Hello ARMY!
I had a nice intro all typed out, but then my browser refreshed randomly (UGH!) so here's the second-nicest intro that may be brief because, like Seokjin said, "World wide cute ARMY should also sleep before midnight."
BTS continue their ARIRANG world tour in New Jersey and Boston along with some fun outings along the way and several brand promotions. JHope for Colgate, V with Jinro, Jungkook with Chanel, and Jin featured on Elle.
Housekeeping:
-More fun on Threads and Instagram: @bangtan.bulletin
-Like what you're reading and want to reward me a Ko-fi? The cost of this blog is increasing soon so every little bit helps.
