Surprise Appearance by Jin at Coldplay Concert in Korea
Jin of BTS made a surprise appearance at the third night of Coldplay’s concert in Goyang on April 19. The crowd cheered as he walked on stage, joining Chris Martin during a segment where the singer invites fans to perform. Jin held a sign asking to sing “The Astronaut” together, which immediately caught Martin’s attention.
When Chris Martin recognized Jin, he was visibly shocked and dropped to his knees in a warm gesture of welcome. Jin responded with a deep bow. This touching moment between the two artists quickly became a highlight of the evening.
The Astronaut and Jin’s Musical Bond with Coldplay
The song “The Astronaut” has special meaning. Jin released it as his solo debut single in 2022, with Coldplay participating in the songwriting and production. Their collaboration wasn’t new—BTS and Coldplay had previously worked together on the song “My Universe.”
Jin and Coldplay already shared a meaningful performance once before. In 2022, Jin appeared as a guest at Coldplay’s concert in Argentina. At that time too, he performed “The Astronaut” with Chris Martin, showing their strong musical connection on a global stage.

On both occasions, Jin and Chris Martin shared moments of genuine warmth and trust. They held hands, placed arms over each other’s shoulders, and performed in front of massive crowds. These gestures went beyond performance—they revealed the deep friendship between the two artists.
Their comfort on stage and sincere respect for each other felt genuine. Fans were moved by the easy flow of interaction, showing that Jin, Coldplay, and friendship truly came together in harmony.
Coldplay Korean Concert and Eco-Friendly Mission
Coldplay returned to Korea after eight years, planning six large-scale shows. The concerts began on April 16 and continue through April 25. The April 19 performance, featuring Jin, marked the third show in the series. Each concert draws nearly 50,000 people, totaling around 300,000 attendees by the final date.
K-pop group TWICE joins as a special guest for all six nights, performing a 40-minute opening act and later joining Coldplay for “We Pray.” In line with their eco-conscious values, Coldplay encourages the return of LED wristbands distributed to fans. During the April 18 concert, the collection rate reached an impressive 98%, beating Tokyo and Helsinki’s 97% record.
Fans Celebrate Jin, Coldplay, and Lasting Friendship
Videos of Jin and Coldplay singing together were shared on Korean platforms like instiz. Fans reacted with joy and gratitude, praising the uploader and celebrating the moment. Many noted that Jin’s final concert before enlistment and first one after returning both involved Coldplay.
Some fans mentioned that Jin keeps a polaroid of Chris Martin in his phone case like a good luck charm.

These personal touches deepened the sense of a real, lasting friendship between the two artists.
