“Six years ago, on a day filled with laughter and pranks, BTS’ Jimin had fans and fellow members in splits. But what was the prank that still has fans chuckling?”
On April Fool’s Day, a day known for its playful pranks, BTS’ Jimin decided to add to the fun. He humorously “revealed” that fellow members Jin and RM were dating each other. This prank, which took place six years ago, is still remembered for its lighthearted spirit.
Jimin, known for his sweet and playful antics, especially on April Fool’s Day, decided to prank both fans and fellow members in 2018. He “confirmed” that two of his fellow BTS members, RM and Jin, were in a relationship. He even provided what seemed to be evidence from an article. However, savvy fans quickly recognized the date and realized that it was all part of Jimin’s April Fool’s Day prank.
Because of Jimin’s playful antics, he jokingly became the president of the NamJin (Namjoon and Jin) fan club. Using hashtags #JIMIN and #Hyungs_ILoveYouguys, he added to the fun atmosphere. In response, Jin opted for an even more humorous approach by expressing mock anger towards Jimin and decided to write an acrostic poem about Bang Si Hyuk, their agency’s founder. The poem humorously praised Bang Si Hyuk, with lines like “Bang: tansonyeondan’s creator. Shi: Hyuk the best. Hyuk: hyung, thank you.” It was a playful and lighthearted moment, showcasing Jimin’s and his fellow member’s mischievous sense of humor.
