• Netizens Weigh In on the 'Hole' Left by Jinni's Departure from NMIXX

    Has Jinni left NMIXX with a hole?

    Netizens are talking about NMIXX on an online community forum. They are talking about how the group is doing now and how much Jinni's leaving has affected them.

    A netizen said that Jinni was one of the older trainees, which made it fun to see how she worked with members of TWICE, ITZY, and Stray Kids.

    The netizen said that Momo, Nayeon, and Yeji talked a lot about Jinni during V Lives and that Jinni was a big part of making NMIXX who they are.

    "Her presence was out of this world. Even I, a "light" fan, was shocked when she left out of the blue. There must have been a lot of fans who were very sad when she left."

    "They didn't even give Jinni a chance to say goodbye to her fans one last time before she left, so it was really sad to see her go. I can't even watch NMIXX videos anymore because they all make me miss Jinni", the netizen said.

    Different people reacted in different ways. Among them are:

    "The group was weak to begin with…"

    "Well, Kyujin is the dance center, Sullyoon is the visual, Haewon is in charge of variety shows, and Lily is the main singer. A lot of people talked about these four. Did Jinni have that much of an effect…? I think her jet-black hair was only mentioned once, at the end of the year show, and that was it."

    "Jinni was also my favorite, but I can't watch NMIXX now because of that."

    "The real problem is that the group isn't very well-known as a whole…"

    "All I can do is wish Jinni the best."

    "She definitely played at least two different people"

    "I'd say she left a big hole because NMIXX was still a young rookie group and the company just made someone leave out of the blue, so now the rest of the group is lost."

    "The effect is definitely big"

    "I thought Jinni was the most likeable 4th generation female idol, and I was waiting for her popularity to grow."

    So, what do you think?

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
