J-HOPE of K-pop boy group BTS shared that his fellow member JIMIN was like a ray of sunlight in his darkest times, facing the pressure of performing alone at 'Lollapalooza'.
Following his solo performance at Chicago's annual music 'Lollapalooza' on July 31 (local time), J-HOPE held a live broadcast to interact with his fans.
JIMIN, who flew all the way from Seoul to Chicago to show support for J-HOPE's first-ever solo music festival appearance, accompanied J-HOPE throughout the live broadcast.
J-HOPE said that the pressure of filling the stage all by himself was so intense that he had lost his appetite and could not even sleep well.
To this, JIMIN shared that he decided to go to Chicago and be there for J-HOPE as he felt that J-HOPE would be lonely during his preparation and actual performance on stage.
J-HOPE said, "I didn't have any appetite when I arrived in the U.S., so I barely ate. When JIMIN came, that's when I was finally able to eat."
He added, "While preparing for my performance, it felt like I'm in an endless darkness. JIMIN literally was a ray of sunlight in my darkness. He helped me so much."
Fans who watched the live broadcast commented, "That's what friends are for! This is so heartwarming.", "How can you not love them.", "JIMIN must have felt J-HOPE's pressure. He's truly the best.", and more.
