On July 20, HYBE announced that BTS’ official community on Weverse has crossed the 30 million mark. It set a new all-time record since the platform’s launch in June 2019. Weverse enables artists to connect directly with fans worldwide through real-time chats, exclusive content, video updates, ticket sales, and merchandise.


Currently available in 245 countries and regions, Weverse recorded 10 million monthly active users in Q1 2025 alone. Several Korean and international artists, including Ariana Grande and Dua Lipa, as well as various K-pop groups, also utilize the platform. However, no other act has amassed a fanbase of this magnitude.

While 30 million subscribers is a record in itself, it also stands as a symbol of BTS’ enduring connection with fans. From their 2013 debut to their upcoming 2026 return, BTS has built a relationship that goes far beyond music. Through platforms like Weverse, they’ve cultivated a space where global fans feel seen, heard, and appreciated.
