BTS' Jimin is thrilling fans with his more mature vibe as he welcomes the new year of 2026. Recently, Jimin shared several selfies on his personal SNS along with a tangerine emoji, marking his first greeting of the year. The photos were taken at a photo shoot, and Jimin perfectly pulls off Dior's outfits, showcasing his signature luxurious vibe. The look, which utilizes soft shirt styling, neat silhouettes, and items from the Dior pre-fall collection, maximizes Jimin's sophisticated image, enough to elicit comments like, "He's the Dior Prince, after all."

In the pictorial released through the February issue of Vogue Korea, Jimin exudes a calm yet sensual concept, signaling the start of a new season with a relaxed expression and gaze. His naturally flowing hairstyle, understated makeup, and minimal yet detailed outfits perfectly showcase Jimin's refreshing yet romantic charm.
