BTS's Jimin continues to steal hearts and shine as Spanish media names him as one of the best vocalists in K-pop

Since his debut, Jimin has set himself apart as a focal point of performances not just in BTS but also in the entire K-pop industry. Both his vocals and dance have constituted some of the most iconic and memorable performances in K-pop over the years, causing his immense popularity across the globe for his unparalleled talent and skill.

Jimin's extensive background in different dance genres has given him the ability to add a unique touch to every dance move during choreography, making him stand out on any stage [read about his dance journey here], so much so that even the South Korean government, as well as cultural institutions, have recognized his talent and skill [refer here]. In fact, the cultural critic Kang Myung-Seok, who has appeared as a MAMA judge, described Jimin as "a symbolic artist who is the flower of the awards ceremony" and further stated that "he is the reason why you should watch MAMA" [read here]. 

Moreover, award shows like the MMAs have now made it a tradition to use his solo stages as highlights in videos promoting the yearly shows to drive up anticipation among the viewers. His solo stages from the 2018, 2019, and 2020 MMA shows have all been used in promotional videos for the award show [read here], and one of his solo stages even significantly influenced BTS' 2018 'IDOL' performance to win the 'Legendary Performance' award at the 2021 MMAs [read here]. 

What is more, popular artists use his solo stages as inspiration for their artworks that end up on display in national exhibitions, such as the fresco painting exhibited at the Alumni Exhibition of SNU Villa D'Art and artist Goheon Kim Ho-sung's artwork inspired by Jimin's MMA 2018 fan dance, which was displayed at his 'Fun & Fan' exhibition held at Insa Art Plaza [read here].

His impressively wide vocal range that sees him hit some of the highest high notes ever, notes that would, in fact, be impossible for male singers to pull off, is another factor that has placed him among the best and most admired vocalists in the industry. IZE magazine recently named him as the 'Idol of Idols' and detailed a lengthy piece on why this title belongs to Jimin. The article mentioned that Jimin stands out as BTS' irreplaceable main dancer and vocalist and further pointed out Jimin's voice at the beginning of 'Blood Sweat and Tears,' which it terms as the turning point of BTS' career [read here].

Jimin's impact as an artist is evident from all these different scenarios of acknowledgment from different parties, and media outlets continue to report on his influence. News emerging on April 3 shows that yet another magazine has published a feature where it names Jimin as one of the best vocalists in the K-pop industry.


Flooxer Now, a Spanish entertainment media outlet, published an article with a list of 10 idols considered to stand out for their vocals. The feature introduced this list by saying that "although all idols have been trained to sing well, every K-Pop group has some members who stand out for their voices." Jimin made it onto this list as the only member from BTS' vocal line, and while talking about him, the article states that Jimin has been instrumental in helping BTS to shine all around the world not only for his charisma and impeccable choreography but also because of his vocals.

Fans couldn't agree more, and here is some of what they had to say.

Jimin's unique vocal color and texture, along with his top-tier dance skills, have undoubtedly massively contributed to BTS' success, and fans can't wait to see him explore more of his own style and realize his full potential with individual work.
