before the tour dates were announced, we were looking at a few different places for shows. one of those was india, but unfortunately we couldn’t set up a show due to covid
Suga has been on his D-Day solo tour, travelling to countries like Japan, Indonesia, and several cities in the US. This is the first time a BTS member has gone on a solo world tour, without the other 6 members. Two of the BTS members - Jin and J-hope - are currently serving in the South Korean military as part of the country's mandate.
Earlier, the youngest BTS member Jungkook had taken Indian fans by surprise when he grooved to the song Naatu Naatu from the film RRR during his live session. He also said that he had watched the movie and loved it. While we Indians are in love with K-pop and Kdramas, it seems BTS members are enjoying Indian movies, too!
