BTS's Jimin is extending his great popularity in several countries.

In September of this year, the Korean Foundation for International Cultural Exchange (KOFICE) released their annual Global Hallyu Trends Report. This is an office founded under the Korean Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism in 2003. It has been “working toward transcending borders in order to promote mutual understanding and friendly relations with nations around the world.”

According to the 2022 report from the KOFICE Trends, Jimin was ranked 4th in the category of Brazil's most preferred Hallyu stars behind BTS, BLACK PINK, and Psy, with a rate of 2.6%. This was also published in the Brazilian major news outlet JORNALEXTRA, and he was the highest BTS member on the list.

In the United States, Jimin was ranked fifth at 0.6%, tying with G Dragon (Big Bang), ITZY, and Taeyeon of Girls' Generation making him the only BTS member to enter the list along with the other Korean superstars. This was also behind BTS, Black Pink, IU/Psy, and EXO/Twice. Jimin was once again ranked 5th with a 2.0% rate in Turkey, ranking behind BTS, BLACK PINK, EXO/Psy/Big Bang, and IU, showcasing great popularity in the country and the Middle East region.

In addition to the US, Brazil, and Turkey, Jimin was also revealed to be the most popular member tied or outright in Australia, Argentina, and Vietnam, according to KOFICE, although ranked outside the top 5 Korean singers or groups. The KOFICE this year collected and analyzed data across 18 countries, and while country-specific tables show only the Top 5, the overall countries chart shows the percentage per country.

Last year, Jimin was analyzed as one of the most mentioned topics under the K-Variety, K-POP, and K-Food topics, based on the Hallyu report. As he continues to prove his It Boy title, in Brazil, he is immensely popular. For instance, following the release of BTS x Garena free fire collaboration and world cup events, he was the center of attention amongst locals there. American analytics company ComScore last year analyzed Jimin's great presence in Latin America, and he emerged as the most popular Korean solo act in the region, surpassed only by BTS and BLACKPINK with a 25.6% approval rating.

Jimin has a strong presence in the United States with fans, locals, and the media, including radio stations, a phenomenon which birthed the 'US Media darling' title. His solo songs "Filter," "Lie," and "Serendipity" have each sold over 500K units, with "Friends" at 300K and "With You" over 100K units in the country. The term 'jimmerica' was coined because of his popularity among star-studded personalities and celebrities in the States like Emmy award-winning comedian John Oliver who mentioned his stand-out stage presence. They go on to include and not limited to TV personalities Jimmy Fallon and James Corden, Boyz 2 Men's Shawn Stockman, Khalid, Megan thee Stallion, Cardi B, actress Jennifer Aniston, Lizzo, Billboard's Tetris Kelly, Benny Blanco, former White House correspondent Julie Mason, Andrea Mitchell Award Winning NBC News Journalist, Anchor & commentator, Notable film director Gus Van Sant, Best selling author Marie Lu and many more.
