BTS left for Los Angeles, USA, on November 17 for a line-up of activities, including appearances at the American Music Awards where they are nominees in three categories, including the Artist of the Year award and on various television shows. They will also be having their highly anticipated four-night concert, the first live concert in almost 2 years. While in LA, BTS has been seen to be enjoying the city ahead of their concert by visiting exhibitions and taking walks, and on the 20th, four members (J-hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook) were spotted at the Harry Styles concert.
Jimin particularly caught the attention of fans because of the admirable mannerisms he exhibited during the concert, ranging from being a perfect role model and being responsible for his health and that of others around him, being courteous and polite to those he met and trying his best to make BTS fans who were at the concert to be happy and have a memorable experience by interacting with them. Fans have been praising him for such deeds and showing how happy they are.
For one, fans noticed that Jimin wore his mask all through the concert and only took it off when he drank something. He also looked out for his members and ensured that they had their masks on. Jimin has been very vocal about taking safety precautions all through the pandemic, always encouraging people to have their masks on, a message that saw him praised by the WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus & WHO Social Media Director Sari Setiogi Griberg. BTS has not been in public places in a long time, and so for fans, it was refreshing to see that Jimin was practicing exactly what he kept telling fans all through the pandemic. Once again, Sari Setiogi Griberg and Gabby Stern, who is the Director of Communications at WHO, acknowledged Jimin for being socially responsible even when enjoying himself at the concert.
Exactly. https://t.co/nGDlFlzbNo

Also Jimin never took off his mask duration of the concert except to drink. We love a responsible king.

JIMIN JIMIN you are so mindful of the health and safety of everybody, you reminded Taehyung to keep his mask on, and then Hobi and JK did it as well. I am so happy that even when you are enjoying this concert ur not letting your guards down on safety.

Another point of admiration is how he was very polite in his interactions with people, irrespective of who they are. He bowed during his encounter with Lizzo in the concert venue and also to those he encountered when he was leaving the venue. Additionally, during the concert, when he failed to catch a sunflower thrown to the crowd by Harry, he bowed in a way to show he was respectfully and politely asking for another sunflower. He is always polite to everyone he meets and everyone around him.
Jimin always bows. Doesn't matter when, where or for who. I love his gratitude and politeness 🖤 pic.twitter.com/2dt64IjTjS

Jimin is the most respectful and polite person I've ever seen. And he's a superstar who could just think he doesn't need to bother with these things. Shows how down to earth and true to his principles he's remained.

This sweet interaction between Jimin and Lizzo is so endearing. She’s such a huge Jimin enthusiast and has been very vocal about it for quite some time.

It’s so adorable the way they hugged and Jimin bowed to her! pic.twitter.com/00TE5WIouR

During the concert, he warmed the hearts of fans with his actions, making them feel connected to him by giving them an unforgettable experience. Some mentioned that he was always smiling when looking at them, another fan was ecstatic that Jimin took note of her as she was carrying and waving her ARMY bomb, and he even took a photo of her. Another fan had Jimin looking their way and hyping them up as he noticed the fan talking a video of him with the members. BTS fans in the arena all felt extremely blessed to have attended the concert and got to experience such moments.

Despite wanting to fulfill the obvious dream of so many fans of getting to interact with him, Jimin also tried to make sure that fans got what they came to the concert for. As such, he also reminded those who were looking away from the stage to look ahead where the show was so that they don't miss anything because of him and the other members. He was also being respectful due to the fact that the concert was not theirs but for another artist whom they had also gone to support.
Is just me or is Jimin showing the ppl at the back to turn around and enjoy the concert? https://t.co/qwNlUukFWm

It reminds us of that time at the MAMAs where he politely greeted the fans then pointed at the stage to make sure that they were focusing on the artist performing.
— TJP (@thejiminpost) November 20, 2021
He’s so humble and courteous no matter the situation. 💛 pic.twitter.com/5BJiKhp04G

— Jiminie (@myjiminshi1) November 21, 2021
I am amazed by how #JIMIN behaves. When he attends concerts of friends or other artists, his goal is to support & enjoy the performances. He makes sure that it's not about him but the people on stage because he fully understands the efforts put into by every artist to perform💛

Jimin is the perfect role model and the sweetest and most respectful human being, it is hard not to love him with such qualities.
The way i always hold people to high standards especially when it comes to people who influence and inspire me, Jimin is raising my standards even higher by just being himself you never catch him slipping cause that's his genuine self..polite, humble, kind an amazing human being
— ' (@chrrysof) November 20, 2021
Jimin is collecting everyone left & right for simply being himself. Non-fans mentioning that they decide to love him cause he was the only celebrity who had his mask on the entire time during concert. Jimin is winning hearts for his elegance, kind & sincere mannerism. I love him

Away from the concert, a Korean lawyer in LA spotted Jimin, Jungkook, and j-hope in a restaurant where they were enjoying a meal. He says they were talking quietly and laughing, probably because they were being mindful of the other people in the restaurant. The lawyer further states that his jaw dropped when he saw Jimin, who happened to be one of his biases, and he also says that Jimin was glowing and laughing all the time. Everyone who has met Jimin is always perplexed by his beauty, as so many people have given testament to how ethereal he is.
so a korean lawyer who’s in la said he spotted 3j at a restaurant that sells meat and said they were so polite and jk even bowed at him and that 3j talked quietly and laughed a lot, and said his jaw dropped when he saw jm, he said he was glowing and laughing all the time :((
