BTS member Jimin unveiled his first album “FACE”, along with a music video for “Like Crazy,” which is partly inspired by the movie of the same name.
The song opens and closes with whispered dialogue — “I think we could last forever,” “What’s the point?” — From the 2011 romantic drama that starred Anton Yelchin, Felicity Jones, and Jennifer Lawrence.
The release of the six-track album was paired with a visit to Jimmy Fallon’s “The Tonight Show”, where Jimin joked that his favorite nickname is Jimin Fallon and explained that his latest musical project “looks back on the emotions I felt chronologically throughout the pandemic.”

In an interview with Consequence, Jimin admitted each of his bandmates had been anxious about going solo during the group’s hiatus, but “their results were absolutely great.”
The K-pop star highlighted: “I don’t want to be an embarrassment to my members. I want to be a proud member of BTS” before hinting that the album will explore “how I overcame… If people understand the emotions I’m trying to express, I’ll consider the album a success.”
