BTS' Jimin is often referred to as a Global It Boy, King of K-pop, Stan attractor, and many more for his stunning skills, natural talent, and hard work, as an artist in every aspect. He excels in every field, boasting an influence that will last a lifetime.
Recently he appeared yet again on Korean variety shows to prove his popularity at home. On the 13th of November, KBS2 Variety show '2 Days and 1 Night' held a Song Quiz episode where they made use of Jimin's part and visuals from the "Boy With Luv" MV."Boy With Luv" is one of those songs which are synonymous with Jimin for the overall feel of the song, his standout outfits, pink hair that matches the album cover, sweet vocals and smooth dance moves.
Previously on the 11th, comedian Kim Soo Yong during a feature on the 7th episode of 'MZ Culture Experience' on YouTube, met with some exciting Jimin-biased ARMY. He got to visit a Jimin birthday-themed cafe. While there, he had a wonderful time and even go to take home some lovely Jimin gifts; he was fortunate to get a Jimin scratch card allowing him more Jimin freebies. Worth highlighting as well is that during Jin's appearance on the SBS variety show 'Running Man,' he mentioned Jimin twice; in one instance, he even called Jimin on the phone to the amazement of the host, who regrettably admitted to not being personally acquainted with him.
On the international scale, Jimin is always going viral no matter what he does. On the 8th, TikTok star Fauzah Babadia, who has over 231K followers and 4.3 Million likes, made all fans jealous with the new addition to her room. In the video, she unveiled a large portrait of BTS' Jimin, a photo from one of his concept photos, which was made at her local picture canvas store. She hung this above her bed, captioning it with, "I'm never getting rid of this picture till death do us part." showing her fan spirit.
Another fan showed their love for Jimin in a special way. On the 10th Norwegian TikTok star Ingrid Elida who has over 2 Million followers and more than 50 Million likes shared their experience with the Jimin effect in a video expressing how Jimin is able to influence their sexuality as they could not resist his charms. Jimin does not only suck women in with his charisma and personality; people of all sexualities are not immune to his charms.
Of course, these are just a few instances that showcase Jimin's popularity. He is, after all, the first and only idol to rank first on Korea Business research's Brand Reputation rankings for 45 months overall and the only Male idol and BTS member to top the Gallup preference survey for two years consecutively. Among other accolades, he joined idols G Dragon and CL in 2019 as the only BTS member added to the authoritative Business of Fashion 500 class for his great influence on fashion. He also is the first and only Korean musician to have three national awards; The Medal of Cultural Merit for Korean Culture & Arts, the Certificate & trophy from Kim Baek-bong Heritage (for his fan dance), and the Korean Association's James A. Van Fleet Award.
