BTS’ Jin is making a highly anticipated return to the entertainment world, this time as a guest star on Netflix’s upcoming reality show, Kian’s Bizarre B&B. The streaming giant announced the news on Wednesday, revealing that Jin will join the popular webtoon artist and television personality Kian84 in this unique new venture, alongside actress Ji Ye Eun. The show is set to premiere in 2025, and while an exact release date has not yet been confirmed, the announcement has already generated significant excitement among fans.
Kian’s Bizarre B&B follows Kian84, whose real name is Kim Hee Min, as he runs an unconventional guesthouse on the scenic island of Ulleungdo. Known for his work on the hit webtoon Fashion King and his comedic appearances on shows like I Live Alone and Around the World While I Was Born, Kian84 has built a reputation for his offbeat humor and unique perspective. The addition of Jin to the cast promises to bring even more attention to the show, with fans eager to see how the BTS member will fare in this new role.
Netflix shared the news via its official social media accounts, hinting at the quirky dynamics viewers can expect. “When Jin and Ji Ye Eun are the ones serving you, it truly is a bizarre B&B,” the post teased, suggesting that the interactions between the cast members will be a major highlight of the show.
Actress Ji Ye Eun, known for her standout performances on SNL Korea and other variety shows like Running Man and Knowing Bros, is also set to bring her charm and wit to the series. Her inclusion in the cast further elevates the show’s appeal, blending Jin’s global K-pop fame with the established comedic talents of Kian84 and Ji Ye Eun.
Jin’s involvement in Kian’s Bizarre B&B marks another significant step in his post-military career. After completing his mandatory service earlier this year, Jin has wasted no time getting back into the spotlight. He recently launched his own variety show, Run Jin, which is available on the BANGTANTV YouTube channel. The show offers fans a closer look at Jin’s personality and adventures, further solidifying his status as a multifaceted entertainer.
In addition to his work on Run Jin, Jin has been teasing fans with news of an upcoming solo album, set to be released later this year. His participation in Kian’s Bizarre B&B adds another layer to his growing list of projects, demonstrating his versatility and willingness to explore new genres within the entertainment industry.
Netflix’s statement regarding Jin’s participation was cautiously optimistic, emphasizing the need for safety during filming. “It’s true that BTS’s Jin and actress Ji Ye Eun will appear on the Netflix variety show. We cannot confirm filming dates for safety measures. We hope you understand,” the company said, acknowledging the high level of interest surrounding the project.
As fans eagerly await the premiere of Kian’s Bizarre B&B, the buzz around Jin’s television appearances continues to build. His recent teaser for another show, If You Rest, It’s a Relief (Fookda Haeng), has already captured the attention of viewers worldwide. The show, which features BTS’ Jin and his close friend Sandeul from B1A4 in a survival quest on an island, is set to premiere globally on August 19, adding yet another must-watch title to Jin’s growing portfolio.
With multiple projects in the pipeline and his star power only continuing to rise, Jin’s appearance in Kian’s Bizarre B&B is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated events in the entertainment world for 2025. Fans of BTS, Kian84, and Ji Ye Eun alike will no doubt be tuning in to see what this bizarre yet fascinating guesthouse experience has in store.
