BTS just released an anthology album on the 10th of June, and as a result, they have been busy with promotions on Korean music shows and other venues. On the 13th of June, their 9th debut anniversary, they released the Proof live performance session to interact with ARMY.

Eventually, on the 14th of June, the band held the Festa 2022 live dinner and although it is custom to have such dinners during their anniversaries, this year's was one that ARMY might not have anticipated. In the broadcast, BTS, who are known for their global hits, show-stopping performances, societal impact, and advocacy for the youth and the minority, decided to discuss their future not only as a group but as individuals.

At the dinner table, while deep in conversation, BTS was candid about the joys and pressures of being the biggest and most successful boy band in the world. From their performances, songwriting, creative processes, and group dynamics, they expounded on the mechanics of always working together, expressing the need to each develop their skills and explore their identities going forward.

Members revealed that while it had indeed been a great joy to work together, it was now time for them to focus on themselves and express who they really were. This would be done through solo music projects and engagement in other activities. It was during the dinner that Jimin revealed that he had been working on some songs that would be included in his solo album. In April this year, Jimin released his first-ever work outside BTS, an OST with Ha Sungwoon, promising that this was only the start of his career and that he was ready with more songs. After seeing huge success, his future album is now highly anticipated, with many even hoping for endorsements with reputable companies in fashion and entertainment.

Jimin specifically said that he would love for his music to resonate with fans and that the creative process exposed him to many feelings. In the broadcast, Jimin also asked for fans' understanding because while they had talked about their decisions together, they could not be able to reveal everything directly, which is obviously very sad and difficult but urged them to take every word they said as it is. Jimin was grateful to have fans by his side as well as the members to aid in this wonderful journey.

Fans can remember that since the year 2016, Jimin has always expressed the desire for solo work and opportunities in music as well as fashion. In an interview with Jin, he revealed that he would like to try out different things without restraint, from acoustic to dance and more. The world is waiting to hear his sound and discover his identity as a musician and artist.

A good look at the performance of Jimin's solo songs shows that he will be a successful soloist. His song Promise is the most streamed track of all time on SoundCloud, and all his songs are well streamed on all platforms, with Filter and Friends being nominated for the 10th Gaon chart for song of the year award. Filter is the most streamed Korean solo of 2020 on Spotify, it is the most-streamed Korean solo audio on YouTube, and the most-streamed Korean solo by an idol group on MelOn, to name a few. He is the first and only Korean soloist to have three songs selling over half a million units in the United States and With You achieved multiple new records for a Korean OST despite its awkward release time. Many are indeed waiting for him to also feature all the A-list artists who have previously asked to collaborate; some of them include: Troye Sivan, Khalid, Pink Sweats, Shawn Stockman, Taemin, Olly Alexander, Ailee, Lizzo, Kim Yeon Woo, Ateez' Wooyoung and Kingdom's Arthur and more.

Riding on the wave of these exciting news multiple keywords also began trending on Twitter with fans discussing his prospects and sharing what styles they'd love to see him experiment with. PJM1 IS COMING, When Jimin, JIMIN IS WORKING ON A SONG, Park Jimin, Jimins and Jiminie took over social media in hot anticipation. Local and international media outlets also got wind of the news and raised their expectation about what comes next.

It is vital for artists, as is true for all humans, to express themselves freely in whatever field they choose to venture into as individuals. As he draws from the depths of his being, we can't wait to see what Jimin has in store while wishing him much success.
