BTS’ Kim Seokjin is making his long-awaited return with a bang! As he celebrates the completion of his military conscription, fans have been treated to a special gift: a teaser for his OST for the highly anticipated tvN drama When The Stars Gossip. This marks the second time Jin has contributed to a drama soundtrack, following his heartwarming performance of “Yours” for Jirisan.
When The Stars Gossip, written by Seo Sook-hyang and directed by Park Shin-woo, stars Lee Min-ho as Gong Ryong and Gong Hyo-jin as Eve Kim, with supporting roles from Han Ji-eun, Oh Jung-se, and Kim Joo-hun. The drama tells a captivating story about a space tourist and an astronaut who cross paths on a space station.
Released by 1theK, the teaser features breathtaking scenes from the drama, perfectly complemented by Jin’s emotive and tender vocals. Fans worldwide have quickly shared their excitement. “OMG OMG OMG HIS VOCALS, I’M SOBBING MY HEART OUT,” one fan exclaimed. Others were equally moved, with one commenting, “The voice feels like being right in the middle of starlight,” and another calling Jin’s voice “a silver voice~♡.”
The anticipation for both the OST and the drama is palpable, with many hoping for success on both fronts. “I’ve only heard the teaser, but it’s so good~ I hope both the OST and the drama do really well!” said one enthusiastic fan.
The full OST will be officially released on 26 January, 2025. Since his discharge from the military in June 2024, Jin has been keeping busy, from the release of his first solo mini-album Happy to now lending his voice to a major drama OST. The excitement around his return continues to grow!
