The location, Yeouido, was chosen for a special reason. BTS held their very first fan sign event there. The group originally debuted on June 13, 2013, and two weeks later, on June 28, they had their first fan meeting at the IFC Mall in Yeouido. No matter how successful they become, they never forget their roots.
The agency also released a special Project Photo featuring all seven members of the band.
BTS's 10th anniversary will be celebrated with an outdoor festival at Yeouido Hangang Park on June 17. "BTS 10th Anniversary FESTA @Yeouido,' an outdoor festival where ARMY and the public can enjoy, will be held at Yeouido Hangang Park to celebrate the 10th anniversary of BTS. We are doing our best to provide a safe experience for everyone by following the safety management guidelines. We ask for your continued interest and support," a notice on Weverse read.
