Google street galleries:
BTS collaborated with Google’s Arts & Culture Lab, leading to the development of BTS x Street Galleries which allows you to take a tour of certain places and art pieces that unveil the life story of the BTS members. The best part of this venture is that the septet has curated the gallery by themselves. It involves unraveling Seoul with RM and Jungkook, Los Angeles with SUGA, Sao Paolo with Jin, London with V, New York with J-Hope, and Singapore with Jimin.

Purple Balloons:
The purple balloons go way back to 2016 when V said, ‘I Purple You’ or ‘Borahae’. The reason why he said purple specifically is because purple is the last color of the rainbow, entailing that the love and trust one has for another will be in for a long haul. Ever since this story, the color purple has become a mark of recognition between BTS and ARMY. Hence, also the purple hearts.
