Chloe also said, "If you look at the song track of Eternals, it's quite random they kind of sums up who I really am a bit Pink Floyd, BTS...They wrote together, it's just such a beautiful song.”

Recently, Jimin's name appeared in the end credits for Eternals for Friends. BTS fandom, ARMY, took to Twitter and showered him and V with love. A user had said, "I am very proud and happy of you Jimin, you did amazing and you deserve it so much #FriendsEternalsOST outstanding producer Jimin congratulations Jimin Taehyung."

Another person tweeted, "Congratulations. It's amazing Jimin. He produced, wrote and composed Friends and today his song in the movie Eternals! Happy to see his name in the credits of Friends."

Besides Friends, the other songs included in the film are Time By Pink Floyd, Celina Sharma’s Nach Mera Hero, and Juice By Lizzo.

In its review, Hindustan Times wrote, "Chloe Zhao’s Oscar follow-up, Eternals, gets so much wrong, it becomes a task to keep up even after a short while. While it does often diverge from the Marvel formula, it’s rarely for the better — be it the forced, utterly awkward sex scene or the feeble attempts to impress the ever-growing desi audience. No amount of an affable Ibu Hatela can make up for the number of poor choices made."
