BTS Jimin Performance Pin from VantaeshopFR

Nothing to Disclose

Hiya guys! Whew it's been a heck of a week/month already, like seriously is it me or is time flying? I'm having a hard time keeping up, so this week you will probably receive more posts than you usually would. But whose complaining, right? Haha well I hope no one is complaining. For today I'm finally here with the first K-Pop related post of the new year. I'm so excited! Of course it's BTS Jimin related because what else is new, haha. Now this is an item that I had for a while, but I still wanted to take the time to share it because the craftsmanship is phenomenal. It's another pin to add to my growing collection. And growing is an understatement, I think in the span of a few months I have become completely addicted to collecting BTS Jimin pins. That's my way of telling you that I'll have a bunch of more pin purchases to share soon. 

The pin I'm sharing with you is from the shop VantaeshopFR, which is based in France. My purchase was part of the original pre-order and as a Grade A retailed for $14.38 after the conversion (not including shipping). As of right now it looks like it is sold-out in the shop and I'm not sure if it'll be restocked. However the shop has tons of other gorgeous pins (some of which I will share at a later point) both for pre-order and in-stock sale. The marker is fantastic about updating her customers especially on Instagram, so if pins is something you are interested in I recommend keeping an eye on her shop.

This pin takes it's inspiration from the BTS performance at the 2018 Melon Music Awards where to the intro of the BTS song Idol, Jimin performed a traditional Korean-style fan dance. Whether you're a fan of K-Pop/BTS or not it's definitely an incredible sight to see. You can watch the performance here. The maker included a photo of Jimin during the performance so I had to line it side to side with the pin. It's so perfect! It really nailed the inspiration - from the clothes to the detail of the fans.

The back of the pin showcases the makers name and it's a detail I have come to really appreciate. Not all of the pins I have purchased come with this detail and I just find that frustrating when trying to look back on my purchases. So just a small plus in my book that often gets overlooked, but is very much something I noticed and appreciate. It's really all about the small details and maker touches when it comes to pins.

One of my favorite things when it comes to my pin posts are the macros. The craftsmanship really captivated me from the get-go and no photo better shows that than this close up.

Isn't that macro swoon worthy?! The details of the hands, neck, and especially that of the fans. Oof. It's perfection all around. This is a Grade A pin so it's really meant to be so close to perfect as possible and I'm not disappointed. I can't spot a single flaw.

That's all I have to share with you, a short but sweet post to get us thru another day. Like I mentioned before, I'm hoping to catch up this week and post nearly everyday. Fingers crossed. Let me know if there is something in particular you'd like me to focus on posting about. Stay safe and I'll catch you next time xoxo Moonbaes.
