New Delhi, April 18 : BTS has announced a new album with the tagline “We Are Bulletproof” coming out on June 10. A teaser video revealed at the end of their Permission To Dance Las Vegas concert on Saturday went viral on social media. BigHit Music also put out a statement sending their fandom BTSARMY into ecstacy. As is usual with all their past releases, the information about the new chapter in BTS’ journey will be gradually revealed. It will be a bridge to their new chapter. Except for a series of images from their inception to date there is no further information about the album as of now. It remains to be ascertained whether “We Are Bulletproof” is the album title or a song or just a tagline.
The album was teased at the end of the final date of the group’s recent four-night Las Vegas residency, when the date “2022.06.10” (June 10) appeared on a video screen at the end of the show, alongside the tagline: “We are bulletproof.” The group posted that video on Twitter early Sunday morning, while its label, Big Hit Music, confirmed the album in a post on the fan community platform Weverse. “This is Big Hit Music. “BTS will be back with another new album on June 10, 2022. “Details on the new album will be provided in a separate notice at a later date.” Before that ARMY is waiting for Jimin’s OST, which Taehyung in a Vlive said he has seen it of course. Ever since their Instagram accounts became active in December 2021, international fandom of the group have found BTS interaction has increased. Jungkook during his Covid-lockdown in Vegas starting March 27, everyday for hours intensely interacted with ARMY, who could not have enough of him. BTS is on an unprecedented high with appearances on both the Grammys and the Oscars over the past two months.
The group brought the Grammys house down while performing its mega-hit “Butter.” Jungkook in his Euphoria-style swooped down from the ceiling in spectacular fashion while other band members sat in the audience alongside stars like Keith Urban. V, flirted with Olivia Rodrigo, who performed right before BTS. In a blink-and-miss-moment, V and Jungkook did a card act leaving audience gasping as the group went all Bond-style on stage, even as J-Hope and Jungkook were onlyjust recovered from Covid-19. They transformed into super spies, ducking lights with MissionImpossible and James Bond-vibes, as a post-surgery recuperating SeokJin managed to play an operator on stage, sitting out the act. Following the Grammys ceremony, BTS remained in Las Vegas for four dates on their “Permission to Dance on Stage” tour on April 8, 9, 15 and 16 at Allegiant Stadium.
March-end, BTS did a surprise pre-recorded appearance at the Oscars, celebrating their favorite Disney and Pixar movies, including “Coco” and “Aladdin.” Earlier in April, BTS’ concert film, “BTS Permission to Dance on Stage: Seoul” earned $32.6 million in its opening weekend at the international box office from 3,711 cinemas in 75 markets. As per Variety.com, the movie grossed $6.84 million in North America, which was enough to crack the top five on the domestic box office charts.
