On episode 147 of Halmyungsoo, Park Myung Soo shared that BTS' Jin recently texted him after watching Halmyungsoo episode 143.

In the new episode, Park Myung Soo spent a day shopping. While having lunch, Park Myung Soo confessed, "There's a message from Jin. (He said) 'Hyungnim, I'm so disappointed in you...' Jin saw our program and saw that I didn't say that he was the most handsome celebrity that I ever met in person. He's pouty that I didn't say it was him."

In episode 143, Park Myung Soo took the time to answer questions from his fans. One of the questions asked Park Myung Soo, "Who is the most beautiful male and female idol in real life?" to which Park Myung Soo replied, "Among those who I ever met, based on my standard, the most beautiful idol is Winter of aespa. When I saw Winter, her features rarely exist in real life. As for the male idol, I pick Yujin of ZEROBASEONE."

Park Myung Soo immediately took the opportunity to apologize to Jin and shared, "I sent him a long text to apologize, and he responded, 'Hyungnim, I'll go on your program again after I'm discharged from my military service.' I was so grateful."

Park Myung Soo added, "Honestly, Jin is handsome. We couldn't talk about someone who is on a whole other level. Don't be mad (Jin)."

Korean netizens found this interaction wholesome and hilarious. They commented, "Jin is one of the BTS members I like consistently," "I love Jin," "I want to see Jin on Halmyungsoo again," "This is so cute," "Why is Jin being so adorable," "I like hearing about Seokjin like this," "I love how Jin keeps contact with everyone he ever formed a relationship with," "Jin is the real deal," "He's so funny," and "Jin is handsome and so cute all at once."
