The latest inspired dancer to cover Jimin's song "Filter" is 10-year-old talent Ayuto

BTS's Jimin is an inspiration to a lot of young idols and rookies, and the latest addition is the young dancer Ayuto.

On the 31st of December dancer and choreographer for Filter Nicky Andersen shared an Instagram reel of the 10 year old Ayuto covering Jimin's song Filter with the caption, 'What a star 🤩 .'


In the video Ayuto appeared to be dressed in the exact costume Jimin had wore for the performance as he stood in front of the Television and danced to each and every step perfectly matching Jimin's.

The star is possibly the youngest addition to the long list of talented rookies and idols who have covered Jimin's songs. In November last year he covered 'Lie' by jimin captioning it with,"I hope my video reaches Jiminshi. He is the man of my dreams." The young star has covered BTS songs, I need You, Butterfly,Butter MV and Butter remix while wearing Jimin's outfits, a true show of his love for the idol.

Ayuto is a member of the TakoyaKids Japanese dance team under EXPG Studio Osaka which is a professional school that nurtures those who wish to become artists and work in showbiz such as dancers, singers, actors in Japan. The company has produced notable Japanese artists.

Filter is a record breaking song and it retained it's status as the Top ranked Korean Male solo song of 2020 and 2021 on Spotify. It currently has 241 Million streams on the platform, setting the record for fastest Korean male solo and unpromoted B-side to achieve the feat. The song is also still the most streamed Korean official audio on YouTube with 83 Million streams and counting. On TikTok it is BTS' most used solo audio and 7th most used overall with over 375K videos.

After Filter was released, there was great anticipation for its performance as fans were excited to see how Jimin would conceptualize it. Jimin was eventually able to perform at the MOTS O:NE Online concert and he did not disappoint. The world was left in awe, thanks to his overwhelming charisma and the world-class performance that he showcased. The performance videos for Filter have since garnered millions of views on YouTube, Twitter and several other platforms. Moreover, it should be noted that Filter attracted even more attention after the MOTS O:NE concert with streams shooting up on MelOn and Spotify. After the BANGBANGCON and Permission To Dance Concert in Los Angeles last year, Filter has continued to shine gaining more than 350K daily streams and charting high on Spotify regional charts like in Vietnam and even South Korea

Jimin's Filter performance was praised by countless Media outlets word wide calling it the highlight of the concert. Japanese award winning figure skaters Tim Koleto and Misato Komatsubara were inspired by Jimin's stage to perform their Stars on Ice routine to Filter and TXT's members HeuningKai and Taehyun talked about how Jimin's stage influenced their stage for Blue hour. There have also been reaction videos of Filter with many being swept in by the Jimin effect and praising his duality, incredible stage presence and his great ability to charm listeners and keep them hooked.

Jimin has also recently achieved new milestones with Christmas Love and Promise both surpassing 49 Million streams and 305 Million streams respectively on SoundCloud. It should be remembered that Promise is still the most streamed song of all time on the platform. On YouTube, the comeback trailer for Her, Serendipity, which is performed by Jimin has achieved 158 Million streams.

It is clear that Jimin is indeed a force to reckon with in the music and entertainment industry, his songs attract wider audiences and explore a diversity of genres, coupled with his top-notch performance concepts and beautiful unique vocals. This makes him more marketable and pulls in more fans and the praise of experts. It is no doubt then that fans and the world is looking forward to when Jimin will release his own work and show the world who he really is. Congratulations Jimin!
