Jimin strips off all filters to reveal his true self in debut solo album "Face"

Jimin is now working on his first solo documentary, "Jimin's Production Diary." On October 23, "Jimin's Production Diary" will be released. BTS's official account recently uploaded a video of Jimin composing his letter on X (previously Twitter).

"Hello, ARMY," he wrote. "My name is Jimin. I had no idea that my first solo album, which had what I wanted to express and how I wanted to structure it, would be so well received by you. I didn't expect so much affection for my debut album, which featured things I'd always wanted to say and things to help me organise my ideas. That's why when I received the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Chart, it didn't really hit me."

In March of this year, he also released his debut solo album, "Face." Jimin has released solo material as a member of BTS, including "Lie" (2016), "Serendipity" (2017), and "Filter" and "Promise" (2020). In 2022, he sang "With You," a duet with Ha Sung-woon, for the TvN drama "Our Blues."
