If BTS sounds like the name of a hamburger to you, and you’ve never heard of K-pop, there are only two possibilities: either you’ve lived the last decade inside a cave (which we greatly envy) or you don’t hang out with anyone under thirty. Because BTS has been the undisputed kings not only in South Korea but also worldwide for the past ten years.
They’ve reached the White House, left their mark wherever they’ve been, and their level of fanaticism can only be compared to the one The Beatles had in their day. And like any massive group, they have designed all sorts of crazy merchandising exclusively for true fans. I mean, those fans who want to have absolutely everything. Take a look at these 5 collector’s items (not always official) because they are incredible.
5) Jungkook tattoos
Imagine being such a fan of someone that you want to have their tattoos: that’s the case with Jungkook, one of the members of BTS, who has small marks all over his hands. And in Korea, they actually sell the exact same temporary tattoos so that you can feel, for a while, like you’re in his skin. The number one in his Army.
4) Water
Yes, that’s it: water. The bottle is BTS branded, and they drink it themselves, so what could go wrong? Be Water, marketed as “Clean and Healthy Water from the Deep Ocean Meets BTS to Create Premium Water,” wasn’t seen by all fans as the obvious money grab it clearly is. Instead, some saw it as an opportunity to get an exclusive bottle. Hey, and maybe even some “premium water,” whatever that means.
3) Full Body Pillows
Have you ever wanted to experience what the otakus of the ’90s felt when they bought a life-sized pillow of their waifu? Well, now you have the opportunity, but instead of a fictional anime character, it’s a real person: a BTS singer, to be more precise. Of course, having a singer embracing you is one thing, but… well, let’s just say it’s best to draw the line at certain things, please.
2) Cookies
How much is the most you have ever paid for butter cookies? In the case of BTS, to accompany their album ‘Butter,’ they released a box of about fifteen official cookies, complete with their logo, for 18.5 euros. The downside? They are not distributed outside of South Korea, so you would have to take a little trip to buy them. A very sweet journey indeed.
1) Clothes hangers
Imagine you open your wardrobe, and suddenly you find Jimin and RM wearing your clothes. If you don’t scream in terror, it may be because you’ve acquired these hangers for super devoted fans. Let’s be honest: it might be at the top of our list because we want one right now too.
