Early Life
Jimin was born Park Ji-min on October 13, 1995, in the Geumjeong District of Busan. He grew up with a younger brother and attended Hodong Elementary School and Yonsan Middle School.
During middle school, Jimin began developing his dance skills at Just Dance Academy, where he learned styles such as popping and locking. He later studied contemporary dance at the Busan High School of Arts. One of his teachers encouraged him to audition for an entertainment company, which eventually led him to Big Hit Entertainment (now Hybe Corporation).
Jimin later transferred to Korean Arts High School and graduated in 2014. He went on to study Broadcasting and Entertainment at Global Cyber University, earning his degree in 2020, and later pursued a Master of Business Administration in Advertising and Media at Hanyang Cyber University.
Career with BTS
BTS debuted in 2013 with members RM, Suga, J‑Hope, Jin, V, Jungkook, and Jimin.
The group rose to global prominence with albums such as Dark & Wild (2014), Wings (2016), Love Yourself: Tear (2018), Map of the Soul: 7 (2020), and Be (2020).
Their global hit songs include Spring Day, DNA, Fake Love, Idol, and Dynamite.

Solo Career
In March 2023, Jimin released his debut solo studio album Face, which topped album charts in countries including Japan and South Korea and reached the top 10 in more than a dozen markets worldwide.
The album’s lead single Like Crazy made history by reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, making Jimin one of the few Korean solo artists to achieve that milestone. Another track from the album, Set Me Free Pt. 2, also topped the Billboard World Digital Song Sales chart.
He has also released popular non-album singles such as Promise and Christmas Love, and collaborated with Ha Sung-woon on the song With You for the soundtrack of the TV series Our Blues.
