[Naver] 180128 "We were fanboys before.. We empathize with ARMYs heart." (Jimin's cut)
By jim-in - July 05, 2018
Q. But then when you look at the lyrics that was based on experience, there must have been many hard times during the past five years.
Perhaps right now could be time I am most exhausted and lonely. We always said we are in happy situation but when we approach hard times, someone, friend, family, thinking not a single person could understand made me lonely. It happened recently and I listened to our songs again and watched our live performance made me little better.
Q. Is there a song you feel satisfied with the lyrics every time you sing?
Yes. Epilogue Young Forever's whole lyrics. It made me cry a lot because the song had our thoughts really well expressed from our performances.
Q. What was your most proud moment from your influence with the fans?
I heard that my younger cousin is my fan. So her/his mother said if he/she does well in school, she'll get a CD and phone conversation with me and since then she/he was top student in entire class.
Q. Last Year, you suggested that this year's goal was 1st place in Billboard 200 and a stadium tour. Excluding team goals, what's your personal goal you want to achieve?
There's no change of wanting to become perfect singer but I want to think about what I really want to do.

[Newsen] 171214 BTS "2017 results were all from our fans, next goal is a Japan dome tour"
By jim-in - July 05, 2018
Group BTS (RM, Jin, Suga, J-hope, Jimin, V, Jungkook) mentioned their next goal.
On December 13, BTS held a special event for the successful release of their eighth single in Japan. BTS' eighth single Mic Drop/DNA/Crystal Snow was released on the 6th.
On December 12, the single ranked first in Japan's weekly Oricon singles ranking chart with 360,000 points. It stayed in first place for six days straight. It was the first for an international artist to pass 300,000 points in all of Oricon's chart history.
On December 14, they appeared on Mezamashi TV and announced their next goal for Japan's promotional activities. Mezamashi TV introduced BTS as a group that had remarkable activities such as being the "first K-pop group to perform in Americas's top three music awards"---and with the release of their Japanese single last week, they are the "first international artist to sell over 300,000 copies in the same week."
They were asked about this year's achievement and RM answered, "There are a lot to be thankful for this year. I think it's all thanks to our ARMY's (fans)."
When asked about their future, Suga said, "Our goal is a Japan dome tour." Jimin added, "I really want to do it." The staff then asked, "In detail, when do you want to hold this? This year or the year after?" Jimin jokingly responded, "Now, I want to do it now."
On the 22nd, BTS will appear for the first time in Japan TV Asia Music Station's year-end special, Music Station Super Live 2017. After concluding all the activities in Japan, they'll be back in Korea to attend the 2017 SBS Gayo Daejeon in Seoul, Guryogu Gocheok Sky Dome on the 25th, and the 2017 MBC Gayo Daejejeon at Kyungido Ilsan MBC Dream Center on the 31st.
They will appear on the show ABC-TV Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin Eve on the 31st to perform "DNA" and "Mic Drop" from their new mini-album Love Yourself: Her released in September. It would not be a live performance as it was pre-recorded when they were invited to the American Music Awards in November.

[Naver] 171212 "You've done a great job this year", BTS Jimin's ads were displayed in New York Times Square
By jim-in - July 05, 2018
BTS Jimin was on eleven screens in New York Times Square.
On the 10th, Jimin's ad was displayed on eleven screens of Nasdaq and Thomson Reuters in New York Times Square. It was for year-end cheers from his Chinese fanbase.
New York Times Square, also known as "The Intersection of the World", is located in the Triangle Zone, intersecting 42nd, 7th and Broadway streets of New York. The daily average number of pedestrians in this area is about 1.5 million.
Because the promotion is greatly effective, the advertising cost is really high at around a hundred thousand dollars.
K-pop groups such as EXO, BTS, Twice and Wanna One had ads displayed for their birthdays or anniversaries but this one drew attention because the purpose was to congratulate Jimin for doing a great job this year.
The fanbase that sponsored this project said they wanted to promote Jimin in United States and also to thank Jimin for his remarkable activities in 2017.
Meanwhile, from (December) 8th to 10th, in Seoul Guryogu Gocheok Sky Dome, BTS concluded their three-day concert "Live Trilogy Episode III Wings Tour Final."
