In a historic and breathtaking moment for both fashion and K-pop, BTS’s Minji made global headlines as the first-ever K-pop idol to perform at the iconic Victoria’s Secret fashion show, held in New York City in 2023.

The sold-out runway event, which marked Victoria’s Secret’s long-anticipated return to live performances, featured stunning supermodels, extravagant lingerie designs, and a star-studded lineup of performers. But it was Minji, dressed in a custom Victoria’s Secret outfit layered with lace. Minji performed five tracks from her critically acclaimed debut solo album, Pretty Possessive, each accompanied by her own choreography for the respective song.

While BTS has performed on countless prestigious stages, this moment was uniquely Minji’s. Fans praised her for “breaking boundaries between music, fashion, and femininity.” Many Korean and international outlets called it a landmark moment in both K-pop and Western fashion history.

Netizens applauded her professionalism and artistry:

“Minji isn’t just representing K-pop, she’s redefining what it means to be a global artist.” — Twitter/X user @/minjinator95

“The visuals, vocals, styling, the stage presence… this woman is unreal. A true icon.” — Instagram fan comment

Top fashion outlets, including Vogue, ELLE, and WWD, have called her appearance “one of the best Victoria’s Secret performances of all time,” comparing it to past appearances by artists like Rihanna, Ariana Grande, and The Weeknd.

With Minji’s album already topping international charts and whispers of VMA buzz, her Victoria’s Secret performance only adds to the momentum of her solo era.

BTS’s Minji Goes Viral for GAP Commercial — “Milkshake” Ad Draws Global Praise

Source: Soompi | Date: September 2025

BTS’s Minji has once again taken the internet by storm, this time for her appearance in a retro-inspired GAP commercial that has fans and fashion critics alike raving.

In the now-viral advertisement, Minji struts confidently down a sunlit urban street to the tune of “Milkshake” by Kelis. Styled in classic low-rise jeans, a white cropped tank, gold hoops, and an oversized denim jacket, Minji channels early 2000s cool with effortless charisma. The ad, inspired by GAP’s iconic “My Milkshake Brings All the Boys to the Yard” campaign, marks a bold and nostalgic return for the brand, and Minji is its new face.

The moment the commercial aired online, social media exploded. Fans flooded X (formerly Twitter), TikTok, and Instagram with clips of Minji’s catwalk, calling her “the Gen Z it-girl,” and “this generation’s style icon,". The hashtags #MinjiForGAP, #MilkshakeAd, and #MinjiGapAd began trending within minutes, with international stars reposting and praising the ad.

The campaign also drew attention for its diverse cast and bold styling, but it’s Minji’s cool, effortless energy and undeniable star power that carried the 30-second spot into viral territory. American outlets like Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and Billboard have already spotlighted the ad, and fans are hoping this marks the beginning of more global brand partnerships for the youngest member of BTS.

BTS’ Minji Makes History with Dual Grammy Nominations for “Espresso” and “ATP” ft. Bruno Mars

Source: Soompi | Date: November 2025

K-pop history has just been made.

On November 10th, 2025, the Recording Academy officially announced this year’s Grammy nominations—and among the most celebrated artists was none other than Minji, BTS’ youngest member and rising solo icon. Minji earned not one, but two Grammy nominations for her solo work, making her the first female K-pop idol to do so.

Her breakout R&B-pop single “Espresso”, which dominated global charts earlier this year, was nominated for Best Pop Solo Performance. But what truly caught fans and critics by surprise was her collaborative hit “ATP” featuring Bruno Mars, nominated for Record of the Year.

The soulful, retro-infused track “ATP” became a global anthem following its release in July, blending Minji’s smooth vocals with Bruno Mars’ signature flair. The track soared on both the Billboard Hot 100 and international charts, and was praised for its rich instrumentation, timeless groove, and sultry, confident delivery.

Though BTS as a group has previously been nominated for several Grammy categories, including Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for “Dynamite” and “Butter,” this moment marks a new chapter in Minji’s individual journey. Her solo recognition proves not only her versatility as an artist, but also the growing global impact of K-pop as a genre and cultural force.

ARMY and solo Minji fans flooded social media with celebratory messages, using hashtags like #GRAMMYxMINJI, #ATPwithBruno, and #ESPRESSO.

The BTS member has not yet publicly responded to the nominations, but industry insiders report she was “overwhelmed with emotion” and expressed deep gratitude to fans, Bruno Mars, and her fellow BTS members for their support.

With Grammy night fast approaching, all eyes will be on Minji—not just as a member of BTS, but as a powerhouse solo artist carving her own path on the world stage.

Congratulations, Minji! 🌟

Stay tuned for more updates as the GRAMMYs approach.

nicolejeon 여러분께 얼마나 감사하고 감사한지 말로 다 표현할 수 없어요. 처음 시작했을 때, 소통에 얼마나 어려움을 겪었는지 기억나요. 한국어를 전혀 못 해서 하루하루를 겨우 버텨냈어요. 한때는 그냥 그만두고 집으로 돌아가 사랑하는 어머니의 따뜻한 품에 안기고 싶었던 기억이 나요.

제 멤버들은 대부분 영어를 할 줄 몰랐지만, 그 힘든 시기를 헤쳐나가는 데 큰 도움을 줬어요. 저는 남은 인생을 그분들께 보답하며 살 거예요. 저에게 한국어를 가르쳐 주시기 위해 휴식을 포기해 주신 분들, 제가 다이어트에 어려움을 겪을 때 함께 음식을 나눠주신 분들, 그리고 규칙을 어기고 영어로 대화해 주신 분들께요.

이제 제 멤버이자 가족 같은 이 놀라운 분들을 만났으니, 힘든 일도 겪을 때마다 항상 저와 함께해 주신 분들과 함께했고, 영원히 감사할 거예요. 🤍

Translation: I could never express how grateful and thankful I am for you all. When I first started, I remember how much I struggled with communication. I could not speak any Korean and was just barely getting through the day. I remember once I just wanted to quit and move back home, into the comforting arms of my beloved mother. My members, even if most of them couldn’t speak English, helped me through that dark period of time. I will spend the rest of my life repaying them for the times they gave up their breaks to teach me Korean, for sharing their own food when I was stuck on a diet, for breaking the rules just to speak to me in English. Now that I have met these incredible individuals who are not only my members but my family, through thick and thin, they were with me, and I will forever be grateful for them 🤍

rkive 우리가 너를 자랑스러워해, 아가야. 정말 잘 자랐고, 정말 자랑스러워💜

Translation: We are the ones who are proud of you, baby. You grew up so well, and I couldn't be prouder💜

j.m 정말 잘 자랐고, 난 항상 네가 자랑스러워. 오빠는 네가 필요한 건 뭐든 항상 도와줄 거고, 오빠는 항상 너를 사랑할 거야🤍

Translation: You grew up so well, and I'm always proud of you. Oppa will always help you with anything you need, and oppa will always love you.🤍

jin 민지야, 울기엔 너무 이르다. 오빠는 널 사랑하고, 넌 방탄소년단이 방탄소년단인 이유야. 그리고 네가 없으면 방탄소년단도 없을 거야🥹

Translation: Minji, it's too early for me to cry. Oppa loves you, and you are the reason bts is bts, and without you, there will be no bts.🥹

agustd 당신은 내 가족이에요. 매일 아침 당신을 만나고 당신의 성장을 도울 수 있기를 기대하며 깨어나고 싶게 만들어준 당신께 영원히 감사드립니다.

Translation: You are my family, and I am forever in your debt for helping me want to wake up every day because I look forward to seeing you and helping you grow.

thv 너무 귀여워, 자기야, 오빠가 너를 사랑해 그리고 당신이 지금까지 얼마나 발전했는지 정말 자랑스러워요💜

Translation: You're so cute, baby, oppa loves you and is so very proud of how far you have come💜

uarmyhope 넌 깨닫지 못했을 때조차도 항상 강했어. 민지야, 네가 우리에게 얼마나 큰 기쁨과 빛을 가져다주는지 잊지 마🫰🏻

Translation: You’ve always been strong, even when you didn’t realize it. Don’t forget how much joy and light you bring to us, too, Minji🫰🏻

mnijungkook 넌 우리에게 갚을 필요가 없었어. 그냥 너답게 있는 것만으로도 충분해. 무슨 일이 있어도 우리는 항상 널 지켜줄 거야❤️

Translation: You’ve never needed to repay us. Just being you is more than enough. We’ll always look out for you, no matter what❤️
