Fans have recently voiced frustration at BIGHIT MUSIC for the treatment of BTS’s Jin.
In the recent clip of Jin giving a tour of HYBE for Aiba, fans noticed a certain poster hanging on the wall.

Turns out, it was a poster that was from his album, The Astronaut, which was released in 2022 before enlisting in the military.

However, fans criticized the company for its lack of effort.
When i catch @HYBEOFFICIALtwt and @BIGHIT_MUSIC…. fucking hags couldn’t hang proper poster for jin there. All members have canvas for their albums, big ass posters, even led lights on wall for themselves and here they put tiny poster for jin lol https://t.co/8T6XpHVsfd

Fans were devastated to find out that filming was on October 25 and Jin’s drawing of the album was done on October 29.

Jin also posted a message on Weverse, revealing that he had drawn the Happy album cover himself.
Fans expressed immense disappointment and wished for better treatment for Jin.
so much for being the “company’s favorite” huh. the TA poster seemed like an afterthought too, just plastered there before the shoot https://t.co/lY8fcdKJdR

It looks like Jin is pretty much a separate from @BIGHIT_MUSIC JinHit entity now. So embarrassing to see that he had to have a poster slapped on the wall in a hurry. https://t.co/XMib7EdmhN
