In order to reconcile his old and new self and be able to move forward, a ll the boys will have to come to terms with the end of youth so they can all move on together to the next stage of life (Jin’s life).

They are their own selves, with their own, multi-layered narratives, but they should primarily be interpreted as parts of Jin’s own psyche (Jin is indeed referred to as #psique on Instagram for the concept pictures).
