BTS released a rare political statement on Wednesday (June 4), standing in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement.
Last year, BTS scored the most-liked tweet courtesy Jungkook. Kookie posted a video on the band's official Twitter account where he was dancing to Billie Eilish's Bad Guy. The ARMY showered him with love and as a result, the "Duh" tweet made history. However, he wasn't the only Korean celebrity who was hooked to the English song last year. We've discovered a video on Lee Min Ho's official Instagram account that shows the lead of The King: Eternal Monarch that shows he also enjoyed the song.
Ed Sheeran, Michael Buble, and Keith Urban will pay tribute to frontline workers with the upcoming Thank You Concert livestream event.
A Pinkvilla reader by the name of Riya Chauhan pens her journey from BTS' DNA to exploring K-Dramas:
FESTA 2020 is finally upon us and ARMY could not be more excited as BTS celebrates their seventh anniversary. The special occasion was capped off with a special summer version of their hit track, Airplane pt. 2, which was shot during their Summer Package trip to Saipan. We have a whole lot of things to look forward to as BTS will be dropping new videos, photos and songs every day until June 13, when the K-pop group celebrates its birthday with ARMY.
Korean entertainment, in a nutshell, has taken over on a global scale. Whether it be their addictive tunes or their content-driven yet guilty pleasure K-dramas, there's something in store for everybody.
Mariah Carey and Ellie Goulding will be joining Katy Perry for at-home concerts this summer as part of a new series of U.S. TV gigs.
The wait was long but it was absolutely worth it! BTS singer Suga has finally dropped his mixtape, Agust D, and a music video of the song from the album. Titled Daechwita, the music video of the Agust D2 song took no time to set the internet on fire.
The wait is finally over. Big Hit Entertainment has released Suga's Agust D2. The K-Pop band agency has been teasing the mixtape for days now. While it was confused if it was Jungkook or Suga, the D-2 announcement revealed it was indeed Yoongi's highly anticipated Agust D2. Today, the Korean rapper has not only released the album but also dropped the music video of Agust D '대취타' MV and it has surpassed our expectations. The rapper travels back in time to deliver a jaw-dropping video.
Break The Silence; the latest BTS docuseries is literally aiming at leaving ARMY in a state of an emotional mess as the members pour their hearts out like never before. In Break The Silence Ep 5 titled The Opposite Side, the majority of the episode focuses on Jimin losing his voice during BTS' Sao Paulo concert of Speak Yourself World Tour. An exhausted ChimChim is seen being escorted backstage as he whispers, "My throat hurts so much that it's hard to breathe."
Just as the Korean pop industry was coming to terms with the developments involving BTS‘s Jungkook, SEVENTEEN‘s Mingyu, NCT‘s Jaehyun, and ASTRO‘s Cha Eun Woo, the Korean entertainment industry finds itself tackling Cheongdam Party controversy. Sports Kyunghyang reported that actress Once Again star Lee Min Jung, former After School member Lee Joo Yeon, T-Ara’s Hyomin, and actress Kim Hee Jung were spotted at a birthday party near Itaewon.

“Streaming Outta Fenway” will feature the Boss (remotely) and the Boston Celtic punks in a momentous concert broadcast from the historic ballpark's infield.
It was recently reported by Dispatch that four members from the 97 line were hanging out in Itaewon on April 25, 2020. Why the date is extremely important to note is because it was the same day when the Korean Center for Disease Control (KCDC) urged citizens to practice social distancing due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Earlier this year, BTS singer V stepped up to croon a soothing track for his friend Park Seo Joon's popular Korean drama show Itaewon Class. The singer sang Sweet Night for the show and it went on to shatter several records. It seems like Taehyung's fellow BTS member Jin is prompted to follow his footsteps and sing a song for his friend Yoo Seung Ho's show Memorist. Until a few weeks ago, the ARMY wasn't even aware that BTS singer Jin was friends with actor Yoo Seung Ho.
