#JIMIN @BTS_twt
From the top of the song, it looks like #JIMIN appears out of nowhere, ready to bring on the death to all of us. His mastery over so many styles of dance is evident here as he combines all the elements, completely making this his own. @BTS_twt
The choreo during the chorus is bold and powerful & not one second of the music is put to waste. Every count is utilized with authority & precision, matching the intensity of the song perfectly. When #JIMIN takes the front, he doesn’t let us breathe for one second. @BTS_twt
To produce this level of intensity is not always an easy task. While on set it can feel awkward if the music isn’t loud enough or you catch a glimpse of a bored crew member. When the music ends, the drone is so loud & positions are held until they yell CUT! PROS! #JIMIN @BTS_twt
The next part of the choreo should be mentioned because it’s just cool. During Yoongi’s rap, all the members line up behind the drum line, and take over as if they are now the drummers. It produces a great visual and just added a great element to the performance. @BTS_twt
Then, in comes #JIMIN one more time and he’s not here to play. He’s confident that he’s not taking any prisoners and he delivers. He has a knack of creating intensity in just his eyes and facial expression and he is going full force here. @BTS_twt
Here #JIMIN just shows up right behind Jungkook to sing his part and poof, he’s gone again. But wait… reminiscent of NO and Bulletproof Pt. 2, here he comes and you know it’s about to get serious. @BTS_twt
#JIMIN easily delivers exactly the intensity needed for this segment, from each stomp, clap, and look into the camera, he destroyed this part. The arms alone are incredible beyond all reason. He alternates his arms and the power for speed comes from his center @BTS_twt
The next segment kept reminding me of Dionysus, as it does seem similar. #JIMIN @BTS_twt
#JIMIN seriously made the decision to annihilate everyone during this film. Look at how far he arches his back! Then… then, he’s front and center with choreo that looks like FIRE and DIMPLE had a love child…and his mission is complete… @BTS_twt
#JIMIN knows his power and talent and it shows in this film! His intensity is perfect, the execution of the movements is spot on and he owned every single second of this performance. I’m going to go cry now. @BTS_twt

[Who - Dance Analysis Thread]

Jimin’s new song Who is a certifiable HIT. He delivered not only powerhouse vocals but slick dance moves all throughout the MV.

Let’s take a closer look at some of my favourite parts!
#JIMIN #지민
#Jimin_Who #Jimin_MUSE
Let’s start with his signature pose, where he has full awareness of his body lines. Notice when he reaches up, how his weight settles onto the back hip, creating an angle at his waist. His left shoulder comes down at the same time, creating an opposite angle with his upper torso.
These angles give the pose so much life and show off his lines to best advantage. Notice how open his chest is and how his head is also angled to elongate his neck. Image

[Dance Analysis Thread]

AHHHHH this Face-Off choreo is SO Jimin-coded!!! The fast-slow timing, the tension in his movements, his elegant hands and feet, and the way you can just FEEL the story he’s trying to tell with his body and expressions.

Let’s discuss!!
#JIMIN #지민
This fast-slow combo is deadly. It feels as though he’s incorporating both street style and contemporary techniques. His dimestops play a role - that ability to stop his entire body in the middle of a movement as if frozen.
But also something often used in contemporary - the hit and melt. This is where you strike a hard movement that comes to an abrupt halt, as if coming up against a wall. And then you melt away from it, gracefully and slowly going into your next move.

[Dance Analysis Thread]

Jimin has an incredible talent for tensing his whole body all at once, bringing it to a sudden stop as if someone just hit pause and caught him in a freeze frame. This is a street style technique known as a dimestop.
#JIMIN #지민 @BTS_twt
You might be familiar with this amazing set of stops Jimin hits in the middle of Black Swan. It takes a ridiculous amount of body control to tense everything to a stop each time. #JIMIN
Notice how he keeps the top of his head completely in place even as he rotates it and releases his shoulders from the freeze. This all adds to the effect that he is stuck in place. #JIMIN

#JIMIN always gives 100% for this part in Idol, but there’a a moment after the kick where he puts his arms down and looks to the side, as if he is completely relaxed, almost taking a break in the music as if it’s no big deal, while his legs are still moving. It’s phenomenal.
Jimin’s knees are bent, his shoulders slouched ever so slightly forward - he’s released all the tension from his body in this moment, in the middle one of the most high-octane parts of the choreo. The music is going FAST and he’s able to slow everything down for a split second. Image
It makes it seem like there’s a breath in the music. And then in the next second, Jimin’s brought back the tension, jumping into the next transition. The way he’s able to play with music, his movement and body language like this just adds to the dynamic quality of his dancing. 💜

[Jimin Black Swan BB Solo Dance Analysis Thread]

Jimin served us a veritable feast of choreography once again in the Black Swan Behind the Scenes Bangtan Bomb. Let’s take a closer look at some of the new moves and sequences we weren’t able to see before.

#JIMIN #지민 @BTS_twt
Having been blessed with multiple versions of Jimin’s solo dance now, it’s clear that he choreographed and perfected a few staple sequences and then freestyled to fill in some of the transitions. #JIMIN
First, let’s take a look at this iconic sequence and how well it can be adapted for the different musical versions of Black Swan. You can see from the ON:E sequence that Jimin draws it out to fit the slower music, using twice as much time for the same move in the beginning.
