HYBE posted a surprise video message from Jin, the oldest member of BTS and the first of the boy band to start his military duty, on Monday.

"I am recording this so that I can say hi to you guys," Jin said in the video. He is clad in a white track suit and sporting long hair, making it evident that the video was shot before he began his service.

"I am shooting for an episode of [SBS entertainment show] 'Running Man,'" he said. "I want to leave videos or other records whenever I can so that I may send my love to you."

The "Running Man" episode featuring Jin aired on Nov. 6.

"I may not be with you now, but I will be back by your side soon so please wait for me," he said.

Jin started his military duty on Dec. 13. He is set to finish on June 12, 2024.
