It was belatedly reported that Jimin, a member of popular idol BTS, was confiscated of an apartment he bought for 5.9 billion won after failing to pay health insurance premiums.

In response, HYBE officially apologized, stating that it was due to the company's negligence, not Jimin.

On the afternoon of April 24, HYBE explained, "There was a mistake in some mails in the process of the company receiving the mail that arrived at the artist's accommodation first and delivering it to the artist."

He added, "Jimin was not aware of the delinquency due to his overseas schedule and long-term vacation that had been held since the end of last year and his overseas schedule after that."

HYBE also reported that it has paid the entire amount of arrears.

In the meantime, he bowed his head once again, saying, "I apologize for causing concern to artists and fans due to the company's negligence."

Biz Korea reported earlier that Jimin was seized by the National Health Insurance Service in May last year for failing to pay for his health insurance premiums after four seizure registrations were sent.

Currently, many fans of BTS are angry that Jimin's image has deteriorated due to his agency's mistakes.

However, not a few people expressed disappointment with Jimin who failed to pay his health insurance premiums.

BTS’s Jimin is once again proving his global dominance, especially in Japan, where his solo music continues to break records!

Jimin's hit song "Who", from his second album MUSE, has just been awarded the prestigious Gold streaming certification from the Japan Record Association (RIAJ).

This honor comes after "Who" surpassed a remarkable 50 million streams in February, making it the first solo song by Jimin to receive this certification in Japan!

The Japan Record Association certifies music based on total streams, with Gold for 50 million streams, Platinum for 100 million, and Diamond for a massive 500 million.

This achievement adds another significant milestone to Jimin’s growing solo career.

Previously, Jimin also earned a Platinum certification for his first album FACE (for 250,000 units shipped) and a Gold certification for MUSE (for over 100,000 units shipped).

With the Gold streaming certification for "Who", Jimin now holds a total of three prestigious certifications from the Japan Record Association, solidifying his place as a solo artist.

Not only that, but "Who" made waves on the Billboard charts, staying on the Billboard Hot 100 for an impressive 33 weeks, setting a record for the longest-charting K-pop solo song! It also spent 32 weeks on the Billboard Japan Hot 100, showing just how much love fans have for his music.

Jimin’s solo success doesn’t stop there, as GOLDEN also spent 20 weeks on the Billboard Japan Hot Albums chart, and Jimin continues to dominate the Billboard Japan Artist 100, where he has now charted for 47 weeks! Clearly, Jimin’s popularity is unstoppable!
