as he said, "Thank you so much to the people and reporters that came and took pretty discharge pictures, and thank you so much to ARMYs that came in front of the company and gave me love because of my discharge. I couldn’t give my proper greetings in case it would get too chaotic but I’m so so thankful to all of you, our ARMY is the best."
