On October 1, Jimin went live on Weverse for the first time since his Paris Fashion Week appearance and the endless noise surrounding old dating rumors. What started as a quick check-in turned into something emotional, heartfelt, and very Jimin.
The first stream lasted just under ten minutes before crashing due to poor connection, but he came right back with a second live, dressed in Dior and speaking from the heart. He admitted that life isn’t always easy, saying, “I’ve been through many things, and I want to keep showing a good side of myself. Living life well is not easy. Becoming a good adult, living a good life, and dealing with these things are not easy.”
Fans instantly felt the weight of those words. Comments poured in like waves: “Stay strong, Jimin, we are always with you,” “You did nothing wrong,” and “You are perfect as you are.” People weren’t just typing support—they were crying along with him, because everyone could feel how genuine his struggle was.
The live came after weeks of speculation following Song Da-eun’s social media post that reignited old dating talk. HYBE had already confirmed the two were in a relationship many years ago and are no longer together, but still, the whispers lingered. Instead of ignoring it, Jimin showed up, not to defend himself, but to connect with ARMY in the only way he knows how—with honesty.
Fans said their hearts broke hearing him admit how hard it is to balance his intentions with the harshness of public life. Others praised his wisdom, noting how even when he’s hurting, he speaks with compassion. Many joked that they didn’t know whether they wanted to hug him or needed him to hug them, because his words hit that deeply.
And that’s why Jimin’s live mattered so much. It wasn’t polished PR or staged lines—it was raw humanity. ARMY saw the man behind the spotlight reminding us that even the brightest people can feel weighed down. And in return, ARMY did what they do best: they wrapped him in love, reassurance, and loyalty that doesn’t waver, no matter what headline is floating around.
