Hello ARMY!
It's a day late but it's finally here! This week BTS is interviewed by Rolling Stone, Jin did promotions with Maple Story, V posts a funny TikTok, there are multiple concert days, and much more non-violent hooliganry.
Housekeeping:
-Next week's post will also be late due to driving 18+ hours that weekend. (Come and say "Hi" if you see me at Tampa D1!)
- Follow on Instagram/Threads and maybe consider buying me a coffee on Kofi.
-Voting is happening for AMAs! BTS was nominated in three categories: Artist of the Year, Best Male Kpop Artist, and Song of the Summer (Swim). BTS will be performing shows in Las Vegas that weekend so maybe we can finally find out what Jungkook wants to focus on.
Without further ado, BTS News for April 12th - 18th.
