GET READY TO BE ENTRANCED BY THE WORLD'S BIGGEST BOYBAND!
The BTS (an acronym of Bangtan Sonyeondan or 'Beyond the Scene') storm has been sweeping across the world and it is finally reaching our shores. The septet will be making Singapore music history as the first Korean act to ever play at the iconic National Stadium. Even if you don't understand the language, there's plenty to like about the Korean boyband. Here's why:
> BTS addressed the United Nations in September 2018 at the launch of Generation Unlimited, a new partnership to promote education, training and employment for the world's youth.
> BTS topped the list of Time magazine's Next Generation Leaders 2018.
> BTS became the first K-pop act to top the Billboard 200 album chart with Love Yourself: Tear in May this year.
> BTS received The Order of Cultural Merit from the South Korean government in October for its efforts at spreading South Korean culture and language throughout the world.
After the power-packed 'Mr Rock' and 'TRIPLE JAM' concerts in 2009 and 2015 respectively, the popular Taiwanese musician returns to Singapore with his brand-new world tour, which coincides with his 10th anniversary in showbiz.
