BTS‘s Jin and J-Hope are trending for the funniest reason!
A solar eclipse happens when the moon passes between the Earth and the sun, casting a shadow that blocks out the light from the sun. The rare event recently took place on April 8, 2024, quickly traction across social media as people witnessed the event (while taking proper safety precautions). However, all K-Pop fans could think of was one particular duo!
J-Hope, known for his sunshine-like personality, represents the sun. Meanwhile, Jin’s song “Moon” solidified his reputation: He is the moon to ARMY’s earth!
That’s why it didn’t take long for “2seok” — the loving nickname for J-Hope and Jin — to quickly trend on Twitter.

…but it’s also a great reminder that the duo returns from the military this year!
Jin is set to finish his service in June while J-Hope will be back in October.
We’re counting down the days — but for now, the solar eclipse will have to do!
