The product line developed by BTS‘ Jimin sold out within seconds of being released earlier this week. The collection is part of a project by HYBE, the agency that takes care of the group, called “Artist-Made by BTS”, a collection of merchandise with designs created by each member of the group.
Demand for Jimin’s collection was so great that when it was released, it caused HYBE’s Weverse Shop server to become congested and crash almost instantly, which had not happened with BTS’ previous releases.
Sold out within seconds, the items in the collection were, basically, a purple sweatshirt written “You” in the front and “Never Be Alone” in the back side and a pair of silver hoop earrings.
