JIN, Chris Martin
JIN, from boy group BTS, made a surprise appearance at Coldplay’s concert this Saturday, performing not only a 2002 Coldplay-BTS collaboration song, but also his own solo single.
JIN took the stage as a surprise guest on the third day of the British pop group’s “Music of the Spheres” world tour, held at Goyang Stadium in Gyeonggi City in front of an audience of approximately 50,000.
During one performance, JIN sat down at a piano alongside Coldplay frontman Chris Martin and leaned on his shoulders to perform the BTS singer’s solo single “The Astronaut” (2022).
Chris Martin contributed the music and lyrics to “The Astronaut,” and JIN performed the song at Coldplay’s October 2022 concert in Buenos Aires.
The two singers also performed “My universe” (2021), a collaboration between BTS and Coldplay that hit the charts. The song was praised by Korean fans thanks to the active participation of Chris Martin, who performed the lyrics in Korean, not just the English part.
Coldplay also released a new version of its hit “We pray” on Friday, featuring girl group Twice singing in Korean.
