A video released by Dior on the 21st via social media drew attention with a scene of BTS member Jimin trying on a cardigan before taking the stage in Paris, saying, "Will you really become a bird?" as he gathered his resolve. In reality, Jimin soared across the Paris stages on the 17th and 18th with gestures reminiscent of a single bird.

On this day, Dior shared through its official social media account a video showing Jimin trying on custom stage outfits ahead of the 'ARIRANG' world tour's Paris performances. In the video, Jimin appeared delighted while wearing an ivory cardigan featuring long sleeves adorned with dangling tassels. He fluttered the hem of his outfit slightly and declared, "Will you really become a bird?" to reaffirm his determination.

The ivory-colored cardigan, characterized by its elongated sleeves and fringed hems, is a creation by Jonathan Anderson, Dior's creative director.

This look was indeed one of the stage outfits Jimin wore during his Paris performances. Beyond this video, Dior continued to release multiple wearing shots and behind-the-scenes clips, capturing fans' attention.

Jimin performed in the same collection he had worn at Dior's Men's 2027 Summer runway show. During the opening stages of his Paris concerts on the 17th and 18th, he donned various custom-made Dior outfits, including a long jacket with elaborate embroidery evoking an 18th-century prince, hoodies, knit cardigans, and tank tops. Notably, his performance of "Dynamite" while wearing a red Dior hoodie sparked further buzz after French President Emmanuel Macron personally shared it on his Instagram. On that day, Peter Woots, Dior's Global PR Director, also visited the venue in person, drawing attention.

Upon the video's release, fans erupted with enthusiastic reactions. Social media was flooded with comments such as "This level of beauty should be studied academically" and "Dior Prince Jimin," while fan accounts rushed to share the clip, posting messages like "If a new 'Bird Jimin Dior' video drops, I'll definitely hit like." The nickname "Dior Prince Jimin" gained traction, causing related clips to spread rapidly across social media.

Jimin was appointed as Dior's Global Brand Ambassador on January 16, 2023, becoming the first Korean male to hold this position. At the time, there were only four men worldwide serving as Dior's global brand ambassadors. Since then, Jimin has consistently drawn attention by attending every Dior collection show. During last year's Paris Fashion Week, a photo captured a photographer's shocked expression reflected in the backdrop of a photowall, earning him the description "a presence that even surprised Dior." In June this year, he attended the Dior Men's 2027 Summer collection show and was named one of the best-dressed by various fashion media for his embroidered jacket look reinterpreting 18th-century attire, demonstrating an ongoing collaboration with the brand.

BTS concluded its final European tour performances on the 17th and 18th at Paris's Stade de France, drawing a total of 184,000 spectators across two nights with 92,000 attendees per venue. This European tour, held in five cities—Madrid, Brussels, London, Munich, and Paris—mobilized over 710,000 fans overall, marking a fresh start for the world tour set to continue through 2027.
