The South Korean boy band BTS' eldest member Jin, aka Kim Seok-jin, underwent a finger surgery earlier this year. Due to the surgery, the singer missed out on several opportunities, including BTS' Permission To Dance On Stage Las Vegas concert. While he was a part of the concert, he could not stay on the stage for long. The singer also did not perform at Grammys 2022 and rather played the piano during BTS' performance. While it has been almost two months since Jin's surgery, his finger is now seemingly out of the casting.

Taking to his Instagram handle, BTS' Jin gave a sneak peek into his cast-free hand. In the photos, the BTS member could be seen sitting on a bench filled with stuffed Pikachu toys from Pokemon. He also held a Pokeball in his hand while the cartoon's paintings were all over a wall in the background. Jin donned a blue and white coloured t-shirt and shorts and also covered his face with a mask. His hands could be seen cast-free in all pictures. As the singer shared the photo, his fellow bandmate J-Hope commented, "going around alone doing cute stuff by yourself," and added a fire emoji.

As per a report by Soompi, Jin underwent surgery on March 18 after he was left injured during his daily activities. The surgery went well and Jin was made to wear a cast till his figure was recovered. BTS' management company Bighit Music released a statement about the same in March.
