Jimin journey is really motivating because it developed from self hatred , insecurities and negativity to self love and positivity. We often start our weight loss journey as self hatred of our body leading vicious cycle and get stuck and deteriorate ourself. But , Bts taught us by LOVE YOURSELF message to work on us . Jimin is a big part of it. We truly love our Jiminie for being too inspirational and comfort us .💜💜💜💜💜 Wow so much likes , thanks . I hope we can find happiness in whatever form we are . I think our happiness and well being matters the most not some crazy standards. Also recently I got to know , Jimin eats healthy and go on frequent diets to maintain his weight because as ballet or for his performance extra weight cause some hindrances so I think he thinks maintain as required. I think we all agree for dancing and performance weight some has effect on it. As long as he is happy and healthy, we should also be happy for him. 😊
Jimin became my bias before I knew who he was and learning of his struggles is why he'll always be my Bias4Life. He's also like me because I'm very empathetic and a perfectionist. I'm so glad that he learned to love himself unconditionally and I'm super proud of him. I've learned a lot from Jimin and BTS in a few years and I'm going to be ARMY4Life. Stay healthy and happy everyone 💜😇
@@thiccaf6541 It really was. I dont believe in putting idols on a pedestal. Not even BTS, who seem like the nicest people. What they did in that clip as well as others was horrible.
I hate it too. Every time that clip comes on, the one where they are rating each other, I cringe. You can clearly see how hurt Jimin was always coming in last place. I know the guys were young at the time, but that type of teasing is really hurtful. I wish they would stop getting those questions from fans. Anyone, regardless of fame, would be hurt by that. Not only is it hurtful, it's traumatizing and scarring. It only takes one nasty comment to set you off on a neverending path to feeling low about oneself and to have self- image issues. I don't know what happened behind the scenes, but it is clear that these comments ate at him constantly and it would've been nice if he had the support from the members instead of the insults. There have been at least three other clips I've seen where he was called ugly and fat by the guys. I know they were young and didn't mean to be hurtful, as guys tend to show bravado and make a joke out of everything, but not everyone is going to be able to shrug it off as a joke. The hurtful comments stay with you forever. Looking back, I'm sure they see it was wrong, abd they've supported him since then, but definitely these clips are difficult to watch.
as a 2015/16 army, i remember the constant talk during the run and bs&t eras abt how much weight he had lost and how concerned armys - esp international armys - were. i also remember when the interview where he said he only ate one meal in 10 days came out, it was like confirmation of what we were all kinda fearing i guess (how extreme his diet was), and it was just a really hard time as an army - because not only did we have confirmation of the extent of jimins dieting but this was also the time where there was so much hate regarding bts everywhere (korean media, western media, esp social media) and also so many fanwars that armys were constantly in the middle of - i really cant even imagine how jimin and the members felt through all of this. also as someone who has struggled with and been hospitalised for anorexia myself, one of my biggest fears was always people finding out and trying to help by offering me food ect because i found it very triggering and exposing, of course im not saying jimin went through this but i guess i worried about him in that sense aswell. i really cant imagine constantly hearing "gain weight" "we're worried about you" "please eat" ect from tens of thousands of people everyday while he seemed to also be going through this cycle of self hatred and criticism - and through all this, still receiving endless hate and insults from antis. of course we are only fans and we only know the members and their struggles through what they choose to share with us, and we will never truly know what he went through and the extent of it :(( anyways im not expecting anyone to read this little rant but it felt good to write, i love jimin and all the members dearly and always wish the best for them and hope they stay healthy :))
i became an army in early 2016, and you're so right, the bs&t era was absolutely exhausting, i remember how he looked after and before performances, he deserved another treatment through the whole of it, it felt as if we as a fandom tried to "help" him the wrong way as you mentioned, i am so glad you wrote this because i remember every single interview and fan war and how he talked about certain things on his lives, it also was a huge era for bts (and for bts antis...) it had to be so rough for them
@@xnoodlezx it was on the show ‘please take care of my refrigerator’ in 2017 :)) here’s a link to the part i’m talking abt, jimin mentions it at abt 2:15 ua-cam.com/video/6j0OUjmCuZI/v-deo.html
@@visualaddicted5264 I’m an obese grandma and Jimin is far from fat. He’s adorable and my Libra bias. Sorry not sorry but JHOPE is my bias. Though I only listen to pre 2017 content
I have a LOT of respect and admiration for Jimin. He is one of these fabulous achievers with incredible willpower. Nothing was given to him. He knew what he wanted and he did everything to get there. I don't know anyone who would not like to change "something" about themselves. 80% of us do nothing...however Park Jimin didn't hesitate. He is fantastic!
Jimin's story is one of the most extreme that I've heard. I've been a fan for almost four years now and I had heard about his extreme dieting. When I first saw them perform in 2019 Jimin seemed very happy on stage. It's great to see how passionate he's become about "Love Myself" even to the point of passing on the message during I-Land. It's not easy to hear about the different pressures and criticisms they've faced. A lot of the BTS members including Jimin have said that they started going to the gym more during the pandemic and the work they've put in shows. The enthusiasm that Jimin showed for it in an interview sounds like he's really felt good about it and not pressured into it. When I saw PTD day's 1&2 in Las Vegas. He looked healthy, happy, and was taking every opportunity he could to show he was enjoying himself even to the point of saying "I'm not ready for the next song, I need to hear ARMY scream first." All I could ever ask from any of them is that they're happy and healthy.
Eating disorders are very serious. I am so proud he has the support needed and his brothers and family. There is too much pressure for perfection. Jimin looks fantastic.
He looks amazing now, I hope he’s happy within himself 💜 I was anti worried over Dynamite era tbh, in the practise video he was insanely skinny. Its hard to not slip back into restricting, I know from personality experience but he seems more confident and happy these days 💜
yea, me too. i remember watching one of their interviews during butter/dynamite promotions. i recall seeing jimin's arms realllyyy skinny and it worried me a lot. it made me so sad to see what all of that hate from people, including himself, and insecurites had done to him. seeing him gain weight and getting back to how he looked during debut makes me so happy. I love a healthy Jimin but I just hope he knows that he doesn't have to look perfect for us. Whether he's buff or thin, it doesn't matter bc true fans would love and support him either way. As long as he's not putting him or his body in any sort of danger, then I'm happy.
It always would break my heart to see how Jimin never thought he was good enough, I wish he could see how much we love him and are proud of him. In their last concert I was so happy to see Jimin in a good place, he seemed happy and confident. 💜💜💜
Wow!! I am reading many of the comments left, and let me just say that I was truly moved by the stories shared, and the concern and support for Jimin. I myself honestly because I'm a BTS fan in general I have always thought the boys look great, some looks suit some members more than others, but all I have ever cared is about their health. To all the fans that throughout the years have made their concern over this issue I thank you so much. Thank you for this video, I hope a lot of people understand now why so many fans are so protective of him.
Jimin was and is always perfect as he is. He didn't and still doesn't need to change or worry about his looks/weight/height,... JUST BE YOURSELF, JIMIN, THEN YOU GET REAL FANS WHO ACCEPT U HOW U ARE!
Ranking people is an unforgivable thing to do especially to a young teen. Rating beauty only by what your eyes see, is shallow, unrealisitc and leads to nothing but self-loathing and insecurities. True beauty shines from the inside out. Jimin is a beautiful person on the inside, and it glows to the outside. As he aged, his looks grew to match what he is on the inside. It was always there.
Also when I found that video of jimin calling himself a "fat pig " I cried because he was only a teenager and he shouldn't have even been worried about those things at that age
I love my Jimin and I’m happy that he finally understood that he can reach out and get help no matter what the problem may be. He really looks happier and healthier. Stay strong my Jimin you are not alone. Love my Jimin 💜💜💜💜💜
I feel like we forget that they are people too. Just like you and I. A lot of other women, men, and everything in between have gone through the same thing. His story is very motivating and inspiring. Like one of their most popular album says, "Love Yourself!" 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Mi vida, todo por lo que tuvo que pasar 😭 me alegra tanto que ahora haya encontrado el balance que necesitaba, se ve mucho más tranquilo y seguro de sí mismo
YESSSS I WAS WAITING FOR THIS ONE! Your editing, subbing, and just plethora of information has improved so much and I am so happy to see this one bc I relate to Jimin's self-hate struggles and feelings of not being good enough. I hope they rest a lot
This video just broke my heart. Jimin is beautiful in everything he does. He should have never been made to feel the way he did. I have always loved the way Jimin looked in all of his evolutions throughout the groups career but never knew how severe his dieting became at certain points. I wish that I could've been a positive voice in the comments for him to combat the toxicity that he endured. Jimin I purple you. #JiminIsPerfect
Don’t want to point fingers but at this point i think Jungkook is the one that’s being obsessed with loosing weight. His live in Vegas he talked about getting thinner. Also they vlive with jimin, V & JHope; Jimin was apologizing for eating (although it was a big meal and it was late) and not going to excersice with JK. I can’t believe that they don’t have nutritionist and therapists that travel with them. Jeez the stress they are under it’s a miracle they are not all suffering from depression and/or anxiety.
He is pressured by his group mates too..I cried when I heard them saying things about his weight. They need to receive therapy as well to know how to encourage him to not dive in unhealthy behaviors to loose weight.
Hope he and the rest of the boys realize they dont have to look a certain way or be a certain weight or just try to be perfect in general. Army loves them no matter what
Jimin is my favourite member and always will be. We have similar struggles and his song Lie really helped me realise I wasn't alone with the struggle of perfection etc. I love him so much he is so strong for going through so much, poor boy didn't deserve it
It truly is not easy for them at all. Being under spotlight at all times. Trying to be and look the best for fans. Those death threats made are ridiculous. All of them look good and should continue to look good healthily and happily. Glad Jimin is happier now.
The blood sweat and tears era scared me the most. I remember the members had gone on vlive. There was a massage chair and Jimin sat in it and it was like his body was swallowed by the chair. You could feel the vibe in the room was down because he looked so fragile and thin. I'm so happy he's not that small anymore.
Jimin is so handsome and the most important: Talented, awesome, spectacular, great , lovely ,sweet, UNIQUE Why he is worry about physical appearance.? He knows we love him 😍🤞🏻🤞🏻😘😍😍❤❤💜🐣 When he is going to understand he is SO HANDSOME, BEAU, BELLISISMO, GORGEOUS,STUNNING 😍😍❤❤💜🐣
I could never be an idol. Having to be perfect in my looks and appearance, getting hate from fans because I'm not pretty enough for them... people assuming I'm lazy because my body doesn't look like a goddess 24/7. These fans have no idea how much their words effect these idols 🥺
THIS IS HOW A BECAME AN ARMY I WAS FEELING VERY TOO CONCIOUS ABOUT MY WEIGHT FEELING DEPRESS AND ONE DAY THROUG YOU TUBE I FOUND BTS AND SAW ONE OF THE LOVE YOUR SELF CONCERTS AND JIMIN IMPRESSED ME THE MOST SO I STARTED DIGGING MORE ABOUT HIM I LERNED ALL ABOUT HIS STRUGLES WITH HIS WEIGHT AND THIS IS HOW I BECAME TO HEAL MY SELF WITH HIM AND THAT'S WHY HE IS MY BIAS . I PURPLE HIM
Remember, there is nobody like YOU! You are a one-off. A bit of extra weight you can lose by dancing to your favorite music... Go wild girl ......just dance your negative thoughts away #Perfection is boring
It’s truly heartbreaking but I have so much respect for him. So much pressure and he along with the rest handle it with grace. Junk in is perfect and they are outstanding human beings.
Well, its all because of his country he came from the standard of beauty is high and kpop rules is strict he put alot of effort and determination to be become one of the biggest boy group In kpop industry. He deserved so much respect and not hatred.
I also hate how they rank idols by looks and pressuring them to through these extreme diets but I am glad they recovered especially for Jimin because that was so sad and heartbreaking and hat h🎩 m and the other idols are ent through. 💜💜💜💜💜💜🖤💗🌍
Seeing all this i am realising that us ARMY are sometimes so toxic for our idols , jugging them by weight, looks etc . They all are precious and i hope we should all love them equally coz they are BTS . They have healed millions of people by their songs , words , actions. Lets not hurt them and try to better for them, for us and the people we love. BTS BORAHAE💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
That's what I was always worried especially during 2020- 22 he was extremely loosing weight rapidly I couldn't content my worries and I also spoke about it a few times in many social media platforms also got into fight with a few fellows 😅 but they're just looking out for Jiminie so it's fine, but now that he's getting better hope it keeps getting better 😔😔
They all had issues we were told bit by bit a little here an there they each shared and I have no clue if they read any of our encouraging words that thousands of army's wrote to each one of them but they have come a long way and are truly CONFIDENT and CAPABLE they are world wide super stars they have learned a lot and I am sure they now know they are loved by millions while they encouraged us I think they also encouraged themselves so am very proud of them an the growth they have lived and are much more mature now THANK YOU BTS!!!!!
Omg Jimin sweetheart, don’t ever call yourself a pig or ugly. You are so beautiful. Even when you get old and bald, you will still be beautiful. Eat well and stay happy please.
Never put a price or a mark on someone's body and their beauty as the negativity will eat away at their soul and its truly unfair what bodyshaming has done to some people and how normal people think it is to be able to do it without themselves facing the repercussions and letting others feel pain, torture and suffering due to a few words someone has said to the. Its truly disheartening 😢💔
@NatureLover I also feel like Jimin and Jungkook are very scrutinized. They were always, and probably still are, being told how their body needed to look. They were also told something like "I liked how you were 3 months ago" or "You looked better like this". It's horrible. I've been through something like this myself, but I was teased and bullied a lot by how "skinny" I was. It feels horrible, makes you feel insecure, and it's hard to tell if you're actually what people say you are, or if they're just messing around with you. I encourage people to not body shame or to intentionally hurt someone by saying mean things about their appearance. Let this be a warning because karma is real.
There is another time, in my opinion, he was on a diet again. His live performance FILTER. I love this song and the performance is amazing! But it hurts to see how thin he is at that moment. I hope he’ll stay healthy as he is right now and never would torture himself with diets ever again
All the people watching this video, please, seek therapy! Stop talking about other people's weight and stop misdiagnosing him! He is a grown person and in many vlives has said that he doesn't like diets, he doesn't do diets. He encourages a healthy lifestyle, taking care of your body and loving your body. He has always been athletic and lean. Hello, he is a professional dancer!! He has also said that he knows when his body feels and looks the best for dancing, for more beautiful dance lines. Literally leave him alone. Stop projecting your own insecurities on him, sorry that you think he does extreme diets (which was actually mistranslated and misinterpreted), he actually stated that he ate one meal a day (intermittent fasting) for 10 days, do you think company would allow 1 meal in 10 days?? Do you think his doctors/trainers would allow that?? Get up from your computer screens and stop watching videos full of misinformation!!!
And, please, stop commenting in Jimin’s vlives or weverse for him to eat or eat more or any other pitying comments, he already once addressed them and told you that he eats healthy and delicious meals and fans shouldn’t worry about him!
Jimin, just a word for you from a concerned fan. You should not listen to what cruel people have to say as they are not looking in the mirror. You have learned to love yourself and that's all you need to do. You can not please everybody because there will always be haters around. This world is full of hateful people they don't need a reason they just hate. Everybody is different everybody has a unique quality about themselves so I don't hate anybody I love looking at you. Just continue to be Jimin that we all love and support Thank you for the music and dance. Love you guys I support you guys and I'll let you do take care and enjoy life.
I have thought that Jimin has always been a beautiful man. It was a toxic industry standard that affected his perception of his weight and caused a dangerous diet in the early years. Same for Jin, who actually had malnutrition due to his diet. Neither one of them should've dieted. They were and are perfect as they are.
I hope fans would be more kinder and sensitive when trying to make comments with their idols,theres so much pressure when it comes to body image, with their hectic schedule we must realize they are counting on their fans that sometimes they are so eager to please them and it would discourage them or worse they will do things unnatural like not eating at all and that is so not healthy. That's If they feel they fall short of their fans expectations, They are artists and they love what their doing it's their passion but their still human they get hurt when being insulted or being make fun Of their bodies or height just be careful when commenting we love them but we need to not pressured them.
Pues es que con la presión de los conciertos y luego los conciertos cancelados por Covid, la presión por sacar éxito tras éxito, pues es obvio que su alimentación no iba hacer la adecuada, en lugar de criticar debemos apoyar.
Jimin looks so healthy and happy now days. I love those "guns" he's sporting! In my opinion, men always look better with more weight and muscle (if they are able to healthfully and safely obtain and maintain the muscle.) Go Baby Mochi, Chim-Chim! 😊👏💜💪
They are a lot of inaccuracies regarding the timeline of some things that happened. And BTS are not on an extended hiatus this year ( 2022 ). They just announced an album for thre month of june and will most probably be on a world tour in the later half of the year.
@@aquafinner1505 my immediate thought was the whole "just starve" statement on vlive ): I literally have seen that screenshot on a certain side of tumblr iykyk.. really concerned, but no surprised. unfortunately
Once Jimin said to his young self "hurry up and be me soon". He wasn't facing only his physical appearance but also his mind and his identity. Once he wanted to appear strong and manly but now he loves being delicate, pretty. He even had a fake tattoo of the bigender symbol and the ones for his filter performance (one in each hands, one masculine and the other feminine). I'm not assuming he's not cis but I just wanted to say that he went through a lot to finally understand and being himself and I'm so proud of him. I wish to be a better version of myself bcs at the moment im the worst and I can't do anything. I'm caught under a shadow and im feeling miserable. I want to be much better and living my life without being constantly sad or anxious
What you are talking about was not Jimin, but BigHit concepts! Photoshoots and MVs are not him! Jimin never struggled with identity, but with his singing voice and not feeling good enough! Jimin has always been this authentic person from the beginning; he has said how he's the same person with or without cameras rolling for their variety shows. The evolution of your concept of Jimin is a made-up world by BH.
I agree. Jimin made it clear that he didn't know who he was in the beginning. It's heartbreaking to know what he has been through but the journey ended up some place beautiful.💜
You clearly didn't understand what I meant. Jimin struggled with his persona. He went from self-hate, insecurities, negativity to self love and positivity. This has nothing to do with bighit concepts nor his personality.
@@realone2987 I understood exactly what you said and I'm hear to tell you that he was never insecure, he never hated himself and all that other junk you said! Jimin was all about perfecting his crafts and when the progress he wanted didn't come fast enough he became a little depressed and was hard on himself! You clowns think you know him, but never really listened to anything he had to say; you gather in your little Twitter gc and project onto him your own insecurities and self hate! I will not let you misjudge him on my watch!
At this time I didn't understand what he was going through because I didn't understand korean but I feel bad to not supporting him the way I was supposed as a fa, Jimin is beautiful and precious and I think those K-Beauty make him forgot we want the best for him, Jimin is perfect and shouldn't have to put so much pressure on himself but now I feel horrible
I think Jimin took the weight loss way too seriously, and actually looked undernourished. I love seeing him fleshed out and more muscular. He’s more handsome than ever!
the hyperfocus some of yall have with his weight and relating any struggle he talks abt to weight is fucking weird. he was going through so much with the long hiatus and having no schedule the pandemic and he even mentioned that he was sad at times bcs he couldn't perform to a live audience but you somehow made it abt weight and body image is fucked up!! leave him alone ffs. it's really disturbing and messed up.
Jimin has serious food and body image issues and it's sad how this industry and fans brush it off as him "trying his best". He always talks about how "fat" he looks when it's nowhere near reality.
Watching their carpool karaoke interview for the first time I had no clue why everyone was laughing and he looked so flustered. Now knowing that it was a named he grew to hate because it pointed to his 'rounding face' kind of makes me feel bad that James brought it up in the first place.
too much focus is put on weight in South Korea with these idols , this stupid reporting does not help either with the entire content being totally about Jimins weight , not what an excellent dancer and perfect vocal skills he has , would rather hear about something constructive !!
I think we are delusional if we think other BTS members do not have the same body-image mindset. HINT: whoever is in active promotion is restricting themselves. At this point as fans, I say we trust BTS as adults to manage their own health and careers, and that they are surrounded by wise and good people. As a fan, I will continue to adore them no matter how fat, thin, bald, ugly, etc etc. 💜
Those people who said that he's a pig and fat are too much. He underwent a very strict diet where he mostly doesn't eat (that's not even a proper diet routine). His members was even worried for him. Other members of BTS underwent dieting as well but not like Jimin. And because of those people who criticized his weight, Jimin felt so stressed out, depress, and was too self-conscious about his looks and weight. People are so hypocrites. They have this mental illness where they tell you what an idol should look like, basing it on their preference.
At :54 Jimin did not just say that. No way!!! he was never fat, even back then. It is sad that he thought that and others made him feel that way. :( If THAT is fat than i want so bad to be fat. I used to have a 24in waist and still felt like that wasnt small enough. Trying to get back to that, but i dont wanna slip back into bad habits. I know all to well about body image issues.
To be honest, I'm not sure videos and channels like this, dissecting and analyzing every kg lost and gained helps idols (and their managers) or their fans to obsess any less over idols' weight. Also, keep in mind that - despite cases like this where Jimin has shared *some* of his thinking and struggles - your opinion of when he's very/too thin and when "he looks healthy" is still very subjective. Point being, you don't know what's going inside their head, and someone weightloss or gain might not be the reflection of their mind you think it is. So maybe leave that kinda of analyzing to professionals and people close to them in stead of assuming this and that. (Just a friendly reminder from someone who (also) suffers from disordered eating and who have had both weight gain and loss be a sign that I wasn't coping all that well with life at that given moment.)
In south korean beauty standards are ridiculously high, have you ever noticed they apologize when they aren't wearing makeup during v lives and sometimes call themselve ugly. Jimin seems to do it a lot and yes you want to look good while in front of thousands but it isn't necessary to wear makeup 24/7. They all seem to have problems with eating and self esteem. When JK had covid he was talking about how being stuck in bed would make him gain weight. Like JK you're sick take care of yourself. It just makes me feel sad that they don't eat or think they are ugly if they aren't "perfect".
Jimin journey is really motivating because it developed from self hatred , insecurities and negativity to self love and positivity. We often start our weight loss journey as self hatred of our body leading vicious cycle and get stuck and deteriorate ourself.
But , Bts taught us by LOVE YOURSELF message to work on us . Jimin is a big part of it.
We truly love our Jiminie for being too inspirational and comfort us .💜💜💜💜💜
Wow so much likes , thanks . I hope we can find happiness in whatever form we are . I think our happiness and well being matters the most not some crazy standards.
Also recently I got to know , Jimin eats healthy and go on frequent diets to maintain his weight because as ballet or for his performance extra weight cause some hindrances so I think he thinks maintain as required. I think we all agree for dancing and performance weight some has effect on it. As long as he is happy and healthy, we should also be happy for him. 😊

80% of us do nothing...however Park Jimin didn't hesitate.
He is fantastic!
Jimin's story is one of the most extreme that I've heard. I've been a fan for almost four years now and I had heard about his extreme dieting. When I first saw them perform in 2019 Jimin seemed very happy on stage. It's great to see how passionate he's become about "Love Myself" even to the point of passing on the message during I-Land. It's not easy to hear about the different pressures and criticisms they've faced. A lot of the BTS members including Jimin have said that they started going to the gym more during the pandemic and the work they've put in shows. The enthusiasm that Jimin showed for it in an interview sounds like he's really felt good about it and not pressured into it. When I saw PTD day's 1&2 in Las Vegas. He looked healthy, happy, and was taking every opportunity he could to show he was enjoying himself even to the point of saying "I'm not ready for the next song, I need to hear ARMY scream first." All I could ever ask from any of them is that they're happy and healthy.
Eating disorders are very serious. I am so proud he has the support needed and his brothers and family. There is too much pressure for perfection. Jimin looks fantastic.
He looks amazing now, I hope he’s happy within himself 💜 I was anti worried over Dynamite era tbh, in the practise video he was insanely skinny. Its hard to not slip back into restricting, I know from personality experience but he seems more confident and happy these days 💜
yea, me too. i remember watching one of their interviews during butter/dynamite promotions. i recall seeing jimin's arms realllyyy skinny and it worried me a lot. it made me so sad to see what all of that hate from people, including himself, and insecurites had done to him. seeing him gain weight and getting back to how he looked during debut makes me so happy. I love a healthy Jimin but I just hope he knows that he doesn't have to look perfect for us. Whether he's buff or thin, it doesn't matter bc true fans would love and support him either way. As long as he's not putting him or his body in any sort of danger, then I'm happy.
Красавец ЧИМИН ! Не мучай себя так диетами !❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
С дебюта группы, Чимин, самый накачанный был , бицепсы, крепкие бёдра и икры ! 😍😍😍💪💪💪
Im glad his feeling better with in himself. He is adorable and a caring soul
It always would break my heart to see how Jimin never thought he was good enough, I wish he could see how much we love him and are proud of him. In their last concert I was so happy to see Jimin in a good place, he seemed happy and confident. 💜💜💜
Really like the part Jin and RM having meal with Jimin, you can feel how they love and care about him🥹 Love u all, you guys always the best💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Wow!! I am reading many of the comments left, and let me just say that I was truly moved by the stories shared, and the concern and support for Jimin. I myself honestly because I'm a BTS fan in general I have always thought the boys look great, some looks suit some members more than others, but all I have ever cared is about their health. To all the fans that throughout the years have made their concern over this issue I thank you so much.
Thank you for this video, I hope a lot of people understand now why so many fans are so protective of him.
Jimin was and is always perfect as he is. He didn't and still doesn't need to change or worry about his looks/weight/height,... JUST BE YOURSELF, JIMIN, THEN YOU GET REAL FANS WHO ACCEPT U HOW U ARE!
I cried while watching this it broke my heart 🤧 I hope he understands that he's perfect in everyway
Ranking people is an unforgivable thing to do especially to a young teen. Rating beauty only by what your eyes see, is shallow, unrealisitc and leads to nothing but self-loathing and insecurities. True beauty shines from the inside out. Jimin is a beautiful person on the inside, and it glows to the outside. As he aged, his looks grew to match what he is on the inside. It was always there.
I agree 100%💜👍
Also when I found that video of jimin calling himself a "fat pig " I cried because he was only a teenager and he shouldn't have even been worried about those things at that age
He’s such a sweet soul. Breaks my heart to know he went through so much suffering
I love my Jimin and I’m happy that he finally understood that he can reach out and get help no matter what the problem may be. He really looks happier and healthier. Stay strong my Jimin you are not alone. Love my Jimin 💜💜💜💜💜
jimin your a wonderful person. lovely…adorable. ..love yourself. we love you💜💜💜
I feel like we forget that they are people too. Just like you and I. A lot of other women, men, and everything in between have gone through the same thing. His story is very motivating and inspiring. Like one of their most popular album says, "Love Yourself!" 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Mi vida, todo por lo que tuvo que pasar 😭 me alegra tanto que ahora haya encontrado el balance que necesitaba, se ve mucho más tranquilo y seguro de sí mismo
YESSSS I WAS WAITING FOR THIS ONE! Your editing, subbing, and just plethora of information has improved so much and I am so happy to see this one bc I relate to Jimin's self-hate struggles and feelings of not being good enough. I hope they rest a lot
Jimin is best in every era ❤️😘😘😘💜 love him soo much
This video just broke my heart. Jimin is beautiful in everything he does. He should have never been made to feel the way he did. I have always loved the way Jimin looked in all of his evolutions throughout the groups career but never knew how severe his dieting became at certain points. I wish that I could've been a positive voice in the comments for him to combat the toxicity that he endured. Jimin I purple you. #JiminIsPerfect
Don’t want to point fingers but at this point i think Jungkook is the one that’s being obsessed with loosing weight. His live in Vegas he talked about getting thinner. Also they vlive with jimin, V & JHope; Jimin was apologizing for eating (although it was a big meal and it was late) and not going to excersice with JK. I can’t believe that they don’t have nutritionist and therapists that travel with them. Jeez the stress they are under it’s a miracle they are not all suffering from depression and/or anxiety.
I have always found Jimin beautiful regardless of weight. I hope he can continue to be happy and healthy. I will always love Jimin.
He is pressured by his group mates too..I cried when I heard them saying things about his weight. They need to receive therapy as well to know how to encourage him to not dive in unhealthy behaviors to loose weight.
Watching again good old days Ripped Jimin is awesome
Hope he and the rest of the boys realize they dont have to look a certain way or be a certain weight or just try to be perfect in general. Army loves them no matter what
Jimin is my favourite member and always will be. We have similar struggles and his song Lie really helped me realise I wasn't alone with the struggle of perfection etc. I love him so much he is so strong for going through so much, poor boy didn't deserve it
It truly is not easy for them at all. Being under spotlight at all times. Trying to be and look the best for fans. Those death threats made are ridiculous. All of them look good and should continue to look good healthily and happily. Glad Jimin is happier now.
The blood sweat and tears era scared me the most. I remember the members had gone on vlive. There was a massage chair and Jimin sat in it and it was like his body was swallowed by the chair. You could feel the vibe in the room was down because he looked so fragile and thin. I'm so happy he's not that small anymore.
Jimin is so handsome and the most important: Talented, awesome, spectacular, great , lovely ,sweet, UNIQUE Why he is worry about physical appearance.? He knows we love him 😍🤞🏻🤞🏻😘😍😍❤❤💜🐣 When he is going to understand he is SO HANDSOME, BEAU, BELLISISMO, GORGEOUS,STUNNING 😍😍❤❤💜🐣
I could never be an idol. Having to be perfect in my looks and appearance, getting hate from fans because I'm not pretty enough for them... people assuming I'm lazy because my body doesn't look like a goddess 24/7. These fans have no idea how much their words effect these idols 🥺
THIS IS HOW A BECAME AN ARMY I WAS FEELING VERY TOO CONCIOUS ABOUT MY WEIGHT FEELING DEPRESS AND ONE DAY THROUG YOU TUBE I FOUND BTS AND SAW ONE OF THE LOVE YOUR SELF CONCERTS AND JIMIN IMPRESSED ME THE MOST SO I STARTED DIGGING MORE ABOUT HIM I LERNED ALL ABOUT HIS STRUGLES WITH HIS WEIGHT AND THIS IS HOW I BECAME TO HEAL MY SELF WITH HIM AND THAT'S WHY HE IS MY BIAS . I PURPLE HIM
I feel jimin in so many levels right now I'm struggling about my weight and how I see myself
I always go out scrutinising my face and imperfections,
Remember, there is nobody like YOU! You are a one-off.
A bit of extra weight you can lose by dancing to your favorite music...
Go wild girl ......just dance your negative thoughts away
#Perfection is boring
Jimin always look so good 😍❤ from his start to now 🤗✨❤ he is my perfect bias 😍💜💜✨
It’s truly heartbreaking but I have so much respect for him. So much pressure and he along with the rest handle it with grace. Junk in is perfect and they are outstanding human beings.
jimin del 2013 es mi debilidad lo amooo
HE IS CALLED AN ANGEL FOR A REASON
wow jimin looks good in that white outfit on the thumbnail, like a nice and strong guy, idk just good looking in general 👍
Well, its all because of his country he came from the standard of beauty is high and kpop rules is strict he put alot of effort and determination to be become one of the biggest boy group In kpop industry. He deserved so much respect and not hatred.
I also hate how they rank idols by looks and pressuring them to through these extreme diets but I am glad they recovered especially for Jimin because that was so sad and heartbreaking and hat h🎩 m and the other idols are ent through. 💜💜💜💜💜💜🖤💗🌍
Seeing all this i am realising that us ARMY are sometimes so toxic for our idols , jugging them by weight, looks etc . They all are precious and i hope we should all love them equally coz they are BTS . They have healed millions of people by their songs , words , actions. Lets not hurt them and try to better for them, for us and the people we love. BTS BORAHAE💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
That's what I was always worried especially during 2020- 22 he was extremely loosing weight rapidly I couldn't content my worries and I also spoke about it a few times in many social media platforms also got into fight with a few fellows 😅 but they're just looking out for Jiminie so it's fine, but now that he's getting better hope it keeps getting better 😔😔
They all had issues we were told bit by bit a little here an there they each shared and I have no clue if they read any of our encouraging words that thousands of army's wrote to each one of them but they have come a long way and are truly CONFIDENT and CAPABLE they are world wide super stars they have learned a lot and I am sure they now know they are loved by millions while they encouraged us I think they also encouraged themselves so am very proud of them an the growth they have lived and are much more mature now THANK YOU BTS!!!!!
Omg Jimin sweetheart, don’t ever call yourself a pig or ugly. You are so beautiful. Even when you get old and bald, you will still be beautiful. Eat well and stay happy please.
This video has inspired so much I can't thank you enough dude 😍
The fact that I was wishing for you to upload this and it finally happened 🥹🫰🏼
STOP IM LITERALLY GONNA CRY i love him and im so glad hes doing better :')
Cudna istota z rozterkami jak wszyscy młodzi ludzie. Jimin jest męski.
jimin, you are so perfect please dont try loose weight to look better or anything u are so handsome and cutee i love you we all do
Jimin was perfect the way he was if you ask me.
Never put a price or a mark on someone's body and their beauty as the negativity will eat away at their soul and its truly unfair what bodyshaming has done to some people and how normal people think it is to be able to do it without themselves facing the repercussions and letting others feel pain, torture and suffering due to a few words someone has said to the. Its truly disheartening 😢💔
JIMIN HAS ALWAYS BEEN GOOD LOOKING IN MY OPINION👊👍
@NatureLover I also feel like Jimin and Jungkook are very scrutinized. They were always, and probably still are, being told how their body needed to look. They were also told something like "I liked how you were 3 months ago" or "You looked better like this". It's horrible. I've been through something like this myself, but I was teased and bullied a lot by how "skinny" I was. It feels horrible, makes you feel insecure, and it's hard to tell if you're actually what people say you are, or if they're just messing around with you. I encourage people to not body shame or to intentionally hurt someone by saying mean things about their appearance. Let this be a warning because karma is real.
he's gorgeous though. thankfully he's got so much support from BTS members 💜
2016 Fire era Jimin is back. He looks healthy now
There is another time, in my opinion, he was on a diet again. His live performance FILTER. I love this song and the performance is amazing! But it hurts to see how thin he is at that moment. I hope he’ll stay healthy as he is right now and never would torture himself with diets ever again
I can't remember what it's from now but I always think about when jin called jimin a pig and I feel so bad for him
Thank you for making this.
Honestly, Jimin would look gorgeous at any weight, but I'm glad he isn't dieting anymore and is healthy ❤️.
All the people watching this video, please, seek therapy! Stop talking about other people's weight and stop misdiagnosing him! He is a grown person and in many vlives has said that he doesn't like diets, he doesn't do diets. He encourages a healthy lifestyle, taking care of your body and loving your body. He has always been athletic and lean. Hello, he is a professional dancer!! He has also said that he knows when his body feels and looks the best for dancing, for more beautiful dance lines. Literally leave him alone. Stop projecting your own insecurities on him, sorry that you think he does extreme diets (which was actually mistranslated and misinterpreted), he actually stated that he ate one meal a day (intermittent fasting) for 10 days, do you think company would allow 1 meal in 10 days?? Do you think his doctors/trainers would allow that?? Get up from your computer screens and stop watching videos full of misinformation!!!
👍💜
And, please, stop commenting in Jimin’s vlives or weverse for him to eat or eat more or any other pitying comments, he already once addressed them and told you that he eats healthy and delicious meals and fans shouldn’t worry about him!
👏👏👏👏👏
YES
in life the most important thing is to feel healthy and happy with who we are. Thats all.
Jimin, just a word for you from a concerned fan. You should not listen to what cruel people have to say as they are not looking in the mirror. You have learned to love yourself and that's all you need to do. You can not please everybody because there will always be haters around. This world is full of hateful people they don't need a reason they just hate. Everybody is different everybody has a unique quality about themselves so I don't hate anybody I love looking at you. Just continue to be Jimin that we all love and support Thank you for the music and dance. Love you guys I support you guys and I'll let you do take care and enjoy life.
I have thought that Jimin has always been a beautiful man. It was a toxic industry standard that affected his perception of his weight and caused a dangerous diet in the early years. Same for Jin, who actually had malnutrition due to his diet.
Neither one of them should've dieted. They were and are perfect as they are.
Por favor tradução de português o jimin é muito lindo que boca mais linda que ele tem
I will love them.. Even if he lose or gain wt, with makeup or without makeup...They are Precious 🤗💜
I hope fans would be more kinder and sensitive when trying to make comments with their idols,theres so much pressure when it comes to body image, with their hectic schedule we must realize they are counting on their fans that sometimes they are so eager to please them and it would discourage them or worse they will do things unnatural like not eating at all and that is so not healthy. That's If they feel they fall short of their fans expectations,
They are artists and they love what their doing it's their passion but their still human they get hurt when being insulted or being make fun Of their bodies or height just be careful when commenting we love them but we need to not pressured them.
Jimin such a cutie
omg!! LOSE weight! Not loose weight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! drives me insane= 2 totally different words and Jimin is PERFECTION!
Pues es que con la presión de los conciertos y luego los conciertos cancelados por Covid, la presión por sacar éxito tras éxito, pues es obvio que su alimentación no iba hacer la adecuada, en lugar de criticar debemos apoyar.
Jimin 🥰🥰🥰
Jimin looks so healthy and happy now days. I love those "guns" he's sporting! In my opinion, men always look better with more weight and muscle (if they are able to healthfully and safely obtain and maintain the muscle.) Go Baby Mochi, Chim-Chim! 😊👏💜💪
Tbh I prefer really skinny people 🤷🏽♂️
Jimin always trying to please Armys...sometimes too much. I hope he realized that the most important thing is his health.
Eat well jimine. U r amazing the way u r 💜
thank you for making this, i cant even imagine how much time it took
In that intro picture, you know they all would be cracking up at the "dieting" one bc his arms look short
They are a lot of inaccuracies regarding the timeline of some things that happened. And BTS are not on an extended hiatus this year ( 2022 ). They just announced an album for thre month of june and will most probably be on a world tour in the later half of the year.
could you do a video on a txt member? maybe yeonjun or beomgyu?
They’ve always been the same weight tho what’s the point
@@thiccaf6541 beomgyu has said a couple of suspicious things. txt in general talk a lot about dieting.
@@aquafinner1505 my immediate thought was the whole "just starve" statement on vlive ): I literally have seen that screenshot on a certain side of tumblr iykyk..
really concerned, but no surprised. unfortunately
@@vip5hawol-deehirota there are whole threads on twitter too 😭
ngl its a bit scary as well as sad. i really hope those boys are doing ok
@@aquafinner1505 yes, there too ! 😮💨
Love my little mochi❤
Once Jimin said to his young self "hurry up and be me soon". He wasn't facing only his physical appearance but also his mind and his identity. Once he wanted to appear strong and manly but now he loves being delicate, pretty. He even had a fake tattoo of the bigender symbol and the ones for his filter performance (one in each hands, one masculine and the other feminine). I'm not assuming he's not cis but I just wanted to say that he went through a lot to finally understand and being himself and I'm so proud of him. I wish to be a better version of myself bcs at the moment im the worst and I can't do anything. I'm caught under a shadow and im feeling miserable. I want to be much better and living my life without being constantly sad or anxious
What you are talking about was not Jimin, but BigHit concepts! Photoshoots and MVs are not him! Jimin never struggled with identity, but with his singing voice and not feeling good enough! Jimin has always been this authentic person from the beginning; he has said how he's the same person with or without cameras rolling for their variety shows. The evolution of your concept of Jimin is a made-up world by BH.
I agree. Jimin made it clear that he didn't know who he was in the beginning. It's heartbreaking to know what he has been through but the journey ended up some place beautiful.💜
You clearly didn't understand what I meant. Jimin struggled with his persona. He went from self-hate, insecurities, negativity to self love and positivity. This has nothing to do with bighit concepts nor his personality.
@@realone2987
I understood exactly what you said and I'm hear to tell you that he was never insecure, he never hated himself and all that other junk you said! Jimin was all about perfecting his crafts and when the progress he wanted didn't come fast enough he became a little depressed and was hard on himself! You clowns think you know him, but never really listened to anything he had to say; you gather in your little Twitter gc and project onto him your own insecurities and self hate! I will not let you misjudge him on my watch!
At this time I didn't understand what he was going through because I didn't understand korean but I feel bad to not supporting him the way I was supposed as a fa, Jimin is beautiful and precious and I think those K-Beauty make him forgot we want the best for him, Jimin is perfect and shouldn't have to put so much pressure on himself but now I feel horrible
now he's perfect the way he is healthy and happy
I think Jimin took the weight loss way too seriously, and actually looked undernourished. I love seeing
him fleshed out and more muscular. He’s more handsome than ever!
the hyperfocus some of yall have with his weight and relating any struggle he talks abt to weight is fucking weird.
he was going through so much with the long hiatus and having no schedule the pandemic and he even mentioned that he was sad at times bcs he couldn't perform to a live audience but you somehow made it abt weight and body image is fucked up!! leave him alone ffs. it's really disturbing and messed up.
Jimin has serious food and body image issues and it's sad how this industry and fans brush it off as him "trying his best". He always talks about how "fat" he looks when it's nowhere near reality.
Watching their carpool karaoke interview for the first time I had no clue why everyone was laughing and he looked so flustered. Now knowing that it was a named he grew to hate because it pointed to his 'rounding face' kind of makes me feel bad that James brought it up in the first place.
too much focus is put on weight in South Korea with these idols , this stupid reporting does not help either with the entire content being totally about Jimins weight , not what an excellent dancer and perfect vocal skills he has , would rather hear about something constructive !!
Will people ever stop bringing up the diet thing about him. That was years ago. Let it alone.
I think we are delusional if we think other BTS members do not have the same body-image mindset. HINT: whoever is in active promotion is restricting themselves. At this point as fans, I say we trust BTS as adults to manage their own health and careers, and that they are surrounded by wise and good people. As a fan, I will continue to adore them no matter how fat, thin, bald, ugly, etc etc. 💜
전세계 도 보고 있어요 지민 너무 열심히 하고 있어요 천사 같아요 사랑해
Those people who said that he's a pig and fat are too much. He underwent a very strict diet where he mostly doesn't eat (that's not even a proper diet routine). His members was even worried for him. Other members of BTS underwent dieting as well but not like Jimin. And because of those people who criticized his weight, Jimin felt so stressed out, depress, and was too self-conscious about his looks and weight. People are so hypocrites. They have this mental illness where they tell you what an idol should look like, basing it on their preference.
can you do one with namjoon pls
he had changes in his body too
At :54 Jimin did not just say that. No way!!! he was never fat, even back then. It is sad that he thought that and others made him feel that way. :( If THAT is fat than i want so bad to be fat. I used to have a 24in waist and still felt like that wasnt small enough. Trying to get back to that, but i dont wanna slip back into bad habits. I know all to well about body image issues.
To be honest, I'm not sure videos and channels like this, dissecting and analyzing every kg lost and gained helps idols (and their managers) or their fans to obsess any less over idols' weight. Also, keep in mind that - despite cases like this where Jimin has shared *some* of his thinking and struggles - your opinion of when he's very/too thin and when "he looks healthy" is still very subjective. Point being, you don't know what's going inside their head, and someone weightloss or gain might not be the reflection of their mind you think it is. So maybe leave that kinda of analyzing to professionals and people close to them in stead of assuming this and that. (Just a friendly reminder from someone who (also) suffers from disordered eating and who have had both weight gain and loss be a sign that I wasn't coping all that well with life at that given moment.)
In south korean beauty standards are ridiculously high, have you ever noticed they apologize when they aren't wearing makeup during v lives and sometimes call themselve ugly. Jimin seems to do it a lot and yes you want to look good while in front of thousands but it isn't necessary to wear makeup 24/7. They all seem to have problems with eating and self esteem. When JK had covid he was talking about how being stuck in bed would make him gain weight. Like JK you're sick take care of yourself. It just makes me feel sad that they don't eat or think they are ugly if they aren't "perfect".
