Over the last couple days, "Dynamite Kiss," a new SBS drama has received a lot of attention from social media users who have been commenting about how a supporting actor in the show bears a strong resemblance to Jin from BTS.

Fans are now sharing their opinions about the actor's resemblance to Jin by making comments and having conversations on many K-drama- and ARMY-related online forums.
According to Koreaboo, the video shows the actor in a casual setting for a brief sequence, which many commenters noted had visuals very similar to that of the global K-pop star.
The outlet noted that fans initially shared the clip in light-hearted amusement before reactions became increasingly polarized.

As one user put it, "If you really think they look alike, I recommend getting LASIK surgery."
The report added that other fans believed the resemblance claims might have originated with broad generalizations of Asian appearances.

Another commenter said, "I feel like foreigners tend to think all Asians have the same face.."
Despite these criticisms, others embraced the comparison more positively.
The comment read, "Meanwhile, the official Netflix Philippines account commented on the video, agreeing that they looked alike!"
Koreaboo also pointed out that the actor in question is Kim Mu Jun, who plays Kim Sunwoo in "Dynamite Kiss." His character in the drama is said to be a single father operating a baby photo studio and a longtime friend of its female lead.
Though he is not the main character, his unexpected moment of spotlight has sparked notable attention as viewers continued to debate his resemblance to Jin.
The viral conversation comes amid a backdrop where K-pop idol lookalike actors often go viral online, sometimes hailing Internet acclaim while also attracting sharp criticism.
In this case, the debate on Kim Mu Jun reflects the ongoing sensitivity of fan communities to comparisons with universally recognized stars like Jin, who has consistently been one of BTS's most recognizable members.
As "Dynamite Kiss" goes on air, audiences are yet to find out how Kim Mu Jun's sudden recognition through the viral clip may impact his further screen work or audience reception.
The debate, however, underscores the strong reactions that surface whenever an actor is perceived to resemble one of the world's most influential K-pop idols.
In a separate report to Hankyung, actor Kim Mu Jun firmly denied allegations that he was romantically linked to Japanese actress Mei Nagano and actor Kei Tanaka, following a Shūkan Bunshun article claiming that Nagano and the married Tanaka were photographed in intimate situations, which created a broader scandal involving Kim.
Kim's agency, Nine Ato Entertainment, clarified on April 23 that "Kim Mu Jun and Mei Nagano are simply colleagues," stressing that the two maintained only a professional relationship while working together on TBS's "Caster."
The rumors quickly fueled controversy in both Korea and Japan, where Tanaka's marital status intensified public backlash. Despite the circulation of these accusations, Kim continues his work, hoping—along with his agency—to move past the speculation that has overshadowed his fast-rising acting career since his 2020 debut.
