The Jimin-written BTS single, “Friends,” has become the K-Pop boy group’s 59th track to cross 100 million streams on Spotify. The song was performed by Jimin and V as a sub-unit and is the fifteenth track in BTS’s fourth studio album, “Map of the Soul: 7.”
Friends is one of BTS’s experimental songs, and its Korean title translates to “friends of the same age.” Fans even guessed before the song’s release that Jimin and V, who are of the same age, would sing the song.

Friends is one of several songs written by Jimin that have found success. The BTS member has written for the group since its beginning, including tracks such as “Outro: Circle Room Cypher,” “Boyz with Fun,” “Lie,” “Promise,” and “Dis-ease.”
Friends is also the first song written, composed, and produced by Jimin to be nominated for the Gaon Chart Music Awards in 2020.
While he has not released a solo album yet, the singer’s songs show that it will be a bestseller when he does release it. The vocalist is not afraid of challenging himself and experimenting with new styles.
