We can only hope for more music records to be broken in the coming future. From their previous releases breaking their own records when it comes to views, albums, and music awards. If there’s a Kpop Group to break into the Western Norms—it’ll be BTS.
The future continues to be bright for the group, and with the support from the fans, their legacy will continue to shape the music industry. But the real question is—Will you be tuning in to the comeback on March 20th?
