During a recent Weverse live broadcastJimin talked about his surprising new hairstyle introduced in BTS’s latest album “ARIRANGO” promotions. The idol shared that her decision to opt for long, blonde hair extensions was not widely supported: “A lot of people were against it. Almost everyone was against it. Even the company suggested that I cut my hair.”
Suga added that long hair is a very controversial style, admitting that he has already tried it and understood the mixed reactions.
Despite resistance, Jimin chose to embrace change: “I wanted to try something new at least once,” he explained, adding it with a smile “The only person who supported me was my mother.”
Jimin also shared a hilarious moment with fellow members J-Hope and V during a trip to Japan.
While visiting a sauna, Jimin said that his long hair led to an unexpected reaction: “I bowed my head and was rubbing my hair, and the members saw it and said, ‘That’s gross.'”
The heartfelt story made members and fans alike laugh, showcasing the group’s playful dynamic. Despite initial skepticism, Jimin’s long-haired look was widely praised by fans, becoming one of his most talked about images in recent years.
Meanwhile, BTS is currently on their own “BTS ARIRANG World Tour”, in 12 cities including Mexico City, Las Vegas and Chicago, with all shows sold out. The tour is set to expand further into Japan and the Middle East, for a total of 85 shows in 34 cities around the world.
