BTS' Jin gives hilarious spin to Coldplay's 'kiss cam' scandal on stage, leaves internet in disbelief: ‘Even they know….
As the word 'Coldplay' appeared on the screen, the crowd responded with exaggerated gestures mimicking the now-infamous couple from a recent Coldplay show — the ones who were seen hugging, then awkwardly ducked when the kiss cam zoomed in.
At first, Jin looked puzzled by the audience's actions. Then, the realisation hit. Laughing, he played along and asked, 'Is it my bro?' - a nod to Chris Martin, Coldplay's frontman and Jin's longtime friend. The two have shared the stage before, most recently in Seoul this April.
As fans kept reenacting the awkward duck, Jin joined in, dramatically imitating the moment himself. It took less than a minute for the internet to explode.
'The ARMY who made this action for him to mimic OMG,' one fan wrote. Another joked, 'Biggest boyband in the world knows you're a cheater... legacy unlocked.' Social media lit up with chaotic reactions: 'WHO SHOWED IT TO HIM?'
The spontaneous bit was not just funny, it reminded fans of Jin's reputation for staying connected to online trends, no matter how messy.
The original drama took place at a Coldplay concert in Massachusetts earlier last week. During the show, the camera cut to a couple in the crowd. They embraced for a moment, then recoiled, ducking and hiding their faces.
From the stage, Martin tried to lighten the moment: 'Either they're having an affair or they're very shy.' But fans quickly put two and two together. Online sleuths identified the couple as Andy Byron, CEO of Astronomer, and Kristin Cabot, the company's head of HR. Both are reportedly married - but not to each other. Neither has commented publicly, but the body language said plenty.
For fans, watching Jin reference the scandal in real time felt surreal. It was chaotic, hilarious, and classic Jin - proof that even global icons keep tabs on what is going down online.
He mimicked the viral Coldplay kiss-cam cheating moment during a game of charades with fans.
At a recent show, a couple caught on Coldplay's kiss cam ducked and hid their faces, sparking affair rumours.
Reportedly, they were Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot, both married, but not to each other.

RM and SUGA leave South Korea post stylist Kimvenchy's wedding, BTS to finally unite as a full group in USA
BTS members RM and SUGA were snapped at the Incheon International Airport, leaving for Los Angeles once again. Following the stars' departure a couple of weeks ago, it was reported that the group would not return to their homeland of South Korea for at least 2 months, planning a widespread song camp across the USA. Paparazzi shot the two speeding alongside their staff and bodyguards at the airport, gearing up to reunite with the rest of the members in LA. BTS eyes a full group reunion in the USA According to a video report from RNX TV, RM and SUGA were spotted in casual, laid-back outfits, sporting baseball caps of the LA Dodgers, which the two seemingly bought on a shopping spree alongside member Jimin last week. Interestingly, the Haegeum rapper is said to have recently invested in the Major League Baseball team, The Athletics, with Korean legend Park Chan Ho. Covering their faces with a mask, the two meant business maneuvring through the crowded airport. A mostly private outing, they were fortunately not mobbed by too many fans, unlike previous appearances, and only subjected to a few camera flashes. The older rapper has not interacted with the media following his e-scooter DUI issue last year and has been keeping it lowkey. The two were returning after attending their dear stylist Kimvenchy, aka Kim Young Jin's wedding to girlfriend Lee Ha Jeong, where the leader of BTS stood as an MC. They were also accompanied by fellow member J-Hope, who departed one day ago to catch up with Jimin, V, and Jungkook, who are known to be staying at a remote location in Los Angeles. With Jin conducting his day 2 of solo concert in Dallas, Texas today, the group is all set to reunite on foreign land, in preparation for their previously confirmed spring 2026 album release. The oldest member is all set to wrap his solo Run Seokjin Ep tour in August, following upcoming shows in Florida, New Jersey, London, and Amsterdam, with the last show on the 10th of the month.
