Comedian and television personality Kim Sook recently shared heartfelt praise for BTS' Jimin and Jin. She talked about them during a candid conversation on a podcast hosted by Vivo TV. As a veteran figure in the South Korean entertainment industry, her heartfelt remarks have struck a chord with fans. Jimin's preparation and professionalism lauded During the podcast episode released on June 4, 2025, Kim Sook reflected on her experience working with Jimin during his 2023 appearance on Beat Coin. It is a KBS variety show that ran between July 2022 and January 2024. The show was known for its coin-flip-based format that decided the fate of each segment, resulting in spontaneous and hilarious moments. Kim Sook emphasized how moved she was by Jimin's approach behind the scenes. Unlike many celebrity guests who simply show up and follow instructions, Jimin took his participation seriously. He prepared extensively before filming. 'Jimin prepared for everything he could for the show,' she shared. 'That's why they're so successful. They work so hard. I'll continue to cheer for them from afar.' Jimin's appearance on Beat Coin (episode 30, aired March 30, 2023) was memorable for both viewers and cast. Jimin's warmth, flexibility, and humor stood out, creating buzz online and among the show's regular crew.

She noted how Jin's youthful energy, confidence, and comedic timing brought a fresh atmosphere to the show. She mentioned that watching Jin's performance made her rethink what it means to be a variety host. It's not just about appearances but about showing who you are, something Jin did effortlessly.

It's not just talent or popularity, but a grounded attitude, respect for others, and a relentless commitment to giving their best in every setting.

Tom Cruise x BTS' Jin collab on Run Jin' sparks backlash over Scientology concerns, ARMYs say, 'Begging HYBE to...'
BTS' Jin hasn't had a moment to breathe since his military discharge. From charming fans on Run Jin to causing chaos on Kian's Bizarre B&B and Screwballs, he's been popping up on every variety show worth mentioning. He has also released two albums—Happy and Echo—since his discharge, and the promotional campaigns have been nothing short of a dreamy experience for fans. Just when we thought we'd seen it all, Jin's next guest might be his most unexpected yet: Hollywood's action hero, Tom Cruise. As part of the Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning promo tour in South Korea, Cruise is set to appear on Run Jin. A recently released teaser shows Jin tackling a high-stakes 'mission,' ending with a warm hug that fans suspect is with Cruise himself. While the team-up is definitely one for the history books, not all ARMYs are thrilled about the collaboration. Run Jin gets Tom Cruise as its first Hollywood guest RUN JIN WITH TOM CRUISE NEXT TUESDAY Run Jin follows the same unpredictable and often hilarious formula of BTS' pre-military variety show, Run BTS. Only this time, it's focused entirely on Jin. The series, which kicked off after Jin's return from military service, invites surprise celebrity guests to take on weird and wild missions with the BTS vocalist. Hollywood's new favourite promo stop? K-pop Tom Cruise's team-up with Jin is just the latest example of Hollywood finally recognising the potential of the Korean market. From Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman doing promotions for Deadpool & Wolverine in Korea, to Robert Pattinson's surprise stint on a Korean variety show while promoting Mickey 17, South Korea has become the global hotspot for promotional tours. And, given Korean stars' huge global fan following, it's understandable to see why. Tom Cruise's Scientology connection resurfaces Amid the news of Cruise's participation in Run Jin, his long-standing, high-profile ties to the Church of Scientology are once again under scrutiny. The Hollywood star has been one of the church's most prominent members for decades, and his affiliation has often sparked controversy. His divorce from Katie Holmes in 2012 was widely speculated to be influenced by Scientology, especially after Holmes sought sole custody of their daughter Suri. More recently, Suri dropped Cruise's last name altogether and now goes by Suri Noelle, a move many see as another quiet break from her father's world. ARMYs raise concerns about the collab While many ARMYs are excited to see Jin back in action with a global star, not everyone is celebrating the collab. Fans have voiced discomfort over Cruise's involvement, pointing to his religious affiliations and the problematic allegations tied to Scientology. One user pointed out, "Everyone knows that Tom Cruise is into Scientology and tbh maybe they should stop collabing with weirdos." Everyone knows that tom cruise is into scientology and tbh maybe they should stop collabing with weirdos Another concerned fan wrote, "There's no need to celebrate Tom Cruise is a literal scientologist cult member... begging hybe to do SOME kind of research before letting him go on Jin's show." there's no need to celebrate tom cruise is a literal scientologist cult member... begging hybe to do SOME kind of research before letting a literal lunatic go on jin's show "I am deeply uncomfortable about Tom Cruise being on Run Jin bc this is almost definitely a bid to try and introduce Scientology to armys, like that man did not ask to be on the show for any other reason," wrote a third user. i am deeply uncomfortable about tom cruise being on run jin bc this is almost definitely a bid to try and introduce scientology to armys like that man did not ask to be on the show for any other reason "Tom Cruise is a very bad man involved with very bad people and its actually a bit upsetting that he is going to be involved with them like this. The Run Jin team probably doesn't even know all this but... yeah idk i'm so disturbed by this," wrote a fourth fan. tom cruise is a very bad man 😭😭😭 involved with very bad people and its actually a bit upsetting that he is going to be involved with them like this. the run jin team probably doesn't even know all this but... yeah idk i'm so disturbed by this.
