BTS member Jimin has sparked global fan excitement after revealing the behind-the-scenes story of his shirtless look at Paris Fashion Week, during a live broadcast held on October 13th KST to celebrate his birthday.
“I wanted to look cool for the fans,” he said — and confirmed that the bold styling choice was entirely his own idea.
During a special birthday livestream on fan platform Weverse, Jimin engaged with fans and took questions about his recent activities. When asked about his appearance at Paris Fashion Week, he revealed that the shirtless look he wore to the Dior SS26 runway event was something he personally suggested.
“I was so nervous. It was my first public schedule in almost two years, and the first time I was showing myself to you all again. So I had to look cool,” he shared.
He continued, “I said I wouldn’t wear anything underneath this time. When I went to the headquarters for a fitting the day before, I asked, ‘Is it okay if I wear it like this?’ and I got the approval.”
