As expected, Jimin watched J-Hope from a special spot on stage throughout the performance. ARMY managed to catch one of BTS’ youngest members dancing with his hyungs together and giving her as much joy as possible when the songs are over.
In particular, there was a time when J-Hope performed his song “EGO,” which of course is a melody…
Jimin was seen dancing and jumping like he didn’t care about the world. Although he could perform with J-Hope all the time as BTS, Jimin was there as a fan and showed his love throughout the set.
After J-Hope finished his set, Jimin remained J-Hope’s biggest fan. As he left the room, he made sure to greet the ARMYs who had just finished watching the show.
As he walked down the stairs, he gave a wave that basically saw Jimin explain that J-Hope “killed him” before continuing to greet the fans. It was no surprise how proud Jimin was.
He then continued to praise as J-Hope surprised ARMY with a live special after the show, and Jimin made an appearance that made both J-Hope and ARMY smile.
During the broadcast, Jimin joked that J-Hope was cooler during his lollapalooza performance compared to when he is with BTS.
J-Hope then explained that Jimin kept congratulating him on the way back to the hotel. However, Jimin defended himself by saying that it was not just a compliment but the truth and that he considers his member a fan, not part of BTS.
Jimin later shared that he thought J-Hope would feel lonely acting alone because they always did great performances and shows together.
It seems like Jimin wanted to be there for J-Hope, so he wasn’t alone during such an important time.
Unsurprisingly, no one is a bigger BTS fan than the members themselves. Although ARMYs around the world cheered on J-Hope at the festival, it would have meant a lot to have Jimin there personally to cheer him on on behalf of the rest of the group.
