BTS (Bangtan Sonyeondan)'s Jimin caused laughter with his bewildered appearance during an unexpected 19+ talk in a skit with comedian Lee Suji. On the 24th, a skit video featuring Jimin was released on the YouTube channel 'Hot Issue.' In the content, Jimin transformed into a dance instructor and met with Lee Suji (playing the role of Seo Yongja), the director of the beauty salon 'Rendezvous,' and the customers. On this day, Jimin appeared as a 'returning instructor who studied abroad in America and Europe,' showcasing his quick-witted talk. He naturally warmed up the atmosphere while teaching steps to the beauty salon customers from the beginning. However, the mood quickly took an unexpected turn. Lee Suji's spontaneous remarks and bold physical contact drew laughter from the scene, especially as she requested the 'Dip' move, leaving Jimin bewildered. As the conversation continued beyond the script into 19+ talk, Jimin couldn't hide his bewilderment and laughed, saying, 'I feel dizzy.' Kim Geum-soon and Lee Hyun-jung joined in, competing around Jimin, further heating up the situation. They continued with extreme reactions, demanding personal lessons from Jimin and pushing each other, completing the unique humor of the skit. Even in the bewildering situation, Jimin led the flow with his characteristic smile and witty reactions. Amid the relentless approaches from the beauty salon customers, he showcased his variety sense without being shaken. In the latter half of the video, another instructor appeared, changing the atmosphere, but Jimin maintained a strong presence as a 'one pick' until the end, leaving a strong impression. The video received a hot response online immediately after its release. Net users commented, 'It's refreshing to see Jimin in such content,' 'Even a Billboard No. 1 singer works this hard,' and 'I'm even happier because it's a solo YouTube appearance.' Recently, Jimin shared his current status by revealing his weight of 59.7 kg, and through this skit, he showcased a different charm, attracting attention.
