In 2016, Jimin was ranked as the 14th most popular idol in an annual survey
conducted by Gallup Korea. He ranked 7th in 2017, before ranking 1st consecutively in
2018 and 2019. Jimin is the only idol to top the survey for two
consecutive years. In 2018, Jimin was the ninth most-tweeted about
celebrity and the eighth most-tweeted about musician in the world. He was
picked as the seventeenth best boyband member in history by The
Guardian. From January to May 2018, Jimin won the monthly Peeper x
Billboard Award for "Top K-Pop Artist – Individual". Peeper x Billboard is a
collaboration between the Peeper social media app and Billboard Korea that
collects fan votes for their favorite K-pop artists and announces monthly
winners. The prize was a donation to the charity UNICEF in his name.
In
2019, he received a plaque of appreciation from the Cultural Conservation
Society for performing buchaechum, a traditional Korean fan dance, during the
2018 Melon Music Awards and helping spread the dance outside of Korea. As
of 2021, Jimin has become the first idol to top the brand reputation ranking
for individual boy group idols for 34 consecutive months.
