BTS member Jimin is once again proving his unbeatable star power in Japan!

Jimin has been ranked No.1 in the “Top K-pop Male Idol of the First Half of 2025” by Japanese fans through a poll held by popular Hallyu media outlet Danmee.

The voting took place from June 17 to July 2, and Jimin claimed the top spot with 5,703 votes out of 14,238 total, scoring an impressive 40.05% of the support.

This fan poll only allows one vote per person to ensure fairness and reflects actual interest based on idol activities in Korea, brand reputation index, monthly mentions on X (formerly Twitter), and views on related Danmee content and music videos.

Jimin’s first-place win marks yet another milestone in his incredible popularity in Japan. Notably, he has held the No.1 spot in Danmee’s monthly rankings for 26 consecutive months as of May — a record that speaks volumes about his loyal fanbase.

That’s not all — Jimin also secured first place in the June BOYS Ranking on the K-pop voting app iDOKI, earning 1,965,989 votes. This marks his 13th win on the platform.

As a reward, a special advertisement featuring Jimin will be displayed on the Nagoya Scramble Vision screen in Japan for seven days, celebrating his popularity with even more exposure.

With back-to-back wins and millions of fan votes, Jimin continues to dominate K-pop rankings and capture hearts around the world.
