BTS Members Jimin and V's Zodiac Signs Explain Why They're the Perfect

Jimin is outgoing and affectionate, while V is known for his creativity. Together, they make up the "95s" subunit of BTS , the group that created "Friends" off of Map of the Soul: 7.

Here's what we know about these award-winning vocalists , their zodiac signs, and their compatibility for their friendship.

These performers are award-winning artists and the only BTS members that are the same age. Born on Oct. 13, 1995, Jimin is a Libra. This zodiac sign is known for being social, while still being fair and diplomatic in their relationships.

Born on Dec. 30, 1995, V is a Capricorn. As an earth sign, Capricorns are generally pretty grounded, but that doesn't make them any less goal-oriented. Although these signs aren't exactly compatible, they help explain more of the relationship between Jimin and V.

Although they work well together as performers, a relationship between these two signs isn't without problems. According to Astrobix , "a friendship between a Libra and a Capricorn is a relationship between two people who don't have too much in common."

While Libras are known for being outgoing, Capricorns have a reputation for being stoic and disciplined. When the BTS members had their Carpool Karaoke segment with James Corden, Suga revealed that Jimin and V are the two members most likely to argue.

"What happened was I had no idea this song would be included in the album," Jimin said, according to a translation on the video. "And after discussing with our producer this cute song came out. We never made a song about me and Taehyung’s old days."

K-pop Sensation BTS's Newest Collab Is for Campers | Architectural Digest

Korean boy band sensation BTS is bringing their flair to the great outdoors, partnering with camping brand Helinox to release a new line of outdoor gear. Although the K-pop stars are no strangers to the world of collaboration, with past partnerships ranging from Hyundai to Coca-Cola, this is their very first one of this sort, marking their first foray into the world of furniture design.

The collaboration features an array of camping products, including a chair, convertible cot, foldable table, sacoche bag, gymsack, and name patch (prices range from $10 to $575). Crafted in Helinox's signature lightweight fabric and presented in a vibrant purple, each item is subtly embossed in BTS-designed geometric patterns and logos.

While most of the pieces are camping-specific, the sacoche and gymsack are more versatile, just as useful on the street as in the mountains. Similarly, the printed fabric makes the collection ideal for both eccentric naturegoers and in-the-know fans. "With the BTS x Helinox collaboration, our goal was to create a unique design and collection that reflects how music and the outdoors bring people together, integrating a pattern of both outdoor and musical icons on a signature color," says Azul Couzens, the VP of marketing at Helinox USA.

On April 7, the two Korean powerhouse brands released their collaboration at the Helinox Creative Center and flagship store in Seoul, South Korea . With the pop stars' wide-reaching fan base of 39 million followers on Instagram, it's no surprise that the limited stock is already selling out fast.

Is BTS About To Replace Themselves At No. 1 On The Sales Chart With New Single 'Film Out'?

BTS are steady at No. 1 on the latest edition of the Digital Song Sales chart, Billboard 's weekly ranking of the singles that actually sold the most copies in the U.S. (which differs from other lists, like the Hot 100, which incorporates streaming numbers and radio play) with their unbeatable smash "Dynamite." The tune has been going strong on the tally for a historically long time, and even some of the most exciting new cuts from major stars haven't been able to best the Grammy-nominated tune...though it looks like a just-released track might end up winning the week, and it comes from a very familiar source.

The South Korean septet's new single "Film Out" could be on its way to a No. 1 debut on the Digital Song Sales chart, according to music industry and chart projectors. BTS released the tune, performed in Japanese, a little over a week ago, and so far it's been performing very well since its arrival.

Depending on how the next few days play out before the current tracking period wraps this Thursday (April 8), "Film Out" could conceivably sell enough copies on platforms like iTunes, Amazon and others to wind up launching atop next week's Digital Song Sales chart. If that ends up taking place, BTS will score the relatively rare back-to-back leaders on the tally, replacing themselves on the throne.

Currently, "Film Out" is facing tough competition from Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak's (otherwise known as Silk Sonic) debut single as a duo, "Leave The Door Open," which has been selling thousands of copies per week since it was released over a month ago. A new version of that tune may help it in hitting No. 1 on the Digital Song Sales chart next frame.

Also vying for the highest rung on the sales-only list are Masked Wolf's "Astronaut in the Ocean" and Taylor Swift's "Mr. Perfectly Fine," which was released just today (April 7), though that latter title is severely handicapped, as it has less than two full days in which to rack up sales.

Whether "Film Out" wins the week or not, it's bound to open high on the next published Digital Song Sales chart, perhaps giving BTS another top 10, if not one more No. 1. All those purchases could also help the tune find its way to the Hot 100, though where it may rank is difficult to predict.

BTS Helinox Outdoors Collection 2021: Shop Group's Camping Gear Here - Rolling Stone

Fans can now show off their love for BTS in the great outdoors with the group’s new collaboration with Helinox , a Korean-based brand known for their portable chairs, cots, tables and outdoor equipment.

From the Helinox Creative Center and flagship store in Seoul, Korea, the Helinox design team worked to create unique embossed designs for their accessories, including BTS-inspired take on logos and subtle icons. The BTS Name Patches are the only non-gear piece in the collection, but fans can still wear them on a hike to show off their BTS pride.

BTS themselves are no stranger to outdoorsman skills. This collaboration would fit right in to the group’s hit camping reality series last year, In the Soop (“soop” means forest in Korean). Spending a week in the forest, they showed that even hard-working Grammy nominees take the time to focus on rest and relaxation.

Pricing for the BTS x Helinox collection ranges from $10-$575, and is available online now. Since only limited quantities are available, check out the gear now on Helinox.com before everything is sold out.

BTS's 'Film Out' Marks Their First Japanese Single To Chart In The U.K.

It's only been a few weeks since BTS disappeared from the U.K. singles chart, as their global smash "Dynamite" was last present on the tally in late March. Now, only a handful of frames after that cut dipped below the top 100, the band is back with a new hit...and it's one that sounds markedly different from a lot of their well-known tracks.

BTS's new single "Film Out" debuts at No. 73 on this week's songs ranking in the U.K., and it marks their first trip to the tally with a cut performed in Japanese. While the septet is known primarily for performing in Korean, and English more recently, they also release music in Japanese. As their collective star continues to climb, the band seems to be able to reach the most important and competitive charts all around the world with music in any tongue.

"Film Out" serves as the first single from BTS's forthcoming Japanese release BTS, the Best , a compilation of some of their most beloved songs sung in that language. The project does not arrive until mid-June, but BTS delivered the first taste (and only new track on the effort) to treat their fans as they wait for more new music.

BTS have now reached the U.K. songs chart with 16 different tracks, almost all of which are primarily performed in Korean. A number mix that language with English, while "Dynamite" is only in the latter tongue.

"Film Out" enters the U.K. songs chart as the fifth-highest-ranking debut this week, coming in behind new releases by the likes of Olivia Rodrigo ("Deja Vu," No. 27), Wes Nelson and Yxng Bane ("Nice to Meet Ya," No. 42), Demi Lovaot and Ariana Grande ("Met Him Last Night," No. 44) and Lil Tjay, Offset and Moneybagg Yo ("Run It Up," No. 63).

BTS, Blackpink's Rosé, ATEEZ, BAEKHYUN, WayV And SHINee: The Bestselling Albums Of March In Korea

Despite the fact that it was released on the last day in March, BAEKHYUN's latest solo EP Bambi still managed to end the month as the bestselling title in South Korea...and it wasn't even close.

According to data shared by Gaon on its monthly chart of the bestselling albums, Bambi won the race by a massive margin, as the set shipped just under 592,000 copies. That puts it ahead of the runner-up, Super Junior's The Renaissance , by more than 150,000 copies, an enormous difference. That legendary boy band's comeback set still sold 433,000 copies in just half a month.

Blackpink member Rosé made headlines all around the world by officially embarking on her solo career with a short single album titled R , which she released in mid-March. It may have only featured two songs, but the project shipped 394,000 copies, and helped her make history as a female soloist with a title so immediately popular.

ATEEZ's latest EP ZERO _ FEVER Part.2 (the second in that series) benefitted from the fact it was released on March 1, and it sold more than 380,000 copies in its first full month of availability. Less than 40,000 copies behind that project is IU's Lilac , which debuted at No. 1 just last week, so clearly her ability to sell an album is truly incredible.

Just one other release, WayV's Kick Back , managed to sell at least a quarter of a million copies in March alone. 

BTS's BE makes it into the top 10 in another month, as the bestseller shipped another 118,000 copies. By the end of April, the boy band's latest historic release should pass another million units in 2021 alone. It was released in late 2020, and it's already sold at least three million copies in South Korea.

PENTAGON's LOVE or TAKE debuts on the Gaon's monthly albums chart at No. 8 with 88,000 copies sold, SHINee's comeback project Don't Call Me dips to No. 9 from No. 2 (where it ranked at the end of February) with another 85,000 copies shipped, while WOODZ's Set opens in tenth place with just under 80,000 copies.

These Tweets Comparing SuperM's "We Do" To BTS' "Dynamite" Video Are So Split

On Friday, April 9, SuperM dropped the music video for their newest song "We DO." The track and its lyrics include elements of funk and disco, and the music video is full of colorful, retro vibes, and vintage choreography reminiscent of the Jackson 5. Since BTS' "Dynamite" music video, which released in August 2020, had a similar theme, fans couldn't help but draw comparisons between the two visuals. These tweets comparing SuperM's "We Do" to BTS' "Dynamite" video are split because while some argue they're the same concept, others say they're different.

SuperM released their English-language track "We DO" as part of Prudential Corporation Asia's "Dance For Wellness" campaign," which aims to "promote the importance of staying fit and healthy, especially during these times." The song is about having a good time dancing, so of course, the group's MV is full of fun choreography. The visuals also include SuperM hanging out at a laundromat, playing billiards at a bar, and dancing on a stage in front of a cityscape and massive display of fireworks.

Fans pointed out BTS' "Dynamite" MV included similar imagery of them dancing disco choreo and vising retro locations like an old record shop and donut burger joint. At the end, the septet also performed in front of a huge fireworks show to go along with their "Dynamite" theme. Because of this, some users are saying "We DO"'s concept is too similar to "Dynamite"'s.

Some even went so far as to say the lyrics were similar as well. In " Dynamite ," BTS sings, "I'm diamond, you know I glow up... Shining through the city with a little funk and soul," and in "We DO," SuperM sings, "Shining bright like gold."

"Watched 30 seconds of superm's new mv... they're not even trying to hide that they copied everything off the vibe of dynamite," one person tweeted.

However, there were some fans that said just because both groups followed retro concepts, doesn't mean one copied the other.
