At the 'BreakTudo Awards 2025' in São Paulo, вяαzιℓ, he claimed 'International Hit of the Year' and was also named in Billboard вяαzιℓ’s 'Best K-pop Male Solo Songs of 2025'. мєχι¢σ’s No. 1 online pop music station, 'House Radio', selected him as the '2025 K-POP Artist' for the second consecutive year, while his solo track 'Don't Say You Love Me' was included in the 'K-POP Song' category, showcasing his immense local popularity.

Chef Baek shared: “I am so happy to meet you today, First Lady. I was truly moved by her work and dedication to supporting the underprivileged. BTS JIN was very sad that he could not be here in person. He personally signed the gin he made and asked that it be presented to you as a gift on his behalf. Jin made Gin.”

He continued: “The First Lady said that many people in вяαzιℓ have a great affection for кσяєα. She also shared that вяαzιℓians especially show a lot of support for BTS JIN. Thank you so much. I will definitely pαѕѕ that message on to Jin. All the wonderful people of вяαzιℓ—we love you and thank you.”

The First Lady then concluded the video by saying: “The fans in вяαzιℓ are waiting for you! Thank you for this gift, dear! And we’ll see each other in October in вяαzιℓ.”

Thank you once again.

- I love how bts is just collecting First Lady’s and presidents everywhere

- I’m touched that his brand has gone global to the point that even a First Lady knows about it

- The caliber of names he’s αѕѕociated with is always insane… he’s truly a global star

- Guys, what if Janja actually meets him in October? OMG Can't wait. This is why he's called Worldwide Handsome. 

- This is insane, a First Lady interacting with Jin?! He’s truly on another level.

- This is such a sweet and iconic moment, I’m so proud of him

- Moments like this really show how BTS has gone beyond being just Kpop idols and become cultural ambαѕѕadors on a global scale

- BTS have consistently represented кσяєα’s values, creativity, and youth culture in a way that feels human and relatable, which makes them incredibly effective in cultural diplomacy
