In 2020 as well, he praised Jimin for breaking down the Covid-19 rules during one of his Vlives for children to understand. Sharing a video of the same on Twitter, Dr Tedros said, “What a very thoughtful message from @BTS_twt Jimin - 감사합니다 (thank you)! Children are indeed affected by #COVID19 restrictions, we should do our best to help them understand the situations, and support and comfort them. Together, we will end this pandemic. #BeHelpful.”
