It was all due to the fact that the 29-year-old idol suffered an accident before the concerts, which left him with a serious injury to his index finger, and underwent surgery. After this, his motor ability was reduced and he was unable to choreograph the songs on stage as he expected.
During the last of the 4 concerts, Jin, who had been singing from the chair while the rest of his teammates were dancing on stage, gave a short final speech in which he apologized to both his teammates and the audience for the situation.
“I was like a burden to the team. The seven of us move as a unit and dance as a unit, but as you know, it wasn’t supposed to happen, but I got injured“, Jin said.
After Jin said those words, Taehyung, his BTS member, who was listening to him, got up and approached him to complain about his comment showing his disagreement.
“You’re not a burden, okay?” V reiterated.
