BTS launch web series to help fans learn Korean

The Coronavirus outbreak might have dampened the spirits of the BTS ARMY looking forward to attending the Map of the Soul tour. But BTS is making complete use of this time to work on some new music. As per the latest international reports, BTS is all set to rule Japan this summer. The Korean pop band released their new album Map of the Soul: 7 earlier this year. If international reports are to believed, the Bangtan Boys are working on a new Japanese album set to release in July this year. 

South Korean stars Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo's divorce came through in July last year. The Descendants of the Sun couple were rumoured to be residing in Seoul's Yongsan-guu when they were married.

Big Hit Entertainment, the Korean music label which represents pop sensation BTS, recorded bumper profits in 2019.

The BTS fandom is losing their collective minds today courtesy Jimin and Jungkook. The Bangtan Boys, who have cancelled the Korean leg of Map of the Soul tour and rescheduled the North American leg of the tour, appeared on a new episode of Run BTS. Like every other episode, Mochi, Kookie, RM, Jin, V, Suga and J-Hope came together to shoot a series of fun activities. While there were several moments that caught ARMY's attention, fans cannot stop talking about a moment featuring Jikook. 

If you’re not caught up with Korean rapper Simon Dominic yet, this would be a good time to dive into his catalog. The AOMG member has been building a huge following in his home country over the past few years, most recently with the release of his No Open Flames EP.

BTS members remind us of the importance of writing notes from time to time. Just a few days ago, we reported that BTS singer V aka Taehyung had left behind a note for a Korean restaurant owner. The singer enjoyed the food so much that he thanked him for the service and asked the ARMY to visit it. Now, BTS leader RM has done something similar. Namjoon has reportedly penned a special note for his Pilates teacher. The singer sent her a humble note after the teacher opened her own studio.

Over the past few weeks, BTS singer V and Park Seo Joon's friendship has been making the headlines. The Taehyung penned and crooned the song Sweet Night for Joon's show Itaewon Class. Now, another Bangtan Boy's friendship with a K-Drama star is making the headlines. As per the Korean media, BTS singer Jin is harbouring a special friendship with Yoo Seungho. The actor is the face of the Korean show, Memorist. The actor took to Instagram to gush about the gift. 

BTS is putting the brakes on its upcoming tour of North America, which was to have kicked off in April.

It is a difficult time for BTS and the ARMY. Due to the Coronavirus outbreak, the Korean leg of the 'Map of the Soul' tour has been postponed.

Pinkvilla previously reported that BTS singer V made his way on sets of Itaewon Class. The singer made his way on the sets of the Korean drama to support his close friend Park Seojoon.
