Jin of the group BTS has revealed that he has been a victim of fraud.

On the 11th, a video titled ‘BTS Jin Takes a Lie Detector Test’ was posted on the YouTube channel ‘Vanity Fair’.

In the video, Jin expressed his nervousness before the lie detector interview, saying, “Everyone is serious. This is my first time filming in such a heavy atmosphere, so I’m nervous.”

He continued by saying that he received love calls from various agencies before his debut, but he thought they were all scams, stating, “I don’t trust people easily. Because I don’t trust people, I don’t get fooled easily.”

However, he mentioned that he had an experience of being scammed while playing a game. He said, “I paid money to purchase an item, but the other person said, ‘I will just take the money and run,’ and I fell for it.” This confession was confirmed as true by the lie detector results.

On the other hand, he also shared an experience where someone misunderstood him as a scammer, saying, “I lost my phone and introduced myself to someone, but they hung up saying, ‘This is not the right number.’” However, Jin added, “I don’t usually lose my belongings.”

Meanwhile, Jin released his solo album ‘Echo’ in May. This album achieved its highest ranking of 3rd on the US Billboard main album chart, ‘Billboard 200’.
