BTS' Jin appears to have found his latest catch of the day, but fellow member V was quick to question his fishing credentials. On September 5, Jin shared a series of pictures from what looked like a boat-fishing trip on Instagram, including one where he posed with a sizeable fish. His caption suggested he had landed the impressive catch himself, joking about how his fishing victories often look too unbelievable to be real.
V, however, was not about to let Jin take all the credit. The BTS vocalist dropped a cheeky comment suggesting that Jin had once again simply photographed the boat captain with the fish. The playful accusation quickly turned the post into a mini BTS comedy session.
Rather than doubling down on his fishing skills, Jin appeared to surrender. Responding to V, he admitted that the large flounder in question was not actually his catch. The confession gave fans another reason to laugh, with the exchange highlighting the easygoing teasing that frequently surfaces between the BTS members.
Jin's fishing adventures have become something of a running theme among BTS fans. The singer has previously shared his enthusiasm for fishing, and his latest Instagram update once again put that hobby in the spotlight. This time, though, the size of the fish prompted immediate suspicion from V.
The interaction also comes shortly after Jin had spoken about going fishing during BTS Los Angeles concert celebrations. The group is currently in the city for its ARIRANG world tour, making the timing of his latest fishing post all the more amusing for fans following the members' activities.
Meanwhile, BTS is continuing its ARIRANG world tour with two shows at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on September 5 and 6, local time. The concerts mark the group's North American finale before the tour moves towards South America.
Los Angeles has also embraced BTS fever, with the city observing BTS Week from September 1 to 8. The celebration includes city-wide tributes marking the group's arrival, adding another layer of excitement around the Los Angeles concerts.
As BTS prepares to wrap up the North American leg, Jin has clearly found time for some fishing fun between tour commitments. And judging by V's comment, the members may be keeping a much closer eye on his next "big catch."
