'Hug and duck!' BTS Jin cracks up as ARMY bring up Coldplay concert cheating couple in guessing game
BTS member Jin lit up the stage in Anaheim during his solo world tour, RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR. As he does at every stop, he played a game of charades with his fans, known as ARMY. This time, the word was "Coldplay" - and things quickly turned chaotic.
BTS ARMY reenact Coldplay cheating couple
In a video clip shared on X (formerly known as Twitter), the word displayed on the screen was "Coldplay." Rather than simply miming the band's name, ARMY got cheeky and recreated the now-infamous "hug and duck" gesture - a viral reference to the Coldplay concert cheating moment.
At first, Jin appeared visibly confused by the exaggerated physical hints. But as ARMY energetically performed the "hug and duck" move in dramatic fashion, he burst into laughter, realizing the clever nod to the scandal.
At one point, Jin asked, "Is it my bro?" referring to Chris Martin, with ARMY screaming "Yes!" in response. The moment escalated hilariously until Jin finally guessed "Coldplay" correctly, prompting loud cheers for the playful and well-timed clue.

The clip quickly went viral, thanks to ARMY's enthusiasm and Jin's infectious laughter - once again proving how BTS and their fans can turn even a simple game into a legendary moment.
More about Jin's solo tour
The eldest member of the group is currently in the midst of the North American and European legs of his first-ever solo tour, with upcoming shows scheduled in Dallas, Tampa, Newark, London, and Amsterdam.
During his Anaheim concert, the eldest BTS member opened up about missing his fellow bandmates and reflected on what it feels like to perform without them. Admitting he had been nervous ahead of the show, Jin shared candidly, "I came here very worried actually. So I don't have my members with me, first of all. And after doing shows I feel like I wasn't in the best condition."
He went on to explain how the absence of his members affected him emotionally: "Usually the members next to me would say 'Gwenchana' [It's okay]. But then today when I came here, it's like instead of members, you guys hit the spot and you guys are saying it's okay, it's okay to me."
In a heartfelt moment that left fans teary-eyed, he added, "To me, you guys are just as precious as the members." Jin ended his message with a warm and sincere, "Thank you ARMY, I love you ARMY!"

Kristin Cabot Leaves Husband Shocked During His Japan Work Trip With 'Kiss Cam' Row
Last Updated: Privateer Rum CEO Andrew Cabot's wife, Kristin, was seen with Astronomer CEO Andy Byron at a Coldplay concert in Boston. The viral video led to both resigning from their positions. Privateer Rum CEO Andrew Cabot's wife, Kristin, was reportedly caught in a romantic moment with Astronomer CEO Andy Byron at a Coldplay concert in Boston while Andrew was away on a business trip in Japan, sources cited by the New York Post. The video of the moment quickly went viral. 'Andrew was in Asia for a few weeks and returned on Saturday, so he was gone while all this went down," the report quoted the unnamed source as saying. Andrew and his family members were utterly shocked and caught off guard by Kristin's actions, NDTV quoted a report as saying. 'The family is now saying they have been having marriage troubles for several months and were discussing separating, which I find interesting since, as of a month ago, they were saying how in love they are," the source added. Kristin and Andrew tied the knot in 2022 after her previous divorce was finalised. Just five months before the scandal surfaced, the couple had invested in a $2.2 million mansion in Rye, New Hampshire, indicating a seemingly stable relationship. Andrew hails from the esteemed Cabot family, a prominent member of America's upper crust, famously known as the 'Boston Brahmins'. This elite class was dubbed by Oliver Wendell Holmes in his 1861 novel Elsie Venner, likening Boston's high-society families to 'the Brahmin Caste of New England'. Brahmins are the highest priestly caste in India, and Holmes borrowed the term to describe Boston's upper-class, Anglo-Saxon Protestant families, which has stuck since then, NDTV reported. The Viral Video At Coldplay's Boston concert, the camera caught Byron snuggling up behind Cabot at Gillette Stadium, and the moment was broadcast on the Jumbotron. The unexpected exposure sent both into panic mode – Byron ducked down, trying to hide, while Cabot attempted to conceal her face.

In the wake of the controversy, Byron stepped down first, and later, Kristin also resigned from her position on Thursday. view comments First Published: July 25, 2025, 23:35 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Rishabh Pant Cracks 'Engagement' Joke With Yuzvendra Chahal Amid RJ Mahvash Dating Rumours
Ignored Indian cricket team spinner Yuzvendra Chahal was the subject of a hilarious 'engagement' joke from Rishabh Pant amid dating rumours involving RJ Mahvash. Chahal got divorced from Dhanashree Verma earlier this year and there have been a lot of chatter around his rumoured relationship with RJ Mahvesh after both of them were spotted together on several occasions. Archana Puran Singh recently dropped a Behind The Scenes (BTS) vlog from the shoot of Kapil Sharma's show where Pant was seen having fun with Chahal. Pant jokingly put a ring on Chahal's finger while Archana commented, 'Are you now engaged to him?' Rishabh was quick to reply 'Iski toh ho chuki hai pehle (He is already engaged)'. Yuzi clarified and joked "Jaa bhi chuki hai (It is over as well)". It was a reference to his divorce with Dhanashree that was finalised this year. The conversation did not end there as Archana invited Chahal to visit her home in Mumbai but added that he must be too busy to make the journey. However, Pant said - 'He is here all the time!" Chahal was amused with the exchange as he replied - 'Sabko bata de tu (Why don't you just announce it to everyone?)" Rishabh left everyone in splits as he started shouting on the set. Meanwhile, amid the India vs England Test series, a video clip from a Netflix broadcast of a 'Kapil Sharma Show' episode involving Rishabh Pant, Yuzvendra Chahal and Gautam Gambhir is going viral. "In most families there is a jethani who's calling the shots. Who is such a player? Someone who orders everyone, even if they're just taking advantage of their seniority," Kapil Sharma can be seen asking. "Rohit bhai is like that," Rishabh Pant said. "Maine kaha, Rohit ka naam lele, abb toh retire ho gaya (Take Rohit's name, he's retired now)," Gambhir said with a smile on his face.

Mr Andrew, who belongs to an affluent family, was on a work-related trip in Japan when the Coldplay kiss cam video went viral. "Andrew was in Asia for a few weeks and returned on Saturday, so he was gone while all this went down," the report quoted the unnamed source as saying. The outlet highlighted that both Mr Andrew and his relatives were completely blindsided by Kristin's action. "The family is now saying they have been having marriage troubles for several months and were discussing separating, which I find interesting since as of a month ago they were saying how in love they are," the source added. Kristin and Andrew got married in 2022 after her previous divorce was finalised. The couple even purchased a $2.2 million mansion in Rye, New Hampshire, just five months before the scandal broke out, suggesting things were relatively steady between the two.
