BTS's Jimin warns of pandemic 'getting worse', sparks awareness drive as he urges fans to wear face masks
BTS' Jimin tweeted about the Covid-19 pandemic "getting worse" and soon sent a wave of worry among fans as they shared his tweet and raised more awareness about not to stop wearing masks.
Jimin of the Kpop septet tweeted a short message on Saturday, December 12, morning: "The situation of the outside is getting worse day by day. Please wear the facial mask well and take care always when you go out. We should be careful and careful and I hope the situation will be better as soon as possible. #JIMIN." By ‘situation’ he may have referred to the recent surge of Covid positive cases among several Kpop stars along with the overall increase in Covid-19 numbers around the world.

Recently, BTS members were seen strictly following the safety protocols of Covid-19 at MAMA 2020 where they appeared to take awards. They were seen wearing masks at all times and maintaining safe distance. Their responsible behavior was hailed on social media as BTS have a global influence on their massive fanbase. This isn’t the first time that the ‘Filter’ crooner has used social media to spead awareness about Covid-19.
During his ‘birthday special live’ in October, the ‘Friends’ singer spoke about how pained he felt thinking about all the children who are completely stripped off their little joys of life as they stay cooped up inside their homes due to the pandemic. He also urged elders to handle children sympathetically, given their understanding of the world is not the same as adults. BTS' Jungkook also requested his fans to wear masks in a number of Vlive sessions during the last few months.
✨ Yesterday during the Vlive, Jimin mentioned how bad he felt for the children during this situation.
