Below is a thread of fans posting their voting tickets as a show of pride in their contribution to the big win.

As Jimin's fans adore and look up to their idol, his positive influence on them is ever witnessed through their deeds. For this happy day, the fans also made donations to UNICEF in Jimin's name to support the cause of catering to the needs of vulnerable children and their families around the world. Jimin has always been proactive in supporting children's well being such as in matters of health and education. His fans are proud to further his efforts in ensuring the well-being of children around the world.

Other donations were previously made to UNICEF, also under Jimin's name, to commemorate different occasions, such as his win at the 2021 MAMA for 'Favorite Tiktok Moment of the Year' with his 'Permission to Dance' video, which had previously set and still holds the record for the most viewed and liked Tiktok video by an individual Korean celebrity in the first 24 hours. This donation was also made towards the same cause of supporting the needs of vulnerable children and their families.

Another donation was made on December 18, again under Jimin's name, to celebrate his unrivaled title as the Brand Reputation King, having set a historical record of ranking first in the individual boy group member brand reputation ranking for 35 consecutive months and 37 months overall. The donation was titled a 'Survival Gift of Water' and was expected to help provide soap, oral rehydration salt sachets, and water purification tablets to 123 children to help prevent any contractions of deadly waterborne diseases.

UNICEF Canada acknowledged the receipt of the donation and expressed gratitude for the support.

Finally, another donation was made to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF) on December 21 in support of providing treatment and medical care to children with cancer in Gaza. This was a monthly update as the donation project was initiated in September as part of Jimin's birthday celebrations. The donations would be made monthly from September 2021 till August 2022, thus lasting a full year.

Congratulations to Jimin for being crowned as the Best Idol of 2021; he indeed deserves the 'Best Idol' title given all the donation projects and other social welfare projects that his fans constantly undertake, having been influenced by his kind and compassionate heart, aside from loving his exceptional skills in vocals and dance.
