Jimin‘s recent journey to Japan for an international engagement has underscored his immense global influence and popularity. His distinctive fashion sense and the updates he shared on his Instagram account have sparked several viral trends among his fan base.
One notable trend emerged following his visit to a local chain restaurant. After Jimin posted a photograph of himself dining there, fans quickly began converging on the establishment. Many sought to replicate the experience by sitting at the same table, donning similar attire, and mimicking his pose for their own photographs. This surge in patronage led to an overwhelming influx of customers, prompting the restaurant’s management to implement a ticketing system to manage reservations efficiently. As a result, fans were willing to wait up to six hours for service [read details here].
Two more trends emerged from this trip, and these were in relation to Jimin’s affiliation with the giant French luxury fashion brand, Dior.
Upon his departure to Japan, Jimin was captured in photographs at the airport, once again showcasing his impeccable sense of style. This time, he embraced a quintessentially Parisian fashion approach, characterized by its effortless elegance, timelessness, and a playful yet sophisticated aura. Moreover, Jimin’s flair for unique and refreshing style statements was on full display, particularly in the way he accessorizes.
A particular aspect that captivated his fans was the creative adornment on his ‘Dior’ bag. Observant fans noted that Jimin had repurposed the ‘star’ tags, typically received by customers following a purchase at Dior stores, as decorative elements on his bag. This innovative use of the tags transformed the accessory, lending it an enhanced aesthetic appeal. Jimin’s ability to consistently reinvent fashion norms with such ingenuity never fails to amaze his admirers.
Of course, fans wasted no time trying this out for themselves. Many flocked to Dior stores worldwide to buy products simply to get those stars so that they could decorate their own bags with them, and just like that, Jimin inadvertently started yet another frenzy and a global viral trend! His power and influence is beyond imaginable.
In fact, many female fans started to shop in the men’s section of the stores specifically to get the silver stars that Jimin had, since it seems that they could only be given from that section. Such impact from one individual is very rare to come by.
Secondly, among the photos that Jimin shared on his Instagram included one where he was at the front of a Dior boutique, which fans identified as the Ginza Six store in Tokyo.
Similarly, fans started to visit different Dior stores in their cities and posted photos in front of the stores on social media, quickly making this to become a third trend sparked by Jimin.
And thus, in just a matter of 2 to 3 days, Jimin had unintentionally started three hot global trends among fans, proving why he is a top global superstar.
