It should be noted, that ahead of BTS’ official appointment as the ambassadors for World Expo 2030, its entertainment agency HYBE announced on June 24 that the members would be holding a concert to boost South Korea’s bid to host the 2030 World Expo in Busan. BTS will be performing in October this year.
Last month BTS revealed during the Festa dinner party that they were going on a “hiatus." However, it was later clarified that while the individual members will be spending more time on their own projects, the group activities will also take place.
