Jimin of BTS took to V Live, keeping the promise he made few days ago that he would be back soon.

After a brief dancing intro, he greeted viewers and confided that he was “completely bare-faced,” taking off his mask to show some breakouts.

He went through the live chat feed from viewers making comments and then stood up and turned to show his outfit: A checkered blazer over a black T-shirt and black pants.

“This must be the first time you’re seeing this. I’ve bought a jacket to wear to the airport ... when it gets warmer. But there is no chance of me wearing it today,” said Jimin acknowledging that he usually wears sweats.

He assured fans that he could stay for about an hour on V Live and while livestreaming, he also had a lunch box meal of pork cutlet and fried kimchi rice. The artist was especially happy to spot a fried egg on top of the rice.

“I love eggs, there are so many different dishes you can make. But my favorite is fried egg,” he said.

The bandmates of TXT readied themselves for a feast with the ingredients they earned through a series of games in the 12th episode of their reality show.

While Beomgyu and Hueningkai were busy grilling the meat and shrimps, Taehyun, who said he would be making instant noodles, stealthily took a picture and handed his Polaroid camera back to the staff. I’m done with my mission, Taehyun said, making Beomgyu wonder if he should not have volunteered to grill.

Meanwhile, Hueningkai kept teasing Yeonjun and Soobin with shrimp, pretending to feed them and then taking the shrimp away. Soobin kindly told the youngest to help himself but after a few attempts, snatched one and started chewing when Hueningkai took a picture of him doing so.

“Was that why you have been so obsessed with shrimps? I haven‘t eaten any so you could have more!” said the leader.
