Korean media outlets constantly give Jimin glorious titles for his many historic achievements. He excels in various aspects of his life and career, always reaching new heights.
For example, he is popularly known as the 'Dance King' and 'Dance god' for his unparalleled dancing skills that have come from his training background in multiple dance genres, and he is the 'Rookie's bible' and 'Idol of Idols' for this exact reason in that younger idols all look up to him as a dancer and aspire to be just like him naming him as their role model, while other senior idols immensely respect and admire his performances [read here, here and here].
Moreover, many people tend to know his name even though they may not be BTS or K-pop fans. The title 'LV FRONTMAN' came about after media reports indicated that Jimin was the reason why BTS became the global brand ambassador for the luxury fashion brand Louis Vuitton, which is the biggest luxury fashion brand in the world by valuation [read here, here, and here]. The title further stuck after Jimin became the opening model for the brand's fashion show in Seoul, considering that the opening and closing spots in a fashion show are usually the most important and coveted spots and are given to the biggest model or biggest model of the show, usually by the creative director personally [read here].
He is also known as 'Korea's Frontman' for his promotion of Korean culture and foods overseas [read here and here], the 'Healing Idol' for his ever so kind, warm, and comforting words to fans and to his audience in general [read here] and 'Trending Emperor' for how often he trends on social media for various reasons. These are just a few of the titles that Jimin carries as accorded by Korean media whenever they report on his impact.
Recently, a new title has come up from Korean media yet again, after he ranked first once again in brand reputation ranking for individual boy group members for July 2022. This became the 42nd month on aggregate where Jimin has topped this ranking, making him the FIRST and ONLY idol ever to achieve such a record. As of November 2021, Jimin had been placing first in this ranking for 35 consecutive months, again setting a record as the FIRST and ONLY Idol ever to achieve this incredible milestone.
Brand Reputation ranking is an essential factorin the career of a K-pop idol as it gauges an idol's marketability to the South Korean market based on how the public perceives the idol. It influences things such as possibilities for brand endorsement deals, among other things, where the top ranking idols are the most likely to get such deals.
Following this unprecedented achievement, a K-journalist from Star News published an article calling Jimin 'Idol President' and proceeded to detail how mind-blowing this is [read more here].
In celebration of such a happy day for Jimin and his fans, his fanbases made donations to UNICEF and 'Save the Children,' following in Jimin's footsteps where he has shown great concern and support for matters involving the health and general well-being of children. Again, Korean media published an article about the heart-warming deeds of Jimin's fans, going further to detail how Jimin himself is a constant donor to various causes involving children [read more here].
Being such a well-rounded artist and a person with the kindest and most beautiful heart, it is expected that he would record such significant achievements, and the records are only expected to grow now that BTS members are focusing on individual activities where Jimin will now have the opportunity to promote his individual work. Previously, Jimin had not been doing any personal promotions, and yet he has still been ranking first in brand reputation ranking. Fans are looking forward to the solo activities from the 'Idol President' Jimin!
Jimin is such a well-rounded artist and a person with a beautiful heart♥ It is expected that he would record more significant achievements. Thank you to the fans for not only supporting but also doing such wonderful projects or good deeds
