BTS has so many love letters to ARMY and we treasure each and every one of them. Closer Than This is the most recent one and it's just as precious to us as the others. Jimin has another ARMY song called 'Letter' that he placed as a hidden track on the phyical copies of his 'Face' album. It's also really beautiful. ARMY songs can range from soft and sweet to powerful and punchy or even with a hip hop edge to them. They've said I love you in countless ways and I'm sure there are more to come. Seeing all of the old clips of BTS really warmed our hearts. Jimin has so much love for his brothers and us.

First, I really like your BTS reactions. As far as official music video, I’m not sure what’s going on because you’re the second reactor I’ve seen that’s had this problem. The actual lyrics are slightly different from what you watched and at the very beginning, they are discussing how Jimin wants this to be a fan song. In reading the lyrics, I think most ARMYs would agree that it’s also to the other members of BTS. the visuals are all well known moments to ARMY, so most of us were in tears as we watched this. Jimin’s solo works are amazing! He was the first Korean (Asian in general) solo artist to hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 earlier this year with his song “Like Crazy”. There is a music video which is sung in a combination of Korean and English (Konglish) and there is also an all English version that he performed on The Jimmy Fallon Show. He also released another MV for “Set Me Free Part 2”. Both of these songs are from his EP “Face”. The songs reflect the feelings that Jimin felt during the pandemic. He was depressed and admitted that he began to rely on alcohol too much during that period of time. Great music! He’s had other solo songs that are all incredible. Lie, Serendipity & Promise should get you started after you explore his Face album. Please watch The Guide to BTS: The Bangtan 7 by Taylor Mari. You’ll appreciate so much more if you understand more about who they are as a group and as individuals. Borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Hi Sandy, Thank you for the kind words. I wish I knew why I was having trouble with the subtitles :/ It's wild to think that famous people like Jimin can still get depressed like us and fall into the same vices. I'm glad he has a musical outlet to unburden himself with, he is a great performer. You may have notice, I did end up watching the Guide to BTS, I'm really backed up on comments lol.

Jimin was the second Asian Soloist to hit No. 1 on the HOT100 but the first that debuted there. The song "Sukiyaki" (not the original title but the title the song is known for) by Kyu Sakamoto also toped this chart in 1963 (the song is originally from 1961)

As a few have noted this is Jimin’s “goodbye for now” song to army as he just enlisted in the MS service along with Jk on Dec 12. And yes, as you noticed he had a hot 100 celebration cake near the end of the mv. he had the first #1 hot 100 of a SKorean solo artist earlier this year when he released his solo EP “Face”. Would love if you’d react to that. It’s 4 songs, 1 short interlude plus a hidden track (only on the physical copy) for fans and an all English version of the title track , Like Crazy. He did a live performance of the hidden track during this years Festa (BTS 10th anniversary) which you can find on BTS KZitem channel, it’s called “Dear Army”

Ahhh....my bias, Jiminie! It was his voice that called me to BTS. It was their Samsung commercial with them singing Life Goes On. You should watch that just for yourself when you got a couple of extra minutes. He has an extremely unique singing voice and we all say that he's not from this world. He has some beautiful solo songs and he's also got some beautiful collabs with other artists. Oh, and he was featured with other artists this year in a song called Angel Pt. 2 from the most recent Fast & the Furious movie. I haven't read all the comments below, so someone most likely already told you this: Once you Jim-in, you can't Jim-out. He snatches everyone, doesn't matter how you identify, he'll get you. 💜💜💜

The Official MV suddenly lost all its captions overnight. They look like they might finally be back. Other’s have talked about what this song is about, it’s not a song for the general public - it’s for the fans and beautiful written. Thank you for appreciating his voice. He does have a very unique voice that can be, you probably noticed, angelic. It’s contributes significantly to the BTS songs. I love this song for what it is, it’s catchy, upbeat, and very personal and emotional. It is pop, which even though I’m ARMY, isn’t my fav genre - although that is more Western pop. CTT does have some amazing music, lyrics, and all Jimin’s special touches (he wrote and composed this song, with a production team, as he did his debut album). I would starting with his two music vids - sadly he only got two, I would have loved ones for all songs! - Like Crazy and Set Me Free pt 2 (there’s not really a SMFp1, but Yoongi had a Set Me Free on his mixtape, not really related). His whole album is as is usual for Jimin, very personal, emotional, and has a deep story line about his experiences/emotions during the pandemic. It’s my fav of the solo work (with Yoongi’s a very very close 2nd), although all of them have amazing solo work as you saw with JK - you should check out all the others as well. I prefer music written by the artist that is deep and touches the emotions, which FACE (Jimin’s album) and D-DAY (Yoongi’s album this year) both do, so they are top ones.

Also I would highly recommend Japanese songs like 'Your eyes tell', where you can dive into all vocal line, and meaningful songs like 'Magic shop' (life performance), 'Spring Day' (with explanation because without knowing references in MV or lyrics it would be hard to understand why this particular song is so important for ARMY. I hope you will enjoy it. Thank you for your reactions and thank you for actually replying to people's comments.

Thanks for the reaction. If you went to settings, you would have been able to cut on the subtitles. The Billboard #1 Hot 100 cake celebration was for Jimin hitting #1 on the Hot 100 in April. Closer than this is a song although meant for his fans and BTS, can actually be enjoyed and related to by anyone. However, if you don't know the context, such as in the beginning he said it was a fan song, it could be confusing. If you want to listen to other Jimin music, he has an EP/Album called FACE: Like Crazy, Set Me Free Pt2, Face-off, Alone. (Composer, Lyricist, instrumental credits) and a Hidden Track for his fans: Letter/Dear Army. BTS songs: Lie (he co-wrote) and Serendipity, Filter, Friends (he co-wrote), Tony Montana. His first written Army gift: Promise. Holiday songs: Christmas I Love you, and Christmas Day. Collabs: Vibe, Angel pt.1 &2, With you, Who are you. There may be more but I can't think of them at this time.
