“Still can't believe this is actually happening.”

Netizens praised Kim Seok-jin for inviting an A-list Hollywood actor.

“Omg Jin and Tom Cruise on Run Jin literally Jin's own show Run Jin is on another level, damn Hollywood actor to be appear Kim Seokjin JIN IS COMING KSJ2 IS COMING ECHO IS COMING ECHO BY JIN IS COMING ECHO HIGHLIGHT MEDLEY #Dont_Say_You_Love_You #ECHO_D4 #Jin_Echo,” @Jin_Vocal_King commented.

“Tom Cruise being a guest on Run Jin is actually so insane bc i still remember the way bts went on sk variety shows and were ridiculed, bullied and harassed. i remember the reason they started run bts was to be free from that treatment, to have a place of their own. and now A-list global celebrities are clamouring for the opportunity to be on just ONE member’s variety show slot. I’m so proud of these boys you have no idea,” @megaminimoni_ stated.

“Tom Cruise on Run Jin is huge. Please, just enjoy the episode. Celebrate the fact that an A-list Hollywood celebrity chose to promote his blockbuster movie from his hugely successful movie franchise on Jin's show. Acknowledge what that means for how far our 7 have come,” @ARMY4LIF84 added.

“Tom cruise choose RunJin to promote himself and his movie in South Korea!!! JIN you will always be FAMOUS AND LEGEND" What u did, was not an attempt to praise BTS bt to minimalize the impact Jin has. Don't come up with solo excuses. He is JIN of BTS & It's HIS Self-produced show,” @DivyaSeokjinnie replied.

“Tom Cruise appeared in Jin's self produced variety show. That's so much hot. Because it was all Jin. The company's money didn't go to the show so the company has nothing to do with this,” @MyraOmen wrote.

“OMG OMG!! TOM CRUISE on Run Seokjin!! THAT'S why Jin was training for stunt/action work! Omg...he went from training to Tom Cruise in 2 episodes!! This is so big! And Simon Peg likely met him! Everything, all dots connecting! You don't think MI8xJin is a possibility do you?” @dominguez_cg added.
