Juniors from BTS Jimin's Alma Mater are posing hearts in the practice room that Jimin once used.

"Jimin's stare was different. He did Ballet, Korean dance and comtemporary dance, no matter what it was."

On 27th, group BTS' new third full album 'Love Yourself: Tear' charted #1 on Billboard 200 albums. It is the new record for Korean singer. 'Fake Love' in this album was placed as 105y in Single Chart 'Hot 10" and proved its worldwide popularity.

Popular group BTS' member Jimin is from Busan Geumjunggoo, and he graduated from Hoedong Elementary School and Yoonsan Middle School. In February, Jimin gifted school uniforms to the graduates of Hoedong Elementary School. Jimin, who mastered dance since young age was enrolled into Busan Art High School's Dance Department as the top student in 2011.

Lee Hwasung teacher, who used to be Jimin's homeroom teacher at his Alma Mater still remembers the glitters in Jimin's eyes. Teacher said, "Generally, female students tend to be enrolled as the top student unprecedentedly." She added, "Normal kids tend to focus on one major among Ballet, Korean dance and contemporary dance yet Jimin tried his hardest in every class" recalling the memory. She also said, "I think Jimin was able to settle down as the main dancer of BTS since he polished fundamentals very solidly in various areas.

She dissuaded Jimin when he first said "I want to be a singer." She said, "He did excellent in school and was born with talents so I wanted him to stay in the pure art. But I couldn't dissuade him since his will to bet his life on it was too big."

Since BTS is now on top as the global artist, the juniors at his Alma Mater sometimes recieve the album gifts from his foreign fans.

Lyu Hyojong (15) who majors in contemporary dance at Busan Art High Schoool said, "Iam so proud that he practiced in the same practice room and I hold myself together during tough times by thinking of Jimin Seonbae."
