BTS member Jin gave a humorous answer when asked about what it’s like to live as the so-called “number one in looks.”
On the July 20 episode of JTBC’s “Please Take Care of My Refrigerator,” Jin appeared as a guest alongside comedian Jo Se-ho, who is enjoying newlywed life. The hosts introduced Jin with his popular nickname, “Worldwide Handsome,” noting that he supposedly has an ideally proportioned unaltered face from an artistic perspective, as well as being rated the most scientifically attractive Asian male by overseas plastic surgeons.
When asked how it feels to live up to that reputation, Jo joked, “Don’t you see Jin in the mirror when you go to the bathroom in the morning?”
Jin played along, saying, “After I shower in the morning, I can’t leave the bathroom for three hours. How can I when a sculpture-like face is staring back at me in the mirror?” He added that even if he steps away from the mirror, he somehow finds himself drawn back toward it.

Chef Yoon Nam-no from “Culinary Class Wars,” a competing chef on the show, chimed in with admiration: “I want to live as Jin for just three days.”
Host Kim Sung-joo responded to Jin’s cheeky comments by saying, “He’s heard it so often, even waving it off must feel exhausting now.”
Jin concluded on a more sincere note, saying, “At first, I was embarrassed, but everyone kept saying it, so I started to enjoy it. It feels good to be complimented.”
