Jimin becomes the first BTS member whose Photo-folio received a 3rd round of pre-orders and sold out in Japan, proving his immense popularity in the country

As much as Jimin's global popularity is always a hot topic, it is particularly emphasized in specific countries like South Korea and Japan, where his influence is at the top. Anything associated with him will always generate overwhelming traffic, and any items associated with him sell out at lightning speed, both online and offline. BTS has recently released individual photo-folio projects, and Jimin's insurmountable popularity, specifically in Japan, was on display yet again, going by the super high demand for his photo-folio in the country.

On October 8th, it was noted that Jimin's photo-folio had gone out of stock in the Japan Fan Club store. Of note is that this was the third round of pre-orders for the photo-folio, having sold out the first two preorder rounds all within the first 24 hours of release, both on Japan Fan Club and on Universal Music Store! As seen, demand for his photo-folio is over the roof.

By so doing, Jimin became the only member whose photo-folio was restocked for a third round of pre-orders in the country even before 24 hours had lapsed, and he is now the only one to sell out that 3rd round too, proving his unparalleled popularity and overwhelming brand power in the country.

As previously reported, on the release of the photo-folio, Jimin had occupied the top two positions on the Best Seller list on Japan's Universal Music store, and he also occupied the top 3 spots on the most viewed items in the same store. This shows the immense traffic volume to the online store just because of Jimin.

Arguably, Jimin has always been Japan's favorite K-pop idol, going by the different instances where his influence in the country has been demonstrated.

For example, younger Japanese people aspire to be K-pop idols because of their love for Jimin; numerous prominent figures and celebrities in the country constantly express their love and admiration for him, and they say they are his fans; a song he recommended became a viral hit on Spotify Japan for 3 consecutive days even though the song is already 4 years old, Japanese media outlets constantly praise him for his outstanding skills and talent, previous cases have seen individual Jimin items like the GQ magazine cover record the highest sales on different online stores in the country including Yahoo Japan and Amazon Japan, and Japanese netizens have voted him as the best K-pop dancer for two consecutive years, among many other occurrences. Below are previous publications on all of these mentioned events.

There is no doubt regarding Jimin's popularity in the country and his status as a favorite of many irrespective of age, gender, or profession. 

Jimin's photo-folio was also the first one to sell out on Weverse Global and USA.

Congratulations to the Brand King!
