Jimin is dubbed a social media king for his various records held on different social media platforms, one of which is Instagram, which is arguably the world's largest image-sharing platform and the most influential in marketing matters. He had already recorded impressive achievements on the platform even before BTS members officially created their individual accounts in December of last year, and he has kept up the trend after the creation of his individual account.

According to data revealed on the 30th from K-pop radar, a data observatory platform, Jimin was the most followed K-pop act on Instagram over the past 24 hours prior to the report, gaining over 107k followers. The same platform also portrays that the case was the same for the four days prior to this report (26th, 27th, 28th, and 29th) and was overall the most followed K-pop act for the week between January 23rd to 29th.

This revelation continues to prove Jimin's popularity and influence, considering the fact that he has not been active on the platform since January 7th, when he made his last post, and he has the least number of posts compared to the other BTS members. 

Just recently, Social tracker, a platform that tracks social media statistics, revealed that Jimin had the highest engagement rate among BTS members on the platform, despite being the least active member.  This rate denotes the percentage of followers who actively interact with content from the account, such as by liking or commenting on the posts. This was also another demonstration of his influence and the high-interest level that his followers have in his content, and also an indication that a high number of followers does not guarantee more engagements for an account. Such statistics position him as a favorite among brands for brand endorsement deals despite not having the highest number of followers, because brands value engagements more.

As of now, Jimin has accumulated 29 million followers on the platform and is the third most followed member.

In other news, Jimin's individual hashtag #JIMIN surpassed 67 million posts on Instagram as of January 28th, extending his record as the world's most mentioned individual hashtag on the platform's history, a record that he has held from before he even had an individual account on the platform.

Other records achieved on the platform (before he even had an individual account) to further prove his dominance on the platform were during the 'Butter' album promotions when three of his individual posts made on the group's official account were first to surpass 7 million likes. These included the Concept Photo version 1, Concept Photo version 3, and Teaser Photo 1 [read here]. 

Concept Photo version 1 now has over 9.2 million likes [view here] and remains to be the most liked among the individual concept photo version 1 posts, version 3 has over 10 million likes [view here], and Teaser Photo 1 has over 7.5 million likes [view here] and also remains to be the most liked individual post for the Teaser Photo 1 posts. 

His individual Teaser Photo 1 post also surpassed 1 million likes in less than 20 minutes, making it the fastest individual BTS post to achieve it on the platform. Furthermore, the post reached 2 Million Likes in less than 1 hour and 40 minutes. Additionally, his Teaser Photo 2 reached more than 1 million likes in just 32 minutes, the fastest for all photos released on that day [read here].

Jimin also has the highest number of views on his individual reels and videos on the group's official account, such as on the Butter reel at 6.2 million views, the PTD reel at 5.5 million views, the Butter preview clip at 9.8 million views, Butter concept clip at 6.2 million views, and the 'MAP OF THE SOUL ON:E CONCEPT PHOTO BOOK' at 10.4million views.

Jimin was dominating Instagram before he had an individual account, and now that he has one, even with no activity for weeks, he is still showing his immeasurable impact, and fans can only imagine how much it would be if he was more active.

Congratulations to the social media king!
