'Viral King' Jimin takes over different social media platforms for his numerous iconic moments during BTS' 3-day #PTD_ON_STAGE_SEOUL concert
As witnessed from BTS's past concerts or any kind of performances for that matter, Social Media King Jimin never fails to go viral on various social media platforms and among media outlets as a standout. His fierce stage presence, stunning beauty, impeccable vocals, and dance coupled with his sweet personality when interacting with fans and even sometimes him just vibing on stage are always highlights of the shows. His mere existence at the concerts creates hot topics among fans and locals.
The just-completed 3-day #PTD_ON_STAGE_SEOUL concert was no different. Over the past three days, Jimin went viral on various social media platforms with video clips of him at different points during the concert that sent fans into a frenzy, such as during soundcheck for his ethereal beauty, during the actual concert performances for his powerful yet graceful and captivating moves and honey vocals, or him just having fun on stage. There was never a dull moment with him, and fans had every reason to shower him with love, praise, admiration, and respect.
Things would start getting heated up right from the soundcheck. A clip of him during Day 1 soundcheck was posted by one fan on Twitter, and it quickly went viral as fans could not help but be entranced by his ethereal beauty. So far, the clip has accumulated over 201k likes with over 2.3M+ views, having accumulated close to 200k likes and 2M views in just 20 hours. Another similar clip posted by a different fan has over 324k+ views. 'HE LOOKS SO GOOD' even became a trending topic on Twitter as fans talked about Jimin's good looks.
For Day 2 soundcheck, one clip has over 350k+ views, while two other clips by different users have 438k+ and 127k+ views, again fans praising his lovely self as he interacted with fans.
Mainly, clips of his performances such as for ON (1.7M+ cumulative), IDOL (1.1M+), BLACK SWAN (1.4M+ cumulative), FIRE (249k+), DOPE (126k+), GOGO (112k+), BOY WITH LUV (146k+) and the DYNAMITE dance break (173k+) have all accumulated hundreds of thousands of views on Twitter alone, some even going into millions in just a few hours. Here are just a few of the numerous clips captured and posted by fans. On aggregate, these views run into millions for each song if we were to look at all the individual clips posted by different fans, all having been achieved within the past three days.
His outfits for the concert, such as the see-through mesh top that he had for some performances, were also a major trending topic. For example, a Brazilian media outlet reported on the world 'Pelado' being the top most used word in the country in relation to Seoul, as fans reacted to Jimin's see-through top at the concert on the first day of the concert.
Apart from it being a trending topic in Brazil, one of the video clips of the footage used in the media report has accumulated over 1Million views on Twitter, and there are other posts of the same clip by other fans that have also accumulated hundreds of thousands of views.
There was also his display of extreme professionalism during Day 2 of the concert when the sudden heavy rains caused the stage to be slippery, and despite his fall while performing the 'Black Swan' choreography, he got back up quickly and smoothly and made everything blend to look like there was no mishap in the first place. Three of the clips have a combined 1.5M+ views, and these views are, in fact, much higher if other fans' clips are considered.
Other points of interest were him showing his care to fans when he was asking them if they were cold (371k+), the show of his unimaginable core strength (1M+), him being his humble self when he bowed to the fans to show his extreme gratitude to them (110k+), when fans noticed his new set of tattoos (154k+ likes) and over 50 media outlets around the world published articles about these new tattoos, and him just having fun on stage (188k+). Even his mere existence, like him walking off the stage (201k+) or just standing on stage, managed to go viral as fans marveled at his beauty and perfect physique (114k+). These are the views for a select few clips only.
Other video clips with hundreds of thousands of views include clips from cinemas showing fans fangirling over Jimin such as in Brazil (177k+), another clip was the one showing the number of fans in attendance of the concert with purple hoodies, which showed the number of Jimin-biased fans in the concert (305k+) as examples.
Perhaps the moment that has gone viral the most was the moment Jimin was having fun on stage alongside another member during the 'Airplane Pt2' performance, which fans are now calling the 'slapping video.' In just 20 hours, one clip had already crossed 1M views, and so far, it has over 2.4M views. Some fans say locals in their countries are posting the clip on their Snapchat, and it was also shared widely on other platforms like Tiktok and Twitter.
For example, Twitter was averaging 15k+ searches for the clip each hour, and the clip also became a default search term on TikTok for the frequency with which it was being searched and viewed. The video even became a new trend on TikTok.
As if all these instances weren't enough, even his D4 countdown tweet for the concert became the most liked, retweeted, and replied to despite not being the first one to be posted. Jimin owned the concert right from the countdown.
Jimin absolutely dominated the three-day concert just as he always does, being the member who was mentioned the most with the highest trends in each day [refer to Day1, Day2, Day3 reports], and going viral on every platform for different reasons. He is the true definition of a 'Concert King' and 'Viral King.'
Hands down my favourite performer, he’s endlessly talented and always puts on an incredible performance for his fans. He looked so happy to be back on stage in front of ARMY’s, his love for his fans and what he does is always so apparent when he’s on stage. Jimin is an absolute joy to watch.
