BTS member Jimin had one last surprise for fans this year when he unveiled Friday his new single, “Closer Than This”.

The K-pop idol’s management company BigHit Music announced the single earlier this week via Weverse and described the 28-year-old singer’s newest project as a “heartfelt fan song that encapsulates Jimin’s genuine feelings for ARMY.”

“As we approach the final days of 2023, we hope that ‘Closer Than This,’ with its lyrics conveying Jimin’s love and affection for his fans, will bring you hope and warmth,” BigHit added.

It has been a big year for Jimin, who dropped his EP "Face" in March.

He was also a top nominee at the 2023 MAMA Awards in November with eight nods and crowned best male artist.

“Today we received so many valuable awards today,” he wrote to fans afterward on Weverse.

“Thank you very much to all ARMYs who always support and love us. We will do our best to show you better music and performances. Thank you again and I love you.”

Jimin and bandmate Jungkook began their military service on December 12, according to the Associated Press. In addition, fellow BTS members RM and V enlisted a day earlier, while Suga, Jin, and J-Hope have already been serving.
