    On the 20th, their agency, BTOB Company, officially announced the release of the second song "Be Alright" from BTOB's BECOMING PROJECT, along with the promotion schedule.

    The promotional image depicts a house lit up by bright lights on a snowy night, with white snow gently covering the trees and creating a picturesque, cozy year-end atmosphere, which raises anticipation for the new song.

    The BECOMING PROJECT is the first project featuring BTOB Company’s four members—Seo Eunkwang, Lee Minhyuk, Im Hyunsik, and Peniel. The name BECOMING (shortened to BECOM) signifies the process of their works coming together as one album, while showing that the members, who have showcased their individual charms through solo and unit activities, will continue to carry on BTOB's unique emotional style.

    Following the pre-release track "불씨 (Please Stay)" last month, the second song, "Be Alright," will be released on the 25th. A new digital single will also be released in December, and in 2025, a final album combining all the songs will be released to complete the BECOMING PROJECT.

    BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

    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.
