Question: Who is the member with the biggest influence on you?
Jin: Personally, Jimin is my biggest motivation. I think he is already close to perfect on stage. So it makes me wonder how he can continue to push himself ever so endlessly. He inspires me to practice dancing. Every time I feel like giving up, I look to Jimin. And I would find him practicing.
4. 2017 CREA Magazine Interview
During BTS’s interview with CREA Magazine, Jimin blew the interviewer’s mind with his persistent attitude.
The members agreed that Jimin is the most hardworking one. This is true; Even as they were in between shoots and on standby, Jimin would occupy an empty room and take on practicing a choreography or a song. Not once during my interview with them was Jimin kind of relaxed and lounging.

7. 2014 Haruhana Magazine Interview
When BTS members were asked to look back and pick one thing that even they find impressive about themselves, for an interview with the Japanese Haruhana Magazine, J-Hope did not hesitate to hype up Jimin.
I always found Jimin very impressive. When he first started, he kind of lacked that 2%. It wasn’t clear whether he would be able to survive and debut with the group. But now, he’s a great dancer and boasts amazing stage presence — like everyone knows. That is purely the result of his diligence. He would always practice, practice, practice… and I found that very inspiring. There is so much to learn from him.
