The friendship between Chris Martin and Jin continues to be a strong one. The Coldplay singer has just revealed how the BTS member serves as an inspiration in his life.

Chris Martin Opens Up About His Friendship With BTS’ Jin

The official Coldplay Twitter account recently shared a clip of Chris Martin talking about working with Jin. The clip, which is from the film “Coldplay – Music Of The Spheres: Live at River Plate”, features the singer admitting he just loves Jin.

“When we were planning the Buenos Aires shows, it just happened to coincide with Jin having to go into the army in South Korea,” Martin said. “We did it because I really love that guy, the way he moves forward without hesitation when he thinks it’s right.”

“It’s inspiring in my life,” he added. “I love that man. I love the stuff, the story of it, the weirdness of that relationship and how it’s become so natural.”

“It sort of inspires me across my life to lean into something that might be unusual if it feels right,” Martin continued.

The friendship between Jin and Chris Martin started when BTS and Coldplay collaborated on the song “My Universe” in 2021. Martin and his band also co-wrote Jin’s single “The Astronaut” which was released before the BTS member enlisted for military service.

Coldplay gave Kim Seokjin the chance to perform “The Astronaut” live during one of their concerts. Jin appeared as a special guest during the group’s concert at the Estadio River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The concert also coincided with the single’s release date and the performance was the first time fans got to hear the song live.

Kim Seokjin enlisted for mandatory military service on December 13, 2022. He will serve as an active-duty soldier for 18 months and will be discharged on June 12, 2024. “Coldplay – Music of the Spheres: Live at River Plate” was released on April 19, 2023.
