"Wave spreads beautifully, finding its own flow despite wounds and distortions from a smallest scratch.
The face of unwavering effort despite repeated falls and pain."
I sat here in front of this computer to watch the premier of the Set Me Free Pt 2 MV on March 17, 2023 and let me tell you... my eyes about fell outta my head. I gasped. I cried. My chin dropped to the floor. I may have drooled, I don't know, prolly so. I don't think I took another breath until the song was over. I cried again.
The timeline went insane:
And then we had to wait until March 24 for Like Crazy and the rest of the album. And when we got it, it was absolutely exquisite. The anguish, the realness, the tenderness... changed the way I viewed Jimin. And in the year following the release of this very personal collection of songs, he showed us his album-making journey in the form of a documentary. I don't have adequate words to say how proud I am of him.
As of today, Like Crazy is now the longest charting song of all-time for a Kpop soloist on Spotify Global (357 days and still charting).
Jimin uploaded a video of him and Jungkook to twitter:
On the 26th of January 2016, Jk uploaded a small snippet of a song he was covering.
•Day 100
And on the 15th of February of 2016, Jk uploaded the entire song Nothing Like Us and noted to listen to the lyrics as they were expressing what he wanted to say:
In Korean culture, parents celebrate 100 days after a child is born. This is to indicate that the child made it through the first vulnerable phase in their life. In the same manner, the 100 days are celebrated by Korean couples.
And this is what Jk had to say 100 days after the 8th of November of 2015:
There's nothing like us
There's nothing like you and me
Together through the storm
There's nothing like us
There's nothing like you and me together, oh
•Day 366 (1 year)
On 08/11/2016, a year later, Jimin posted another video of them:
•Day 732 (2 years)
On Oct. 28, 2017, Jungkook treated Jimin to a trip to Tokyo. It was because of this trip, that Jungkook released gcfTokyo on Nov. 08, 2017.
youtube
A fan used the images in the video and was able to determine the hotel and room jikook stayed at. It was room number 1108.
The video also used the song There For You by Troye Sivan:
Boy, I'm holdin' onto something
Won't let go of you for nothing
I'm runnin', runnin' just to keep my hands on you
There was a time that I was so blue
What I got to do to show you?
I'm runnin', runnin' just to keep my hands on you
Day 811
On the 26th of January 2018, in a Japanese fancafe, Jimin gifted Jungkook a drawing of a set of champagne glasses and a bottle. Note the details of the glasses.
•Day 900
On the 25th of April 2018, a day before the 900 day milestone, Jimin had a vlive where it was obvious he wasn't alone in the room. He kept looking to the side, laughing shyly and explained:
After he said this, you can hear someone whisper, "Jimin."
Day 1000
On August 3rd 2018, Jk posted a selfie while they were all filming BV3:
During BV3, jikook were able to look around the city alone, and have a boat date under the moonlight.
Day 1013
As you all may know 10:13 is also known as Jimin ssi, or Jimin time. It only makes sense that this day would be special to jikook too.
On the 16th of August 2018, Jimin tweeted a series of 3 tweets:
Jungkook was the only member that appeared in the photos with Jimin. It is also interesting to note the 2 butterfly temporary tattoos he had on his hand.
This is the same time when they had the photoshoot with the inflatable unicorn:
The next day, Jimin uploaded a tweet with the caption "Love Ya", and one of the photos was him and Jk.
•Day 1141
On the 22nd of December 2018, when fans uploaded their selfies on fancafe, the fans let Jk know that Jimin had uploaded his own:
This prompted Jk to type "JIMINNNN" and he signed off. He later uploaded a song that he stopped at 1:18:
You take my mind away
When you touch me that way
This place, your face
It gets hard to breathe
I know you're feeling me now
You're all I see
Almost like we're dreaming
•Day 1394
On the 1st of September 2019, Jk made 2 tweets. One in which uploaded a snippet of Decalcamonia, which he also ended on 1:18:
•Day 1500
On the 16th of Dec 2019, Jimin posted a good night tweet:
The time he uploaded this was at 1:50.
•Day 2300
On Feb 22, 2022, Jk uploaded a story on insta where he is in a car, listening to So Good by Joan. The story was labeled 23:08 even though he uploaded it at 1:24 am.
You and me
Got a lotta tension, not even to mention
Ooh, that night, just two weeks ago
It was half past ten
Thinking about living, suddenly when you walked it
You took my breath away
•Day 2315
On March 10, 2022, during the Permission to Dance Concert, Jimin used the 2315 numbers and stated the following:
2315 days had passed since November 8, 2015.
•Day 2545
On the 26th of October 2022, Jk uploaded a photo of himself while he was in Qatar. He uploaded the photo at 11:08 Korea time and, 5:08 Qatar time.
•Day 2643
On the 2nd of February 2023, Jimin answered a question on weverse at exactly 23:08. The question is now deleted.
•Day 2684
During Jungkook hosted a series of lives on White Day, 14th of March 2022. His first live was started at 8:11 pm:
During these lives, Jk changed to various outfits and had an extensive playlist. One of the songs that was included was There For You.
•Day 2855
On the 1st of September 2023, Jk hosted a short live to thank the fans for being present with him during so many birthdays. He ended his live quickly and it lasted 8:56 minutes:
My impressions
Based on Korean customs, celebrating different day milestones is typical in a Korean couple.
While some may think that jikook started dating on the 8th of November 2015, I think that's when they decided to be intimate with each other.
I feel like a jikook kiss had already happened since the last time Jimin asked Jk for a kiss publicly was in September 2015 for Jk's birthday. From there, one can only think that things proceeded quite quickly.
I think that in recent years, we have observed less mentions of 1108 because of BTS' popularity and so many fans expecting something from jikook.
It's possible that jikook has decided to not make these milestones known like they did before, but every now and then, they still reference that number. Who knows when they will do it again.
The year started with the announcement that Jimin had been appointed as the Global Brand Ambassador for Christian Dior (17/01). The occasion was marked with six Awesome magazine covers and the Dior Fashion Show in Paris (20/01). The fashion establishment was blown away by the response to Jimin's participation in the show.
The same month Jimin released Vibe (13/01) , a dream collaboration with his long time musical hero Taeyang from Big Bang.
youtube
This was both artists first solo hit on the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 76.
February 2023
Jimin did a live on 03/02 in which he confirmed that his solo music, although a little delayed, was likely to come out in March 2023.
On 21/02, Big Hit announced that FACE would be released on 24/03/23. The next day they published the countdown schedule and on the 23/02 the tracklist for the album.
March 2023
On 02/03, Jimin was named Ambassador for Tiffany & Co which he wore spectacularly in his photoshoot for Vogue that month.
On 06/03, Soundcloud super track Promise along with Jimin's yuletide gift to ARMY, Christmas Love were added to Jimin's Spotify profile. The era of streaming Jimin's profile had begun.
From then on, everything started speeding towards the release of FACE. The Hardware and Software images came out.
Set Me Free Pt 2 exploded into the world on 17/03. Nobody saw it coming and it caused a furore on social media. It was a clear statement of intent. I am here to stay and I am here to slay. It debuted at No.30 on the Billboard Hot 100.
youtube
FACE was released on 24/03 along with the Like Crazy MV. Speaking for myself Like Crazy blew me away. Jimin set out to make a statement with that song and I will always be proud to be the fan of such an honest and brave artist.
youtube
With the release of FACE we also discovered that hidden on the record was a very special song, Letter, in which Jungkook sings background vocals.
youtube
That last week of March saw Jimin appeared on the Jimmy Fallon Show with a live performance of Like Crazy.
In the next 9 days, he gave comeback performances on MCountdown, Music Bank and Inkiagayo. He came live to thank ARMY for turning up to his shows. He won awards. He appeared on the radio, on the entertainment shows Beat Coin, Ddeun Ddeun and Pixid. He even did fan meetings.
April 2023
On 01/04 Jimin gave an unforgettable acoustic rendition of Like Crazy live on Lee Mujin Service April Fools Edition.
youtube
And then on 03/04, Jimin made history. The first South Korean to ever make No.1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and the first Asian Artist to do so in 60 years. He came live in the early hours of the morning, clearly shellshocked but brimming over with gratitude to everyone who had supported the album and the song.
Then on 05/04 the promotions were over and Jimin once again expressed his happiness and thanks to ARMY for supporting FACE.
It had been a whirlwind and I think we, as well as Jimin, were caught off guard when the promotions ended so quickly. We had a beautiful album to savour but we wanted to continue to savour it with Jimin.
The focus returned to fashion when Jimin flew to New York at the end of April to attend the Tiffany & Co Landmark opening (28/04).
He attended Suga's concert in Newark on the 29/04 and headed back to South Korea later that week. But why didn't he fly straight back after the concert we wondered?
May 2023
It all soon became clear, he had been filming the MV for Angel Pt 1 from the Fast X movie. The song came out on the 19/05 and debuted at No. 65 on the Billboard Hot 100. This was Jimin's fourth chart entry in five months.
youtube
At the end of the month, Jimin made a short trip to London and we are still speculating on what that was all about. He posted photos of his trip to HP World as soon as he got back to South Korea on 27/05.
June 2023
Festa 2023 soaked Seoul in purple for nearly three weeks at the beginning of June in celebration of BTS's ten years since debut. Jimin gifted fans with a live performance of Dear.ARMY on 07/06 and....
youtube
,,,,,,on 13/06 BTS released this beautiful live version of Take Two with Jimin adding depth and colour to the song with his stunning vocals.
youtube
But there was still more to come, on 15/06 Jimin came live in high spirits and spent quality time with ARMY. It was the same day as the release of Angel Part 2.
youtube
On the 27/06 Jimin's solo profile appeared on Billboard and serves as a permanent reminder of everything that has happened in the short space of 6 months. It has been a roller coaster ride and I am still hopeful that we will still get more music from Jimin before he has to enlist. I wanted to make this post so that no one forgets what he has achieved and the permanent mark he has made on the global music industry since he took his first steps towards a solo career.
So, to summarize: starting in february 1st, when jm was busier then ever preparing for face promotions, till march 29, when jm did the last live for face promotions, jk did a total of 8 lives, if we don't count the ones that happened on the same day. On the lives, he mentioned jm every chance he get, he sang his songs, reacted to his videos, and from time to time jm appeared on the comments. Face promotions ended, jk and jm disappeared. April 3, bbhot100 jm live on jm's house, somebody (I wonder who...) talking in the background. April 7, that vhopekook surprise (*cough* to jk *cough*) live happened. Jk traveled. Jk came back, then, radio silence again from him and jm. April 24, conversations start to appear that jm would travel to that tiffany & co event. Jk starts a live. Then, jm get back to Korea, and jk never did a live again. In fact, both of them didnt showed up that much. Finally, 1 month after his last live and 2 days after jm traveled to London, jk appears with a live on weverse.
Jk lives were a CONSTANT thing when jm was busy as hell and promoting face. As soon as promotions ended, it just stopped happening. Jm travels and BOOM: jk shows up. They can't get more obvious than this, really. I'm afraid that we are second option to jk :( lol
I dont mind being second choice. It's Jimin we are talking about after all. 🤪
Fast forward to Aug/Sep and the pattern continues with them being MIA at the same time and then coming online. On the same day.

Thank you.
On March 24th, Jimin's album FACE is up against titans, including Ed Sheeran and Lana Del Rey. His antis have stated they WILL be giving them boosts just so he will rank even lower.
In addition, we will never get radio play like those artists because BTS will not bow to payola rules and pay for play. BTS has only ARMY.
So the best way to counteract that deficit is to buy the album. For example, you can chart a song by streaming it 150 times or buy it once, and it's the same count toward Billboard.
Jimin's album has 6 songs and is under a half hour long, so you can stream 900 songs nonstop for a day and a half, or you can buy 1 album. Given there are charts that count for 24 hours and for a week, buying is often the most expedient way to guarantee a spot on the Hot 100 and BB200.
For US and Puerto Rico, digital and physical albums are given the same weight in the charts (except for in WeVerse--digital songs in that platform do not count for Billboard).
I'm gonna link to Amazon CDs that will count for charts because Amazon products can be tricky with sellers from all over the world. I think you'll easily be able to find the albums on WeVerse (the digitals won't count toward Billboard but the CDs will) and the digitals on iTunes (this will count as a pure digital sale).
Here is where you can preorder:
Also at Target--it can be a little tricky because the cheaper version for $19.99 doesn't let you choose which version you end up getting. So here are both albums:
Now, let me say to my friends on here who are pinching pennies out of necessity: YOU ARE NO LESS OF AN ARMY IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY ALBUMS. Nor are you less of an ARMY if you have to prioritize the typically cheaper digital version (it still counts, it just makes the artists a little less money and you don't get stuff like photocards and all). I'd love it if you could reach out to funding accounts for help; they often will prioritize digital and that totally counts too, both for charts and awards in Korea.
Whatever you do, be really careful of bundle deals with a bunch of ancillary accessories as those often will NOT count for Billboard--be sure to check before buying.
And even if all you do is stream on free trial premium YouTube and Spotify accounts, you are still helping. So no shame. No censure.
The reason we have success as an ARMY is so we can each of us contribute to the best of our abilities, and cover for each other when we need to tap out. If you're not in the US or Puerto Rico, you can stream in a different time zone and give those ARMYs some much needed rest or a chance to work at their jobs.
I love the way that Jimin is treating this just like a regular comeback, giving us a comeback map and image teasers. That makes me so happy. HE KNOWS WHAT WE WANT!!
The fansign call is such a typical Kpop promotional event. Not the call itself but the idea of the one-on-one interaction they used to do during fansign events. I think he is trying to make up for all those things that got taken away since 2019. They used to be able to do fansigns in person but that ended a long time ago, so I think it’s very personal to him and sentimental of him to do that sort of thing again. Also, it will be another thing that falls in line with the album theme as it will be FACE to FACE with Jimin.
There will be 70 winners (nod to the 7). Good luck to all of those who entered the raffle for that. I hope we get to hear about the winner's experiences meeting Jimin in person!
I am thrilled that we will get two music videos and I’m hoping maybe as soon as this weekend we will get another TikTok of maybe Lie...Serendipity... Filter... oh my God, what if???
I can't say much about Promise becoming an official release because I might start crying. Seems extreme but it makes my heart swell with so much pride for him. I know that song means so much to Jimin. Even Hobi knew how much that song meant to him and gave him a real CD of it in a case with a photo book.
I can't wait to see everyone unraveling all the symbolism, mysterious hidden themes and number puzzles he will have embedded in every part of his FACE. I also can't wait to hear him talk about it all with us. PLEASE UNIVERSE GIVE US JIMIN ON SUCHWITA!!
When I say hidden themes... supposedly on March 24, the moon phase will be waxing crescent...
This is gonna be a wild ride and we've been waiting so long for you, Jimin.
