So, it wasn't surprising that following BTS Jimin's impact on Samsung, the brand sought more collaborations with the K-pop idols.
In August 2020, the brand announced that it would be releasing BTS-themed gadgets. At the time, marketing experts said that Samsung didn't just collaborate with BTS to boost their gadget sales. Instead, they regarded the collaboration as an investment.
All seven BTS members were once iPhone users but they shifted to Samsung since they became ambassadors for the brand.
In the past, Jin used an iPhone 11, while RM and J-Hope used iPhone X.
BTS Suga and Jimin were once iPhone 11 Pro users, and BTS V and Jungkook used iPhone 11 Pro Max.
Other than Samsung, BTS is also an ambassador for a slew of other brands like Coway, Chilsung, Shinhan Card, Good Smile Company, Louis Vuitton, Lotte Duty-Free, Amorepacific, BT21 x Among Us, Hyundai, FILA, XYLITOL, CASETiFy, Samsonite Red, Seoul Tourism, Jamie Wander, BT21 x The Crè me Shop, and BT21 x Tamagotchi.
