Lightly draw a large oval near the top center of the paper for the head.

Step 7

Draw a small curved line below the eyes for the nose.

Step 8

Draw a simple smiling mouth shape below the nose that matches your reference’s expression.

Help!?

What can we use if we don't have a clear front-facing photo of Jimin or a black marker?

Use a clear front-facing photo displayed on a phone or tablet as your reference and substitute the black marker with a dark fineliner, felt-tip pen, or sharpened dark colored pencil for tracing.

My facial features keep coming out lopsided—how can I fix them?

Re-lightly redraw the large oval and rely on the vertical center line and the horizontal eye line halfway down the oval to reposition the eyes and other features, then erase pencil guidelines gently and retrace with your black marker only once proportions match your reference.

How can I adapt this cartoon Jimin activity for younger or older kids?

For younger kids simplify to big rounded shapes for the head, eyes, and hair outline from the instructions, while older kids can add more precise facial proportions, detailed hair flows, and layered coloring with highlights and blush marks.

How can I personalize or extend my finished cartoon portrait before sharing it on DIY.org?

Add a patterned or colored background, draw a unique outfit on the shoulder lines, experiment with mixed coloring materials for texture, and sign your work before photographing it to share on DIY.org.

Facts about cartoon portrait drawing for kids

🕺 Park Jimin trained in contemporary dance at Busan High School of Arts — great inspiration for lively poses in your portrait!

🎤 BTS debuted in 2013 and became global superstars, making fan art of members like Jimin super popular worldwide.

🎨 Cartoon artists often break faces into simple shapes (circles, ovals, triangles) — an easy trick for cartoonizing someone.

😊 Jimin is known for his dimples and soft expressions — tiny details that make a cartoon portrait instantly recognizable.

🌈 K-pop visuals use bold, bright colors and contrasts — perfect cues for choosing a fun color palette for your drawing.

How do I draw a cartoon portrait of Jimin step by step?

Start by choosing a clear reference photo of Jimin and study his main features. Lightly sketch simple shapes for the head, hair, and facial placements (circles and ovals), then refine proportions and add expressive eyes, smile, and stylized hair. Ink the final lines, erase pencil marks, and color with bold, flat areas. Add small highlights, a simple background, and sign your drawing. Focus on observation and playful exaggeration.

What materials do I need to cartoonize Jimin?

You'll need sketch paper or cardstock, pencils (HB and 2B), a good eraser, a fine black pen or marker for outlines, and colored pencils, markers or watercolor paints for bold color. Optional: a lightbox or tracing paper, ruler for proportions, blending stump for shading, and a printed reference photo of Jimin. Keep materials non-toxic and washable for younger children.

What ages is the BTS Special 'Cartoonize Jimin' activity suitable for?

This cartoon portrait activity suits ages 5–12 with adaptations. Preschoolers (5–7) do simplified head shapes and big features with adult help. Ages 8–10 can handle proportion and basic shading. Ages 11–12 can experiment with stylization and color theory. Supervise younger children with scissors, paint, or small tools. Adjust complexity and time to match each child’s attention span and skill level.

What are the benefits and safe variations of this cartoon drawing activity?

Cartoonizing Jimin builds observation, proportion sense, and fine motor skills while encouraging creativity and personal style. It teaches color choices and expressive features. For safety and respect, remind children to use public photos and avoid copying private images; transform the likeness with exaggeration. Variations: try collage with colored paper, digital drawing apps, or themed outfits (stage look, casual, fantasy). Celebrate originality rather than exact replication.
