Basic Info

Jin works at the Meringue Clinic next to the General Store. He's easygoing and serious, and very health-conscious, both toward himself and others. If you happen to collapse from exhaustion, he's the first person you're going to see when you wake up, and the first person to scold you afterward too!

Heart Events

2-heart event: Jin will come over to your house and give you a Red Herb.

4-heart event: Upon talking to Jin at the appropriate time, he'll ask you if you're free for lunch, and whether or not you'd like to the Sundae Inn to have lunch with him. Afterward, be sure to show up at the Sundae Inn around noon (you cannot trigger the event if you show up late).

5-heart event Jin will come to your house and give you a Bodigzer XL

Request Event: Once he's at 5 hearts, go into the Clinic when he's there and he'll ask you to get him a Pontana Root. (you can find them deep in the mines, hoeing on your land, or buy from Simon at the Spring or Summer Flea Market) You can't marry until you fulfill his request, but you can take your time getting the root.

6-heart event: Talk to Jin at the appropriate time and he'll ask you to meet him later at Alan's tree. Go to the tree at around 12-1PM and he'll confess his love to you, you may then reject or accept him.

Once he is at 8 hearts you will get the blue feather, and you can propose. (Only if you've cleared all of his heart events)

Child

The bundle of joy you get from marrying Jin will have a very "proper" personality, regardless of whether it's a son or a daughter. The boy you have with Jin will wear glasses, and his hair will be tidy and his bangs will end in a little cowlick, whereas the girl that you have with Jin will also wear glasses, and she'll have her hair in two little pigtails.

Rival and Child

Jin and Anissa's rival son, Van

The rival for Jin is Anissa. There will be two "rival events" that can occur depending on whether or not you befriend Anissa. If you're playing as a girl, having Anissa at 2 hearts triggers the first rival event, and having her at 3 hearts can trigger the 2nd and final rival event. If you're playing as a boy, the first will trigger when Jin is at 2 hearts, and the second when he's at 3 hearts. Both are triggered by entering the clinic when they are inside and either Jin or Anissa has the proper amount of Hearts. If you trigger the final rival event, Jin and Anissa will end up married and will also end up with a son named Van. You will be unable to marry Jin afterward.

Alternate Appearance

Jin's alternate outfit.

Every character in HMToT has 2 outfits that they wear. They have an outfit for the seasons Spring and Summer, and also an alternate outfit in Fall and Winter (look left).

Jin's alternate outfit for Fall and Winter is vastly similar to his Spring and Summer outfit, the only notable differences are that his top is now purple and green, and the clothing he wears beneath his shoes (socks?) and his hair-tie is now a bit more purple-esque.
