3. He gets “mentally weak” while traveling
In the Break The Silence docuseries, Jimin reflected on the challenges he faces and how his members help him through them.
Strangely, I tend to get mentally weak when I go abroad, but rather than words, when I see the members standing next to me on stage looking happy like this, that itself is really comforting. They make me realize that I’m not alone when I’m on stage.
— Jimin
4. He fought with Jungkook on a rainy day
The “dumpling incident” has a sequel, and it’s called, “A Farewell Taxi”! At 2020 FESTA, Jimin and Jungkook shared a story about a fight they had years ago.
After arguing in the practice rooms, Jungkook walked out. On his way home, Jungkook tearfully called Jimin and apologized, but Jimin was still fuming mad.
