BTS' RM gifts Jimin a hat, compares look to his 2014 American Hustle Life era: ‘Park Jimin, please grow older'
Jimin's LA stroll with RM's gift
In a new Instagram post, Jimin posted a series of snapshots walking through Los Angeles, captioning it: 'A gift from Namjoon hyung'. The 'gift' in question — a sleek hat — came from RM himself, who responded with a playful comment which translated to, 'Park Jimin, please grow older'. The post, set to RM's track Still Life, gave fans major nostalgia as Jimin's visuals channelled his debut era.
RM later deepened the nostalgia by sharing a throwback of a young Jimin from BTS's 2014 reality show American Hustle Life on his Instagram Story, a nod to how far they've come.

Jimin cheers on J-Hope from afar
Adding to the emotional rollercoaster, Jimin also posted a short video watching J-Hope's electrifying Lollapalooza set in Berlin via livestream. Shirtless and clearly hyped, Jimin playfully mimicked Hobi's energy, raising his arm and writing, 'I took mine off too, hyung!!!' — a moment that had fans grinning ear to ear.

BTS 2026 comeback
Recently, RM was spotted leaving South Korea solo for the US, teasing something in the works. A day later, SUGA, Jimin, and Jungkook were seen at Incheon International Airport, reportedly also headed stateside. While RM didn't reveal why the others were delayed, anticipation is growing as BTS is set to reunite and work on new music in the US for their long-awaited spring 2026 comeback.
With Jin on his solo tour and the rest of the members slowly gathering in Los Angeles, the countdown has unofficially begun. BTS may be on hiatus, but their presence, online and in each other's lives, is as powerful as ever.

Taylor Barnard (Image credit: Instagram) It was Taylor Barnard's rookie season this year, and the NEOM McLaren driver put up a fantastic performance by temporarily making it to the top three in the Formula E Driver Standings by ousting the much more experienced Porsche driver Antonio Felix Da Costa. He was, however, ousted from the top three at the London E-Prix as Jaguar's Nick Cassidy went on to register three consecutive wins. Barnard took to Instagram to share his feelings on losing out on the top three in his first-ever season and his claim to the championship. Taylor Barnard on losing top three spot in Formula E World Championship Taking to Instagram after the London E-Prix, Barnard wrote, 'London wasn't what we hoped for, easily being the toughest weekend of our season.

He further wrote, 'As the season closes, I want to say a massive thank you to the entire team, both trackside and behind the scenes, for everything this season. Finishing P4 in the Drivers' Championship and coming into the final weekend with a shot at runner-up is something to be proud of.' Also adding a note for teammate Sam Bird, as NEOM McLaren withdrew from Formula E after the end of the season, Barnard wrote, '@sambird_official it wasn't the weekend you deserved either. You've been a huge part of my season both on and off the track, and I'm grateful for everything. You deserved more. To all the Papaya fans, thank you for the incredible support in our final race together. You always go above and beyond. ' Fans hail Taylor Barnard for his fantastic rookie season Reacting to his post, a fan wrote, 'An incredible debut season, huge congrats and excited to see where you go next!'
