Is this a quiz or what?
What I know Jin is from a comfortable family. Not chaebol level obviously. He sometimes buy and cook food for the boys and took care of them. I love how humble he is
Let’s watch how Jin cooked birthday celebration for BTS’ first birthday

Ah, I see. That just shows that Jin is truly passionate about what he does. And that he doesn’t view himself as “higher” or “more” because of the wealth of his family. Much respect to him!

Changed the title of the thread from “Which 2 BTS members were born with a 'silver spoon'?” to “[QUIZ] Which 2 BTS members were born with a 'silver spoon'?”. -
But that is what silver spoon means or I’m tripping
Coming from a wealthy family doesn’t mean you also are personally rich
-
OP I’m not sure but I do know Jin’s family is well off. They have a company based in Germany I think that sells stuff to Samsung
The next may be Jimin. He said his dad used to donate money to others and that inspired him to do the same. His dad used to bring him flowers and cake on his birthday( don’t know if that’s something normal but for me it’s quite privileged, my parents ain’t doing that)
But Jimin‘a family has to be well off if his dad could donate right?

Silver Spoon means you're spoiled and given everything by your parents, Jin accomplished everything on his own. Not all rich parents hand out everything to their children on a silver platter.

what is difference between silverspoon and goldenspoon?
-
Silver spoon doesn’t mean a spoiled rich kid, it just means inherited wealth. You are rather describing “spoiled silver spoon syndrome”
Also how are we sure to know Jin wasn’t given the best of his needs? We just know his life from his debut. We didn’t see him growing up. I get it that Jin personally didn’t ride on his family’s privilege to succeed, but you talk as if you were there when Jin was growing up

Same thing. Just rarely used.

Exactly, we don't know what his parents gave to him when he was a kid, hence I'm only talking about what is known. About his time during trainee days and in BTS.
"As an adjective, "silver spoon" describes someone who has a prosperous background or is of a well-to-do family environment, often with the connotation that the person does not appreciate or deserve his or her advantage, its having been inherited rather than earned." - Wikipedia
Jin earned his money himself and wasn't given a spot in university or a position by his parent, so this expression doesn't apply to him.

Fair enough. We know he didn’t act privileged from debut.
Silver spoon still has nothing to do spoiled rich kids. I used it in tons of my essays to describe a privileged background. Connotation just means how it’s implicitly used not what it explicitly stands for

This, I mean I don't know if OP is trying to be shady but assuming that he/she isn't
Silver Spoon means having a wealthy background, which isn't a bad thing. Silver Platter on the other hand, means having everything given to you, without any effort which I guess we aren't talking about it here.
I wish I had like 348748718 silver spoons

I've never seen it used in the case someone comes from a rich family but doesn't live off his/her family money and doesn't use his/her relative's connections in their education/career.
-
Jin and then RM are from the most well-off families as far as we know.
We know they got to spend some time overseas for their education, that's upper middle class and upper class level.
Then I think JK, JM, JH as middle class kids, then V and Suga as working class kids (though I think V's parents got wealthier with time, since he could attend dance school and play an instrument as a teenager)
obviously Jin and RM were raised very well and are polite and nice, and Jin as the richest, has never shown hints of being spoiled, I think he has a great personality. But also let's not pretend here that wealthy privilege isn't a thing! You can still turn out a great person while benefitting from the opportunities a rich family offers, no, it's not the same as growing up poor. I never could have spent a semester abroad and I wish I could have. Couldn't go to a private school which meant not getting into the better universities too. These things DO matter.

I am guessing you want to talk about “Silver Platter”.
And if you have not seen silver spoon being used for privileged background, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist OP

Taehyung said at one point his dad owned a clothing store, so it seems like they moved on up from the farming at one point which allowed him those things.

I think his father doesn’t own the company, he is an executive in it (supplier of Samsung and located in Germany). I think he is in charge of the Korean branch
