Kapanlagi.com - Park Jimin is the lead vocal and lead dancer in BTS who always attracts attention. It has been reported that Jimin has sparked global interest in the Samyang Foods brand of ramen, which has influenced a sudden increase in sales.

As we know, Samyang Foods is a famous instant noodle brand in South Korea, founded on September 15, 1961. The company was founded by Jeon Jung Yoon. He is known as an International South Korean food manufacturer and the first instant ramen company in South Korea.

1. The Food Looks Delicious

According to Business Watch Korea, Jimin's global interest increased when they saw the singer of Dynamite with red lips and teary eyes after eating Samyang with spicy stir-fried chicken flavor.

As a result, from July to August, it was reported that the sales of the ramen suddenly increased by 158% in the United States and 33% in China compared to the previous year.

2. Also Tried Ttteokbokki

According to Allkpop, this is not the first time Jimin has contributed to food sales and exports in South Korea. Last year, he became a hot topic after visiting a Tteokbokki (rice cake) shop and reportedly increased sales by 25%.

Certainly, Jimin proves once again how strong his influence and power are in South Korea. It's no wonder that the 25-year-old idol has ranked first in the Brand Idol Reputation Ranking for 15 consecutive months and first in the Idol Gallup for 2 consecutive years.
