Jimin is always in the spotlight for his exceptional skills in vocals and dance. Rookie idols look up to him as a role model and want to be just like him as they carve their career path, because of how much praise and admiration Jimin receives in the music industry as a performer. Dance professionals constantly marvel at his unique skills and technique and his ability to fuse different dance genres to create a signature style only distinctive to him, hence being the focal point of any performance or show. Other non-rookie idols, fans, celebrities of every kind, and the general public also constantly single him out and show their affection for him as an artist and as an individual.
On January 19th, Kim Hyung-jun, a member of the SS501 boy band, specifically mentioned Jimin while talking about BTS, saying he likes Jimin.
The SS501 boy band made its debut in 2005 and was deemed to be among the top boy bands in its heyday. The group has never officially disbanded, but it has been inactive since June 2010 following the expiry of their exclusive contracts with DSP Media, and the members went their separate ways.
Jimin not only catches the attention of active idols, but even members of past top groups in K-pop acknowledge him as a star, which has seen him acquire the title of 'idol of idols.'

Not long ago, on January 13th, Jooan, the main vocalist and lead dancer from the newest boy band T.A.N, had an interview where he named Jimin as his role model. Jooan says that it is really cool to impress the public with dancing, singing, and facial expressions, which is what Jimin is known and praised for. Rookie idols always see him as a book from which to read for a successful career, hence his acquired title of 'rookies' bible.'
He is also considered as a part of the Elite King Dance Line in K-pop, consisting of just three members deemed to be the best dancers in the industry, which shows how much he is admired and held in the highest regard when it comes to his craft [read here]. Moreover, it has become a rite of passage for every main dancer in a rookie group to cover Jimin's performances, which is considered a way to prove their performance capabilities as Jimin is set as the standard in the industry [read here].

Dance professionals never cease to be amazed by Jimin's dancing, either. On January 11th, Kim Junkyung from the Korean national ballet posted a reaction video to one of Jimin's performances. With his experience as a long-time dancer, Junkyung said Jimin is really incredible and that he completely related to Jimin's dance while watching it because of how moving it was and said he wants to do it like Jimin.
It is not the first time that someone mentions the expressiveness of Jimin's dance, which makes the audience feel the emotions conveyed in the song and experience it in a new way altogether. Jimin is known as a 'dance king' and a 'dance god' for such exceptional skills in dance that other dancers may not possess.
This was so difficult to cut because the whole reaction is awesome, Kim Junkyung gave so many insights from his ballerino perspective about what makes Jimin's dancing so amazing!
