BTS' Jimin has yet again established his influence over pop culture with his recent collaboration for the luxury fashion brand Dior, for which he is the global ambassador. On January 16, the 28-year-old BTS member was chosen as the global brand ambassador for Dior, who joined the likes of BLACKPINK's Jisoo as one of the prominent K-pop idols to front the French luxury brand.
Since then, BTS' Jimin has participated in many campaigns and events related to the fashion label, the latest being the Dior Spring 2024 collection. Ever since he became the global ambassador, the FACE singer has been responsible for the massive rise in Dior's stock prices, which has, more recently, caused major items from the latest spring collection to be sold out.
As this news broke online, ARMYs are expressing their admiration of the FACE singer and his massive impact as Dior's first Asian male brand ambassador, as well as BTS' first member to sign a solo deal with a luxury fashion brand. "His impact", has been the talking point among fans, who are discussing whether it is causing Dior's stock prices to rise or pushing major items from the French luxury brand's spring collection to be sold out.
