260103 | [ICON POLLS]Jimin has been named the Most Powerful Asian Celebrity of 2025! 

Park Jimin Named Most Powerful Asian Celebrity of 2025: Fuels Charity Donation for Children’s Futures

We at ICON are thrilled to announce that BTS member Park Jimin has been named the Most Powerful Asian Celebrity of 2025 based on our global survey. This extensive poll engaged millions of entertainment fans from across the world, spanning Asia, Europe, North America, Latin America, and beyond. Participants voted based on criteria including cultural influence, commercial success, social impact, and global reach, resulting in Jimin’s resounding victory as a true embodiment of power and inspiration in the entertainment industry.
As a multifaceted artist singer, dancer, and global icon Jimin has consistently demonstrated values of compassion, humility, and generosity that align perfectly with our mission at ICON. His well-known commitment to charity shines through in his personal donations to education, disaster relief, and support for underprivileged communities. Jimin often shares in interviews how integral giving back is to his life and career, believing that influence should always serve to uplift others. This philosophy has not only shaped his actions but has also motivated fans worldwide to participate in charitable initiatives, amplifying positive change on a global scale.
By earning this prestigious title through overwhelming fan support, Jimin has once again turned recognition into an act of charity, reflecting his core beliefs. In celebration of his achievement, we at ICON have committed 1,500,000 KRW (approximately 1,032 USD) to Compassion International, sponsoring two children Junica from Haiti and Waraka from Thailand for a full year. This donation provides vital resources such as education, healthcare, and nutrition, creating lasting impacts on their lives and families. It’s a direct extension of Jimin’s ethos, where his global popularity becomes a catalyst for meaningful philanthropy, proving that true power lies in fostering hope and opportunity for those in need.
We are inspired by Jimin’s unwavering dedication to making the world a better place, and this honor exemplifies how his influence translates into real world kindness. Congratulations to Jimin your legacy continues to inspire us all at ICON and beyond.

Since BTS will express everything that they can show, I also said that if the army accepts it as it is, they will be more grateful. “I want to look pretty to the Americans, so I’m not thinking anything else, I’m just preparing hard.

RM Instagram (1) story (1

RM Weverse (1) 

To me, ‘love’ is still a complicated word.
Have I ever loved someone properly at least once.
I’ve been holding on to that question for a long time
There’s only one thing that’s certain.
The fact that I still don’t know.
I’ve been stuck with a lot of things over the past year.
It’s gone after a while,
I don’t know how many people are leaving on the way
In the meantime, I’m shaking, I’m in pain
We’ve gone through a lot of mistakes.
After that time
It feels like I’m just standing looking at spring.
This wait won’t be the last,
But I didn’t stop and came all the way here.
That’s a relief.
I have a lot of thoughts,
I’ll try to believe that I’ve grown up every time
I’m going to fail and make mistakes again.
In the process, I’ll make someone sad
He’ll hurt himself, right?
But I think I know now.
I mean, trying to do a good job doesn’t give you all the answers.
I’m so excited to be back after a long time
My heart is humbled.
Even if you catch your breath and choose your horse, it’s still rough and clumsy,
I don’t know why you talk a lot again.
But I’m trying to tell you without hiding.
Still
When good music is made, my heart beats,
When I play with the members, I laugh like a child.
And when I think of ARMY BOMB in the audience who will shine like a forest at night
I feel like I’m about to cry.
This energy and heart makes me and us
I believe you brought me all the way here.
Someone is watching
Someone left
Someone will worry, regret and blame, right?Nevertheless, in some form
If you’re waiting for us
If that’s your love
I want to get back on my feet a few times.
Even if you’re stumbling!
The way a person tries to love the world.
a way of trying to live.
If we’re all one universe
That might be all about the universe.
That’s how I feel
I’m waiting and waiting.
New Year’s greetings are late.
I mean, I’m going to go further now.
Where the sun rises, where spring is heard.-And finally to where you are!
It’s a sentence of Rilke that’s been in my mind for a long time I’m done with the mess. Love is still complicated, Nevertheless, I want to say it with a simple mind. I love you!
“Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.”

 A sound that rings out, clear and pure,  like an angel’s blessing. 
 Could that be the reason? 
 Pure white, bell-shaped angel muguet is  known as the flower that delivers happiness. 
 Blooming in gentle tiers,  it is known as the staircase of angels. 
 A trail of happiness carried by  an angelic scent is arriving on  February 1st.
