Jimin's highly anticipated solo debut album was finally announced, creating huge buzz online and among media outlets

After a long wait, a formal announcement has officially been made regarding Jimin's solo debut and his upcoming solo debut album, generating unimaginable buzz online and among media outlets.

Jimin's individual projects have always enjoyed immense popularity, even while still promoting as a group member, under BTS. The fact that he is the only member whose individual projects, both within and outside the group, have all sold over 100k units in the USA (VIBE, With You, Filter, Friends, Serendipity (FLE), Intro: Serendipity, Lie), and is also the first and only Korean solo artist to have 3 of his solo songs sell over 500k units in the USA (Filter, Serendipity (FLE), Lie), is testament to the huge demand for his music. Moreover, 'Filter' has achieved #1 on iTunes in 117 countries, making it the B-side track with the most #1s in iTunes history, while 'With You' was the fastest song in iTunes history to achieve #1 in 100 countries (4 hours) and the only song in history to achieve an iTunes all kill by topping all 119 existing country iTunes charts globally.

In streaming, his solo songs 'Filter' and 'Lie' are both the most streamed solo songs from their respective albums (MOTS:7 and WINGS) on Spotify, with 'Filter' also once having held the record of the most streamed Korean audio track on YouTube for a long time, a record achieved in barely 2 years after its release. It was also the fastest Korean audio to surpass 100M streams on the platform and is the most streamed solo song by a BTS member on India's largest music streaming platforms, Gaana and JioSaavn, and on Anghami, the top music streaming platform in the Middle East. 

The data on his performance on various music charts is very telling of his unbelievable impact as a solo artist, even though he achieved all this while he was yet to make an official solo debut. This is why many have been anticipating his official solo debut, eager to see his individual performances in dance and music, as these have been key factors in his unparalleled popularity and impact thus far.

Finally, after such a long wait of 9 years after his debut, Jimin has officially announced his official solo debut, and the excitement all around the world is immeasurable. 

On February 21, his upcoming solo debut album titled 'FACE' was officially announced, and Jimin immediately took over the Top 6 Worldwide trends, which then quickly rose to the Top 10 Worldwide trends in under 30 minutes from when the announcement was made. He also occupied the Top 4 trends in South Korea, while in the USA, he had 3 trends, all simultaneously occupying the top spot on the trends, and had many other trends on Twitter in general.

The case was the same when the promotional schedule and the track list of the album were unveiled. Numerous tags entered Worldwide trends and also trended in numerous countries like South Korea and the USA. 

There were over 16 related keywords trending simultaneously after the announcement of the promotional schedule, especially with the goodies such as autographed photo cards and video call events awaiting fans, and all the top 5 Worldwide trends were occupied by Jimin when the tracklist was released.

Numerous articles were published by Korean media outlets, and they all ranked among the top 30 news articles with the most engagements for three consecutive days, showing how much attention and interest his album was drawing not just from fans but also from the public.

Numerous reputable media outlets in South Korea and internationally have continuously reported on the news of Jimin's upcoming album, again showing the level of interest that the public has in Jimin's activities as an artist.
