BTS performed their Love Yourself: Speak Yourself tour in Brazil in May 2019. During the group’s show on May 25, 2019, Jimin was sick with an incredibly sore throat.

“It’s true that I didn’t do a good job. But I don’t think I was overcome with despair, or regretful or self-critical. I just accepted the circumstances. Of course, I’m sure there were a lot of people who were worried about me, because it affected my performance. I want to grow further and faster so I can show them a really great performance. In my head I was telling the fans, ‘I’ll do better real soon,'” Jimin said in Break the Silence.
