Jimin Denies Being A Crybaby But There's One Thing That Always Moves Him To Tears

Among all the members of BTS, Jimin seems to be the one most often seen crying, to the point where he is frequently teased by both the members and ARMY as the group’s “crybaby.” This stems from his sensitive soul and his inability to hide his genuine emotions. In addition, Jimin’s soft, baby-like features also make others feel as though he truly is a child at heart.

However, a Jimin who cries easily does not mean something negative. What truly matters is that in the countless moments when Jimin has been seen shedding tears, he has never cried for himself—not even when he was sick, exhausted, or seriously injured. This clearly shows that he is not someone who is “weak” or “overly emotional.” In fact, he is a strong young man who maintains composure and calmness in every situation.

Jimin himself has repeatedly stated that he is not someone who cries easily, and that his tears only fall when there is a truly important reason. And if there is one thing that genuinely moves him deeply, it is BTS and ARMY. He has admitted that his emotions overflow and that he cannot hold back his tears when he witnesses the love ARMY gives to the group.

RM has also confirmed that what makes it hardest for Jimin to hold back his tears is ARMY, explaining that Jimin’s mind is completely filled with thoughts of BTS and their fans: "Jimin’s head is 99999% filled with the fans and BTS".

Nearly 99% of the times Jimin openly expresses his emotions happen in front of ARMY—whether at concerts, award ceremonies, or even online stages—which is why he is often mistaken as the most “easily moved to tears” member of the group. Fans surely remember the moment when Jimin cried during the Love Yourself: Speak Yourself Tour concert in Brazil, overwhelmed after hearing ARMY sing along.

During the same world tour at the Rose Bowl, he also cried while saying goodbye to the audience after the performance. At the 2020 Map of the Soul ON:E online concert, Jimin broke down in tears during his final speech as he talked about not being able to meet ARMY in person due to the COVID-19 pand3mic...

When BTS won “Artist of the Year” at the 2018 MAMA Awards, Jimin spoke about the hardships the group had gone through and the efforts they shared together with ARMY, and when it came time to give thanks, tears streamed down his face...

When BTS reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the first time with “Dynamite,” Jimin even cried for three straight hours—overwhelmed with happiness, missing the fans, and wishing he could perform for them in person. The love Jimin has for BTS and ARMY is so immense—so powerful and overwhelming—that it makes his heart tremble!

And it is not only shown through his tears. Jimin constantly expresses his affection and appreciation for ARMY through his actions. After every performance, he always runs all the way to the very edge of the stage, even to areas without lights or cameras, just to make sure he does not miss a single fan. He once wore a necklace engraved with the word “ARMY” every day until he lost it—and he was deeply saddened by that.

Whenever he has the chance, Jimin never hesitates to pour out his sincere feelings to ARMY, which always moves people deeply. He once said: "Sometimes people ask me what I think I’ll be doing in 5 or 7 years. I honestly don’t know what I’ll be doing… But I want to be here. I want to be together with everyone, I want to be happy. I want to make a lot of good memories."

Especially when ARMY told him that as BTS became more famous, they feared the distance between them and the group would grow wider, Jimin responded: "Don't think that we are getting further and further apart. It is you who have put me where I am today. So hearing that makes my heart hurt." On another occasion, when writing on a wishing tree, Jimin left the message: “Go to the end of time with my fans, the ARMYs”.

In Jimin’s heart, ARMY are the people he wants to be closest to and most connected with. Seeing a Jimin like this, how could ARMY possibly not love him?

At this point, who could still say that the relationship between idols and fans is one-sided, foolish, or fake? Between Jimin and ARMY—or more broadly, between BTS and ARMY—there exists a bond built on sincerity, respect, and companionship. BTS and ARMY represent one of the most beautiful relationships in the world.
