Jimmy Fallon Praises BTS Jimin’s New Song “Promise”
The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon has congratulated BTS’s Jimin on the release of his first self-composed track, “Promise”.
On December 31, BTS’ Jimin shared a post on Twitter announcing that the song he wrote has finally been released.
여러분 오래 기다리셨죠?
드디어 저의 자작곡을 공개하게 되었습니다
저를 위한 곡이지만 여러분을 위한 곡기도 합니다
처음이기도하고 미숙하지만 많이 들어주세요
기다려주신 아미 여러분 감사합니다 ☺️#JIMIN#약속— 방탄소년단 (@BTS_twt) December 30, 2018
“Everyone, you’ve waited long!
My song has finally been revealed.
It’s a song for me but also a song for all of you.
It’s my first and it’s lacking but please listen to it a lot.
Thank you ARMYs for waiting.”— Jimin
The song called “Promise” was composed and written by Jimin himself.
Shortly after “Promise” dropped, #JIMIN started trending at No. 1 worldwide on Twitter, and the song achieved 1 million streams in just over half an hour on SoundCloud.
Not long after the song was released, Jimmy Fallon congratulated Jimin on it, calling himself, Jimin’s “brother”, Chimmy.
Oooohhhhhhhh my man #JIMIN (@BTS_twt) with a solo jam!! I love it. Congrats!! 💜Your brother, Chimmy https://t.co/PW9swb0cJN

Jimmy Fallon first met Jimin when BTS appeared on his show in September. The pair’s adorable rapport, and bonding over their similar names (along with Jimmy Fallon’s BT21 Chimmy headband!) quickly became one of the episode’s highlights.
