BTS ARMY organize elegant birthday projects; bestow enviable ‘Jiminland’

Seoul: Park Jimin, member of the globally renowned K-POP colossus BTS, has set a new record for becoming the “only celebrity” in the world to dominate the worldwide Twitter trends with at least 29 keywords and hashtags, for the third consecutive year.     

The idol is celebrating his 27th birthday and received congratulatory messages from fans (ARMYs), celebrities, official accounts, and media worldwide. Also, he achieved a third new record, occupying a total of 29 real-time trends as he became the only celebrity in Twitter’s history to shake off the unprecedented dignity of the ‘real-time trends king’ by sweeping 29 of the world’s real-time trend ranking on his birthday. 

Even on his 26th birthday in 2020, he swept 28 of the top 30 trends.  

Jimin is one of the most loved idols not just in South Korea but also globally, with undoubtedly the biggest fan support for any individual idol. Many of the fans have noted the unbelievably huge traffic of visitors all showing up to attend Jimin's birthday events, some being fans while others are simply curious locals attracted by all the colorful events. 

The festive month of October also termed as ‘Jimtober’ has become another opportunity for idol's brand power to be seen. Fans from all over the world have organized numerous highly innovative and grand-scale birthday projects. 

It is pertinent to mention here that, the venues where the birthday events are being held have recorded big jumps in revenue, even causing some of the projects to be extended for their positive impact. 

Jimin has a global fanbase and fans worldwide have put up birthday events to celebrate the vocalist’s big day. Here, let’s take a look.
