Jimin was the last member of BTS to join Big Hit Entertainment
In BTS, RM was the first member to join Big Hit Entertainment in 2010. Jimin was the last member of BTS to join Big Hit Entertainment and did not join until 2012. While Jimin was the last member of BTS to join the agency, V was the last member to publicly be announced in BTS’s lineup.
Before joining Big Hit Entertainment, Jimin was a student at Busan High School of Arts where he studied contemporary dance. Because of how skilled he was at dancing, Jimin’s teacher encouraged him to audition for an entertainment company, which led to Jimin joining Big Hit Entertainment in 2012.
Days after Jimin was introduced as a member of BTS, Jimin introduced himself to fans on BTS’s shared Twitter account. According to an online translation, he tweeted, “Hello ~ This is Jimin. It’s now public on Twitter ~! I’m 19 years old now and I love dancing! Nice to meet you!”
The members of BTS and fans are grateful for Jimin
In BTS, each of the seven members bring something unique and special to the group. Onstage, Jimin is a skilled performer who excels at singing and dancing. Offstage, Jimin is a kind and caring soul who provides emotional support to all of the members.
On season 2 of BTS: Bon Voyage, V wrote Jimin a letter about how much Jimin means to him. He also told Jimin how grateful he is that the two debuted in BTS together.
“Before our debut, you once got anxious about it. At the time, I had a meeting with the company and they asked me what I thought of you being on the team. I thought it over and said that you were there for me through the ups and downs, you were the one who laughed and cried with me. So I said that it would be good if such a good friend could debut with me. It felt good to say that and I was happy to be able to debut with you,” V wrote in his letter to Jimin.
