In their 2018 movie Burn the Stage: The Movie, Jin once again proved that the group ensures that it remains humble. During the film, Jin explained that being too proud will not amount to anything and that it is best to stay grateful for everything.

I want to talk about this scene as well. I noticed the trans was quite rough but I didn't really pay attention at that time since I understood what he was saying.

7. “I like to go with the flow.”

Not everyone knows what the future holds for them, and a quote from Jin in Rolling Stones perfectly fitted that mentality. Rather than focusing too much on what to do, sometimes it’s easier to go with the flow and see where life takes you.
