• BTOB's 90TAN Brings 90's Hip-Hop Vibes with 'TANG TANG TANG'

    BTOB's unit 90TAN, made up of Seo Eunkwang and Lee Minhyuk, is bringing a cool 90s hip-hop vibe this summer. On the 25th, BTOB's agency dropped new concept photos for 90TAN's first single, 'TANG TANG TANG,' on their official social media.

    In the photos, 90TAN members rock 90s hip-hop styles with natural hairstyles and sporty outfits. Their model-like poses and fun expressions show off their great chemistry.

    They also released individual concept photos, showing off each member's unique style. The duo looks cool and sporty, perfect for summer, and different from the chic 'villain' vibe of their first photos. This has fans excited for their new song.

    Seo Eunkwang and Lee Minhyuk, both born in 1990, created 90TAN from their birth year. In 90TAN, Seo Eunkwang is SILVER LIGHT, and Lee Minhyuk is HUTA. They plan to show a new style, different from BTOB's usual music, promising lots of fun for fans.

    Earlier this year, the members started the label BTOB Company to keep their group activities going. 90TAN is the first unit to debut under this label and is getting a lot of attention.

    90TAN performed 'TANG TANG TANG' on July 5 at 'WATERBOMB SEOUL 2024.' Despite the water, they delivered perfect live vocals and a strong performance, showing their great energy and teamwork.

    90TAN's first single 'TANG TANG TANG' will drop on July 31 at 6 PM on various music sites.

    BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
