BTS Jimin Makes History as His Word “Delulu” Gets Added to the Dictionary
BTS member Jimin has once again left his mark on pop culture as the popular slang word “delulu,” which he often playfully used, has officially been recognized in the Oxford English Dictionary.
“Delulu” is short for “delusional” and is widely used in online fan spaces to describe lighthearted fantasies or overly imaginative thoughts, especially in K-pop communities. Fans often use it in a fun and non-serious way, and Jimin’s consistent use of the term helped push it into the global spotlight.
The Oxford English Dictionary recently updated its list of new words, and “delulu” made the cut, a move that many see as proof of how internet and pop culture slang continues to influence language at the highest level.
Fans flooded social media after the dictionary announcement, celebrating with posts like, “Jimin is truly a cultural icon,” and “Only Jimin could make a word like ‘delulu’ go this far.”

Nigerian singer Speed Darlington speaks with regret as he reflects on his life. He shared that he is disappointed in himself for still being single at his age and not having any children.
The singer said “Up till now, I’m not married and I don’t have any children. All I have to show is an American passport. I want more than American papers—I want a family and respect.”
Nigerian singer Tems reacts to comments linking her with Nigerian goalkeeper Maduka Okoye.
During a recent interview, the singer spoke about the African music movement.
“It’s amazing, you know, coming from Nigeria. I’m just really happy where African music is going right now. Everybody’s popping off and everybody’s shining. So I’m just happy to be a part of that.”
She was then asked if she knew the goalkeeper, to which she replied “Do I know him personally? “I think I do. No, no, no, no, no. I don’t.”
The host then teased her, saying “We should shoot our shot.”
