BTS Jimin Surpasses 100 Million Views on TikTok
The co-member of Jin, Jungkook, J-Hope, Suga, V and RM made waves on TikTok again with a clip of him dancing to the beat of the group's chart-topping hit called "Boy with Luv." BTS member Jimin even used the adorable bobblehead filter, which made it appear funnier.
The said video, which garnered more than 100 million views already, was uploaded on the official TikTok channel of BTS on April 18, 2020. In other words, it took 11 months before it finally achieved the said feat.
Aside from surpassing the 100 million views mark, the said video of BTS member Jimin also amassed a whooping 10.4 million likes, more than 194,000 comment and more than 212,000 shares. So, it comes as no surprise that it was named as the most viewed solo video from the official TikTok channel.
Not only that because BTS Jimin also became the first-ever K-pop idol to achieve 100 million views on the popular video-sharing website. The personal unique hashtag of the "Dynamite" singer has, previously, surpassed 35 billion views on TikTok.

BTS Jimin Shares Details About His Trainee Days
Meanwhile, Jimin opened up about his "harsh" past when he was still not part of BTS. During a recent appearance on tvN's "You Quiz on The Block," the BTS member divulged how challenging life was during his trainee days.
BTS member Jimin shared he did not live in the dormitory before. At the time, the "Boy. With Luv" singer, who come from Busan, did not know what to do. He even divulged that he would sit in whenever Jungkook or V dring their vocal lessons and practice what he learned later at night.
Jimin said he would practice until 4 a.m. and wake up at around 6:30 a.m. to go to school. Though it was hard for him back then, the BTS member is happy that he has been reaping the fruits of his hard work.
The co-member of Jin, Jungkook, J-Hope, Suga, V, and RM also revealed that he calls his father once a month and told him that he might not be able to make it until the end. Jimin, then, convinced his dad to not get disappointed with him as he will surely make it somewhere if he fails to become part of BTS.
Jimin said he endured all the predicaments and quandaries he faced along the way. Despite all his doubts and confusion, he just continued to practice hard so he could be part of BTS. The K-pop idol, then, learned to acknowledge the fact that all of them are imperfect people who can do better if they work together as a group.
