BTS' agency Big Hit Music said Jimin will talk about various things, including a solo album, with Jimmy Fallon, the host of the program, at the Jimmy Fallon Show.
Jimin is the first BTS member to appear on the show alone. Seven members of BTS appeared on the show on July 2021. At that time, BTS sang the hit songs 'Butter' and 'Permission to Dance'.
Big Hit Music said, "When Jimin appeared on the Jimmy Fallon Show in 2021, he worked well with the host and showed Jimin's unique sense of entertainment, leading the atmosphere of the program pleasantly." This is why he is expected to make his first appearance as a solo artist," he expected.
As BTS members such as Jin and J-Hope have left the military one after another, the remaining members are actively engaged in solo activities to soothe fans' hearts.
