Jimin recently shared a live performance of his song “Rebirth” and collaboration with Sofia Carson, “Slow Dance”.
Live Performance in Seoul
The video showcases Jimin and Sofia performing against the stunning Seoul skyline. They started with “Rebirth” during sunset, then moved to “Slow Dance” as night fell. The band’s live music added an extra touch.
Both tracks are on his new solo album, MUSE. “Rebirth” is mostly in Korean and talks about longing for love, which ties into “Slow Dance.” A behind-the-scenes clip shows them meeting for the first time before performing. Sofia reassured Jimin, saying, “No, don’t be shy. It’s okay; I’m shy, too.”

Jimin dedicated this release to BTS’ ARMY. He said, “I probably would’ve explained about the songs when the album came out, but I wanted to show you a lot of performances while I’m gone.” He prepared hard with his company members. Jimin began his military service in December 2023, which will last until June 2025.
Gratitude and Farewell
He expressed gratitude, saying, “I’m so grateful that I got to film this pretty video by myself at this amazing place. It was an honor.” He appreciated Sofia traveling to Korea for the shoot. She left right after filming, and he hoped fans would enjoy it, calling it a precious experience.

Muse has been breaking records, along with Stray Kids’ ATE. Rolling Stone noted, “He made his first solo album last year with Face, but Muse is more complex. Like the rest of his bandmates in BTS, Jimin had to put music on hold for his mandatory military service. So he’s returning to his art and his audience but as an older and different person. He keeps singing about people trapped in their isolation because they’re too fearful to share their secrets — in other words, it’s music for a lonely hearts club.”
I think it’s nice that Jimin is thinking of his fans even while he’s away.
