On November 24, BTS members Jimin and Jungkook suddenly made a public arrival at the Gimpo National Airport, leaving fans curious about their schedule.

It was known that the duo was traveling to Japan. However, nobody was sure exactly for what reason. While some predicted it could be to attend the MAMA Awards, others bet on possibilities like a documentary or a travel show filming schedule.
Amidst the chatter about their destination, both Jungkook and Jimin drew attention to their airport fashion. The BTS maknae went for a “boyfriend vibe” with an oversized hoodie layered with a black jacket and paired with casual denim. He even sold out the hoodie immediately after making an appearance in it!
But as for Jimin, what seems to have drawn sustained attention that day was his one-of-its-kind bag!
As the global brand ambassador of Dior, it was not surprising that Jimin was carrying a cross-body bag from the brand. The specific piece he was repping is the Dior “Hit The Road Bag with Strap.”

However, Jimin’s version of the piece was customized in the most Jimin-like manner. Fans noticed that there were two star-shaped charms hanging from the strap, giving the bag a more distinct character.

But soon enough, they discovered that these charms were actually the star-shaped tags that Dior typically uses in its packaging!
