BTS' Jimin's Birthday is always a joyous festival for fans everywhere, evidenced by the magnitude of the over 500 Jimtober projects organized. From the United States, Ukraine, Egypt, Bangladesh, India, and even South Korea, the world has transformed into Jimin land.
On the 16th of September, Jimin fanbases @ALLFORJIMIN_KOR and@parkjamjam_kr announced a collaborative project for Jimin's 27th Birthday this year to turn the entire common ground near the Konkuk university into a 'My Serendipity' themed park for Jimin. The common ground is the largest container pop-up shopping mall in the world, and it is located in South Korea. The mall is built with 200 shipping containers spread over 5,400-square-meter (58,000 square feet), and it houses nearly 100 stores, 20 trendy restaurants & more.
The event, scheduled for the 9th and 10th of October, showcased beautiful posters, balloons, and fan arts done by @honeymanggae,@parkxminxmin, @jmcloseyes, and @9510137s. There was even a media/broadcasting team equipped with the latest technology like drones and special cameras to capture the magical experience for fans from every corner of the vicinity.
The never-seen-before magnificent project attracted many fans who visited to get a first-hand taste of the Serendipity Themed park. This even led to 커먼그라운드 (Common Ground) trending at #19 in Soth Korea on the 9th. On the online community platform The Qoo, fans reacted to this project saying:
"It's heaven because there are pretty faces all over the place."
"Jimin's fandom is the best in Korea and Abroad."
"Jimin's birthday is October festival around the world."
"Jimin's fans are truly amazing."
"It's a Jimin festival."
"Personally, I think it's the prettiest wrap I've ever seen."
"Tomorrow I am going to Seoul from the countryside to see that."
"I went there and it was really pretty and happy ㅠㅠ I went in the early evening, so the sunset and the most are up, so it's an art."
On the 11th of October, the clerk at the common ground admitted that they had not been receiving a lot of customers before, but thanks to the event, they experienced a heavy flow of visitors, which meant a boost in business. It is for this reason that they agreed to extend the event until the 13th of October. Since it will be opened on Jimin's Birthday, fans are glad, and the visits are bound to further increase, generating more business and even tourism. This is because many from inside and outside the country will visit the themed park.
