On April 18, 2025, BTS' Jimin made an appearance on Weverse. He delighted fans with a heartfelt update as he continues his military service. With less than two months to go before discharge, the idol shared a warm message. He assured ARMY (BTS fanbase) that the wait is almost over.
He casually noted that it was almost time, referring to his upcoming return in June. He also replied to one of the fans saying that Jungkook is next to him.
For those who don't know, the duo is serving under the Buddy System where they can serve in the same unit. He wrote,
"There's really not much time left."
In one of his longer personal notes, Jimin opened up about his thoughts lately, from how long he should grow out his hair, to what kind of album or journey awaits him in his 30s.
He playfully questioned if working out would make dancing easier. He replied to a fan asking about his thoughts,
"These days, I'm thinking about how long I should grow my hair out . I'm going to grow it out quickly, right? I can wear earrings, right? I hope it's not blocked? Should I change my outfit style? I've never used perfume before. Should I use it."
He continued,
"But since you worked out, it won't be hard to dance, right? What song should I sing. What kind of album will we start talking about. What kind of journey will my 30s be? I want to perform for a long time without getting sick."
In another emotional message, Jimin responded to a fan who shared how BTS helped her through a painful loss. He thanked her and said he was proud of how much she’d grown, adding that he hopes her future is filled with happiness.
