BTS‘s Jimin has found himself unexpectedly facing harsh reactions after a recent lighthearted post shared on Instagram.
On January 27, Jimin — who isnt the most active on his social media profiles — shared a playful photo. Inside what appears to be a fitting room with multiple mirrors, the BTS star stood in the middle, creating the illusion of “three Jimins.” In the photo, he is striking a playful pose that emphasizes his behind, which he also referenced in the caption: “Three butts.”
While fans found this hilarious, Korean netizens have claimed his alleged obsession with butts is strange.
“Why is [Jimin] so obsessed with his butt?
He’s been constantly showing it off for a long time now. Kind of strange.”

As the post gained traction, the comment section filled with harsh and dismissive remarks, some of which crossed into personal attacks rather than criticism of the post itself.
- “He’s seriously ugly. If he weren’t BTS, he’d be considered ugly even among regular people. It’s honestly hilarious that guys with no talent and ugly looks can make that much money.”
- “Why even look at him? I’m completely indifferent. He doesn’t even seem like a celebrity, just some nobody.”
- “Sir, you should really consider your age…”
- “Ugh…”
- “Gay?”
Meanwhile, fans have largely dismissed the criticism, pointing out that the post was clearly meant as a joke and nothing more.
