ARMY go detective to decipher new album concept?

Has Army cracked BTS’ new comeback concept?

Army has taken to social media and past videos to try and crack the new concept for BTS’ ‘Love Yourself: Answer’

Starting from BTS' backstage videos to their recent fancafe post, contents leading up to the group's comeback are inspiring fans to decipher their new concept.

The first clue fans discovered was a clip from a backstage MAMA video, where Jin and Jungkook talked about their preparation for the next MAMA stage in advance.

When Jungkook kidded Jin to give a little spoiler, the idol responded with an old-school dance move and said, "Retro concept". Then, Jungkook played along and downright confessed that their MAMA stage for 2018 will be retro!

The next lot of clues coming much more recently coming from BTS' stage at '2018 Lotte Duty Free Family Concert' stimulated fans to surmise that the group might release a vinyl for their comeback. The background video from the stage included codes such as 'LP' and '33 1/3 rpm', all terms relating back to vinyl records.

The most recent clue being where one ARMY took to Twitter to share an information from BTS' official fan cafe post, saying that Rap Monster used certain emojis for a post entitled "new song". The emojis consist of two blowfish and two whales, which translate to 'bok-uh' (blowfish) and 'go-rae' (whale). Taking the first syllable from each word, the pronunciation becomes 'bok-go', which in Korean means 'retro'.

It seems like the detective ARMY are still trying to decipher their new concept. The official drop of their repackage album 'Love Yourself: Answer' is on August 24, so stay tuned for updates!
