BTS member Jin (진) is known for his joyful personality, so it’s rare to see him nervous, but that’s exactly how he felt during his appearance on Vanity Fair’s Lie Detector Test on YouTube. Like many stars before him, he was asked a series of questions to answer truthfully. If any physiological changes were detected, the polygraph would indicate that he might not be telling the truth.

Fans said they felt nervous for him, too, but were equally entertained by the content. That said, we also learned quite a few things about the idol. Here are some of our favourite moments from the episode:

1. He was scammed by video game sellers

Jin considers himself someone who isn’t easily fooled. However, when it comes to video games, he admits he can be swayed by an enticing offer. The singer revealed that he had been scammed by sellers who promised valuable in-game items, but sadly took his money and left him empty-handed.

2. He misses Jungkook the most out of all his members

As the segment was filmed some time ago, the interviewer asked Jin which of his BTS bandmates, who were still completing their military service at the time, he missed the most. Initially, he replied that he missed all of them, but when the machine detected deception, he admitted he missed the maknae, Jungkook, the most.

3. He thinks his single “Super Tuna” is cheesy

Making music is all about having fun, so there’s absolutely nothing wrong with an artist releasing a silly song every now and then. Jin released “Super Tuna” back in 2024 and admitted he finds the song cheesy, so much so that he hoped people wouldn’t take it too seriously. In fact, he even asked fans not to start a dance challenge to the single.

4. He has no desire to become an actor

Despite holding a degree in acting, Jin has no desire to pursue a career in it. However, the polygraph detected deception, though the idol insisted he was telling the truth, even if offered a role in a Bong Joon Ho (봉준호) film. He went on to explain that the reason he doesn’t want to become an actor is that it requires a great deal of effort and feels like an intimidating challenge to take on. Still, fans remain hopeful that they’d get to see Jin show off his acting chops one day.

5. He hasn’t replied to his friends’ messages

It’s not particularly surprising when an idol hasn’t had much time to reply to messages from friends and family. However, Jin admitted he still hasn’t responded to his friends back home, as he feels the conversations don’t offer him anything meaningful. When asked to elaborate, he explained that they mainly talk about video games he doesn’t play, so he has nothing to contribute to the discussion.

It’s important to note that this particular lie detector test isn’t entirely reliable, as the examinee can influence the results by controlling their physiological responses. That said, when the examinee is under significant stress, the results may also be inaccurate, so it’s best not to take Jin’s answers too seriously.
