BTS Distributes Photo Cards For ARMY At 25th World Scout Jamboree Concert: Although BTS won't be performing at the 2023 World Scout Jamboree concert in South Korea, attendees won't leave the event empty-handed. BIGHIT MUSIC, the management agency of the globally renowned K-pop group, has provided special photo cards of the band to be given out at the concert for free.
The event was initially scheduled for August 6 but was later rescheduled to August 11. BIGHIT MUSIC invested 800 million KRW (equivalent to around Rs 4-5 crores) to create these special photo cards for the event. Additionally, the photocards were accompanied by goodie bags containing various merchandise and light sticks.
Roughly 40,000 attendees were present at the event, and BTS' agency dispatched approximately 43,000 photo cards to be distributed at the venue. According to reports, the agency expressed their hopes that the performance would serve as a special occasion for participants to create valuable and significant memories related to Korea.
Despite facing strong tropical storms, South Korea successfully organised a large-scale K-pop concert that was considerably affected by adverse weather conditions. The concert scheduled for Friday took place in a rain-soaked soccer stadium and featured performances from prominent K-pop groups such as NewJeans, The BOYZ, ITZY, MAMAMOO, and others.

On the final day of the event, BTS team leader RM delivered a special performance by singing an unreleased song before the audience, marking it as his farewell performance on stage before he begins his military service. This occurrence coincides with reports of Suga's forthcoming enlistment to fulfil his mandatory military duties. It is anticipated that RM and Suga will soon commence their service, although their management agency has yet to confirm the exact dates.
Meanwhile, Jungkook and V, two other members of the group, have been making significant waves in the news post the release of their solo singles. Jungkook unveiled 'Seven' last month and has also revealed his intentions to unveil a mini album by November this year.
On a parallel note, BTS' V is presently unveiling singles from his debut solo album titled 'Layover.' The album's first two tracks, 'Love Me Again' and 'Rainy Days,' have already been released along with their corresponding music videos.
