During the performance, he showcased high notes and synchronized choreography, prompting viewers watching the halftime show to ask about the blonde-haired performer.

Celebrities also mentioned Jimin. Billboard News host Tetris Kelly posted on X (formerly Twitter) before the halftime show began: "JIMIN AND MADONNA COMINGGG!!!!"

Popular streamer Neon reacted to Jimin's sustained high notes by saying, "THERE IS A GIRL IN THE GROUP?" and upon spotting Jimin returning after the performance, shouted, "OH MY GOD, JIMIN! JIMIN!"

After resting in Korea, Jimin is scheduled to continue his world tour 'ARIRANG' with performances at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, USA, on August 2 and 3 (Korean time).
