Graduates in 2020 are getting the short end of the stick, with very little pomp and circumstance. But BTS & Barack Obama are helping honor their achievements!
Are you ready for IU’s comeback? The singer-songwriter recently collaborated with BTS’ Suga. She also has a new film in the works, starring opposite Park Seo-Joon.
Have you ever attended a BTS Muster? You’re in for a treat this weekend with the free, two-day online event, BANG BANG CON.
Bang Bang Con is happening in a few days. But if you NEED to watch more BTS before then, here are some options.
In an attempt to remain anonymous, Gong Yoo donated money to help fight coronavirus under his real name of Gong Ji-cheol. The star of the film “Train To Busan” was among a slew of Korean celebrities (including Suga from BTS) who gave money to help medical workers and those afflicted by the disease.
BTS has done its share of guest spots that follow the standard routine: perform a song and then sit on the sofa chatting about what American food they like. But ever since their appearance last May on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” some American variety shows have gone out of their way to make things more unique.
“Anytime you hear the finished version of a song, it’s exciting,” says Ellis Miah, who co-wrote a song with BTS. “I think in any language, all the creators feel something special when they hear it. A song is more than lyrics. It’s melody and it’s emotion. While I don’t understand Korean, there is no mistaking the depth that V puts into this song.”
A breezy “Hey-na-na-na” precedes their declaration of nothing being able to “Hold me down/ ‘Cuz you know I’m a fighter” makes it obvious that, like this entire album, “ON” is an exhortation to their fans, but also homage to their own career.
“BTS at this point is much more than a pop band,” songwriter Ellis Miah said. “They are a force of nature. Their energy brings smiles and excitement everywhere they go. To be involved in writing a song with them is a huge honor.”
“E-news Exclusive” follows BTS to the Grammys, covers “Parasite” at the Oscars and also nabs the first interview with Ku Hye-Sun since her very public split from Ahn Jae-Hyun.
