Recently, ιи∂ια’s leading financial newspaper The Economic Times selected one of Jimin’s quotes as its “Quote of the Day” and gave the statement special attention. The quote introduced by The Economic Times was: “If your heart has grown bigger, that also means you have let go.” It was originally said by Jimin in BTS’ documentary film BRING THE SOUL: THE MOVIE.
The Economic Times described Jimin as an artist with exceptional expressive abilities and an emotionally rich voice, while also highlighting him as one of the influential figures in modern pop music. The newspaper also noted that beyond his musical activities, he has earned the respect of fans and the public through his sincerity, kindness, and emotional openness.
And a moment from Jimin’s latest Baltimore concert immediately further proved this side of him — when he melted at the sight of a little girl in the au∂ιєnce and did not hesitate to give her his own jacket!
Specifically, a video that is currently going viral on social media captured the moment Jimin was making his way toward the extended stage to interact with fans. Amid the crowd, the idol suddenly spotted a little ARMY girl wearing a Chimmy tiara. He almost froze for a few seconds before covering his mouth with an expression of genuine surprise and emotion — clearly showing that his heart had melted at the sight of his young fan.
Jimin was then seen quickly taking off the hoo∂ιє he had worn during that day’s performance, which had been dяαρєd over his arm, and signaling to the people around him to pαѕѕ it to the little girl. He patiently watched until the young fan actually received the gift. What made the moment even more touching was that Jimin then sincerely placed a hand over his heart, as if expressing his gratitude and appreciation for the support from his young fan.
Jimin’s incredibly gentle reaction left even fans who were simply watching the moment feeling emotional, while also making them curious about the little girl who had managed to make him “melt” on stage. Fortunately, the child’s family generously shared a few adorable moments after the concert.
In one photo, which an ARMY said was her niece, the little girl was seen holding the jacket she had just received from Jimin, still wearing her Chimmy tiara and a BT21 T-shirt. Her face was filled with an unmistakable happy smile, while her big, round eyes and adorable appearance made her even more endearing. Another photo showed the little girl wearing Jimin’s jacket after returning to the hotel. Her aunt shared: “She said she was cold as we walked into the hotel, then she said ‘wait! I can wear Jimin’s jacket!’”
As soon as these photos were shared, fans could not stop gushing over how adorable the little girl looked while congratulating her on receiving such a special gift from Jimin: "She’s such a cutie. I’m so happy when seeing mothers or fathers bringing their children to the BTS concert! May you be blessed alway", "She's so cute. Keep it sade for her", "She's so adorable , cute and pretty. GOD bless her", "She's so sweet and precious OMG!!! I'so happy for her!!", "Omg so precious! What a beautiful memory for her! I'm sure she'll cherish it well", "Ahh she is super adorable i am so happy that she got that",...
Notably, this is not the first time Jimin has shown special care toward younger ARMYs. Throughout the BTS WORLD TOUR ‘ARIRANG’, the idol has touched fans’ hearts multiple times with the way he treats children.
At the concert in мєχι¢σ, when Jimin spotted a young fan crying in the au∂ιєnce from the stage, he gave her the cowboy hat he was wearing and comforted her, saying, “Don’t cry.” At the Paris concert, a moment of Jimin noticing a child standing close to the barricade was also widely shared on social media. He asked the surrounding au∂ιєnce not to push or crowd the child before taking off the T-shirt he was wearing and giving it to them.
Jimin’s kindness also goes far beyond his moments on stage. The idol has long continued his charitable activities for children and young people. When making donations to education offices in various regions, he expressed his wish to “support the next generation, those who dream of learning but face difficult circumstances.” He also donated 100 million won to Rotary International to support efforts to eradicate polio.
Ultimately, just as The Economic Times described, Jimin is not only an artist with striking visuals and incredible talent on stage, but also someone with a warm and open heart. Perhaps that is exactly why his beauty is loved around the world — and why one of his most well-known nicknames is “Angel.”
