BTS are turning 11 this June!
To celebrate, the group has prepared special suprises for ARMY – from Jungkook's 'Never Let Go' to BANGBANGCON. On 13 June, an in-person FESTA event will also be held in Seoul where fans can explore ARMY ZONE with ARMY friends, and if they're lucky, get to witness the main event – the return of Jin.
While not all of us can make it Korea to party with ARMY and Jin, here are 7 ways you can commemorate BTS' 11th birthday from your little corner of the world.

Jin's much-awaited comeback is happening this week, and keeping his promise, BTS' resident Worldwide Handsome will be meeting ARMY on FESTA day.
