A special exhibition highlighting BTS’s Jimin’s solo journey is coming up.

From October 11 to November 3, the exhibition titled ‘Jimin Exhibition: The Truth Untold’ will be held at Le Meridien Moxy in Myeongdong, Seoul. The event will focus on Jimin’s solo debut album FACE and his second solo album MUSE.

This exhibition will feature various displays that showcase Jimin’s solo efforts. Visitors can see Jimin’s handwritten production diaries and lyric notes, giving insight into his creative process.

The exhibition is divided into two main sections: ‘FACE’ and ‘MUSE.’ The ‘FACE’ area, inspired by rippling water, includes a media wall with shifting waves and distorted mirrors to symbolize Jimin’s journey to discover his true self. As visitors move towards ‘MUSE,’ the calming waves represent Jimin’s progress in overcoming confusion and embracing his true identity.

The exhibit will also include sets inspired by music videos like ‘Like Crazy’ and ‘Set Me Free Pt. 2,’ photo zones reflecting ‘Who’ and ‘Smeraldo Garden Marching Band (feat. Loco),’ and behind-the-scenes content. There will be handwritten letters from Jimin, costumes and props from various performances, and trophies and plaques from his solo achievements.

Fans can find more details about the exhibition on BTS’s global fan platform, Weverse.

Jimin’s solo success continues to soar on the US Billboard charts. As of September 4, his second solo album MUSE is ranked 80th on the ‘Billboard 200,’ and the title track ‘Who’ is at 38th on the ‘Hot 100,’ marking six consecutive weeks on the chart.

Additionally, MUSE holds 2nd place on ‘World Albums’ and 45th on ‘Top Current Albums,’ while ‘Who’ remains 7th on ‘Global (Excl. US),’ 12th on ‘Global 200,’ and 36th on ‘Streaming Songs.’

Hyun Bin is finally addressing the long-standing "ddongcha" (poop car) theory surrounding his character from My Name is Kim Sam-soon—and he's not holding back!

In an interview on the 19th with Star News, the beloved actor confessed, "I was wrong," responding to the reevaluation of his iconic role as Hyun Jin-heon from the 2005 hit drama. The "ddongcha" theory has been a subject of online debate for years, with many viewers critiquing Hyun Jin-heon’s character as overly arrogant and entitled.

Hyun Bin, who first rose to fame in My Name is Kim Sam-soon, took the time to reflect on the character that made him a household name. He shared, “I was just following the script; there were no personal opinions added to the character of Hyun Jin-heon. At that time, I knew Hyun Jin-heon was portrayed as a ‘bad boy,’ and the way it was expressed was different from today’s standards.”

With My Name is Kim Sam-soon now being re-released as part of Wavve's "New Classic" project, fans are revisiting the 2005 drama, and the character of Hyun Jin-heon is under fresh scrutiny. Director Kim Yun-cheol even admitted that the "prince on a white horse" and "bad boy" tropes that once worked in 2005 don’t quite match today's sensibilities, leading to edits in the 2024 version.

Hyun Bin humbly acknowledged his gratitude for his successful career and hit works, saying, "It’s wonderful and I am grateful to have so many hit works. I’ve been fortunate to work with amazing writers, directors, and actors. Thanks to them, I’ve received a lot of attention and love." He also shared a sense of humility, noting, “But I never know when that luck will come again."

Despite the dramatic shift in perspective on his character, Hyun Bin’s charm and dedication remain strong. Fans are eager to see him in his upcoming film Harbin (directed by Woo Min-ho), set to be released on the 24th.
