After the release of their hugely successful Love Yourself album trilogy last year, which included two #1 Billboard Hot 200 hits with ‘Love Yourself: Tear’ and ‘Love Yourself: Answer’, the K-pop group BTS are following up with a new album - and it’s coming sooner than you think.

The new album entitled ‘Map of the Soul: Persona’ will be released on April 12th this year, marking the beginning of a new chapter for the boys and their first release of new music in 2019.

The boys teased to the new album title in an opening sequel to their performance at the 2018 Mnet Music Awards in Hong Kong last year. How did we miss this hint?

The brand new album will arrive just ahead of their ‘Love Yourself: Speak Yourself’

US, EU and UK leg of the world tour, including twosold-out nights at Los Angeles Rose Bowl Stadium and another two sold out at London’s Wembley Stadium. Legends only.

​

The news comes after the boy band consisting of Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook presented an award at the GRAMMYs this year, becoming the first ever Korean act to present.

The album’s pre-order is available on March 13th.
