Each teaser video will star a different group member, starting with Jin on December 24, and be shared daily through WEBTOON’s official social media accounts. The new series of videos follows earlier official teasers, called 7FATES with BTS, and the mysterious CCTV Live that sparked global excitement among their fandom: Army.  

Also launching today is WEBTOON x BTS, an event webcomic that will give fans access to behind-the-scenes content of the group. Each of the seven WEBTOON x BTS episodes will focus on a member of the band and can be found exclusively on the official WEBTOON app.
