Moon Junghyun (문정현) is a famous art critic who has won the SeMa Award twice. He also is a #BTSARMY and this short post talks about his experience attending the LYS:SYS Tour in Paris.

"One thing is certain: ARMY is a diverse fandom, not just in the racial and cultural sense, but in every way you can think of (age, genders, passions, professions, and so on.) It is thanks to this diversity that ARMY has managed to develop these spaces that give other BTS fans safe places to debate, have fun, rediscover themselves, and learn, all while motivated by the band’s messages of respect, empathy, love, and resilience."

BTS’s Japanese studio album, Map of the Soul: 7 ~ The Journey, was released on July 14, 2020. It includes Japanese versions of songs from three previous albums, as well as four new, original Japanese tracks: ‘Intro: Calling,’ the lead single ‘Stay Gold,’ ‘Your eyes tell,’ and ‘Outro: The Journey.’ And the previously released 2019 single ‘Lights’ is also included. Those tracks, and more, are the subjects of the talk.
