Whereas, the world wide handsome, Jin told us that how he was always scared about his future which happens with most of the teenagers these days. He always felt that he will be left behind by his friends and will never be able to compete with others in life, but soon realized that some people get their destinations quickly, whereas some get theirs late and also taught us that if you ever feel that the world have overtaken you and you have been lagged behind the world, do not be hasty, never panic, just take a deep breath and think about the day will definitely come when the things you are passionate about will automatically pull you.
