BTS member Jimin has once again topped the Star Ranking Male Idol category.
In the 201st round of the Star Ranking Male Idol vote, which was held from 3:01 PM on August 28 to 3:00 PM on September 4, Jimin took first place, beating out 2PM’s Junho and Jin. Jimin won with 55,443 votes, followed by Junho in second place with 30,848 votes, and Jin in third place with 16,032 votes.
Star Ranking is a voting-based chart where fans directly vote for their favorite stars to determine the rankings. When voting via mobile, fans can also receive a voting certificate, and depending on the results, stars are given a variety of benefits.
A star who wins first place for four consecutive weeks is featured in an outdoor billboard advertisement. Fans of a star who achieves this can also organize a support project for an outdoor billboard ad video. Suggestions can be submitted to Star News via the official email (star@mtstarnews.com).
The 202nd round of Star Ranking Male Idol voting will be held from 3:01 PM on September 4 to 3:00 PM on September 11.
Meanwhile, BTS is reportedly working on an album with the goal of a full group comeback in March next year.
Recently, Jimin’s side addressed the dating rumors with Song Da-eun, which have been raised multiple times since 2022. On August 31, BigHit Music stated,
“We have refrained from commenting in order to respect Jimin’s private life and the individual mentioned in connection with it. However, as speculative reports and false rumors about the artist’s personal life have continued, we are inevitably clarifying the minimum factual relationship.”
This marks the first time BigHit Music has released an official statement regarding the dating rumors between the two. Ultimately, Jimin’s side admitted to the past relationship with Song Da-eun but clarified that it is no longer ongoing.
“The artist did have mutual feelings with the individual and maintained a relationship in the past, but that was years ago, and they are not dating now,” the agency emphasized.
BigHit Music added,
“We ask that people refrain from reckless speculation about private matters. We sincerely request that you avoid actions that could cause harm to the artist or the individual mentioned.”
