THROWBACK: When Alec Benjamin CONFESSED his wish to collaborate with BTS member Jimin

We are looking back at September 2019, when American singer-songwriter Alec Benjamin got candid about his wishes to collaborate with BTS’s Jimin. In an interview via Soompi, Benjamin was asked about his upcoming music and any future collaborations, to which the musician shared that he had a two-month break coming up to work on his album and hopefully work with other artists. “I have some plans to collaborate with Khalid and also Jimin from BTS,” he revealed.

The singer was also asked about his famous concert in Korea when BTS member Jimin showed up to watch the show. Alec Benjamin explained, “I invited him to my concert because he had made a playlist online and he had 12 songs on it, and like six or seven of those songs were mine. So I was really thrilled to find out that he was a fan. When I was on my way to Korea, I had no way of communicating with him, I didn’t have his phone number or anything, so I was just like, ‘Well, I’ll just tweet BTS and ask him to come.'”

He laughed and said that his manager soon called him and told him to take the tweet down since Jimin was planning to come to the show and it would be “complete chaos” if people knew. “I deleted the tweet and he came to the show,” said Alec Benjamin. “Now we’re just like talking and friends, and he’s like, ‘We should make a song together.'”
