Today, October 13, the global fan community is joyfully celebrating Jimin’s 30th birthday. Fans have turned Seoul and Busan into “Jimin’s sanctuaries” with large-scale decoration projects featuring banners and LED lights. They have also transformed his birthday into a real festival with yacht events and fireworks displays.

In particular, charitable projects carried out around the world in Jimin’s name have been launched as the most meaningful gifts for him on this special day. On social media, countless warm wishes and heartfelt letters have been shared by fans, sending love to “angel” Jimin.

While fans are showering the BTS superstar with attention on his special day, they are also certain that the members themselves wouldn’t miss the chance to send him thoughtful birthday wishes and even some unique, memorable gifts.

The BTS members’ birthday gift tradition has always amused fans for how “extraordinary” it is compared to ordinary presents. For instance, 11 years ago, Jimin received a touching handwritten letter from SUGA. The members have also enjoyed posting funny meme photos or unreleased pictures of him. More recently, Jin gifted Jimin a wallet shaped like his favorite Maplestory character — and even slipped in “pocket money” worth two months of military salary inside.

There have been countless gifts from the members to Jimin over the years, each one making fans smile. But what about Jimin himself? Which present has left such a strong impression that he could never forget it? The BTS vocalist once revealed the answer in an interview.

Specifically, when asked, “What is the birthday gift you remember the most?” he didn’t hesitate to answer: “It’s the gift the members gave me when we were still trainees — a bracelet.”

He recalled, “The members... It was before I was confirmed to be in the team. They polled their moneyand bought me a bracelet.” Then, laughing shyly, he added, “I kept it safe in a box for a relly long time. But I lost it Iost it while moving. I'm sorry.”

Fans immediately understood his smile and couldn’t help but laugh, comparing it to “SUGA’s ring” that RM once joked about being “somewhere on Earth”!

Meanwhile, many fans pointed out that the bracelet the members gave Jimin carried deep meaning. It wasn’t just about its material value — the fact that they “pooled their money” to buy it for him reflected how tough things were back in their trainee days.

What’s even more touching is that they didn’t hesitate to spend their limited money to buy a birthday gift for a trainee whose debut was still uncertain. For Jimin at that time, it was more than a gift — it was encouragement and a sign of acknowledgment from the members about his place in their hearts.

Even though the keepsake itself may have been ℓσѕт during a move, the memories and emotions behind it remain intact — forever engraved in the artist’s heart. Fans expressed admiration for the beautiful friendship that has connected the members since their very first days together and has lasted for more than a decade:

- All the boys pooled together money and bought him a bracelet for his birthday. At the time, they could be poor but they couldn't let their Jiminie not have a birthday gift

- They get along even before debut. They were sure about debuting with Jimin in the lineup

- BTS supporting eachother before even becoming "BTS". They are destined brothers.

- Then Jimin kept giving them birthday presents even though the boys at first said they shouldn't. My family is so

- They loved him from day 1 my precious baby

- they really was meant to be. you can just tell that they are the greatest of friends

- My true seven. BTS were always brothers. I love it here!!

- crying they're so precious,, i understand why jimin started giving them gifts on their birthday despite them agreeing to no gift giving on their birthday hhh

- That is like the cutest thing ever I can’t

- So relatable, I lost my wedding & engagement rings trying to keep it safe in a box while I was moving too

- I feel like normal teenage boys don't do that normally but BTS family is different, they can't hide their love towards each others

- The gift was their way of cheering for little Jimin — they had loved him from the very beginning.

- They were so poor back then that they had to pool their money together just to buy the bracelet. Oh, how my heart aches when I think about those days. But now, those times are long gone. There’s nothing they can’t afford to buy for each other anymore.
