“Love Yourself” is a series of music under a single concept that BTS will explore until next year. The boyband recently released a highlight video that hinted at how the series will proceed.

One of K-pop’s hottest acts in the K-pop scene, BTS has been enjoying international and domestic success. Its recent record “You Never Walk Alone” became its fourth consecutive album to crack the Billboard 200 chart -- the first K-pop artist to do so -- and it became the first K-pop group to win at Billboard Music Awards.
