We are only a few days away from the release of 'BE (Essential Edition)'. Dropping on February 19, the septet has been dropping new content every day since the month began. Kicking off the ARMY room illustration with Suga, the group's leader RM has made some addition to it.

BTS’ RM makes special addition to the ARMY room with a heartwarming message ahead of ‘BE (Essential Edition)’ release

"I remember saying that something in porcelain would be nice for RM's room but I've actually been saving it for ARMY's room. I thought the moon jar would suit ARMY's room really nicely. A moon jar is made by combining two halves that are made separately, so each piece is unique. I'd say just like people, each different and unique. Just as all of these different jars are called 'moon jars', so are all our ARMY who are different but stand by BTS as one ARMY. Looking at the moon jar in the room brings a certain tranquility to my mind. I hope through this beautiful piece, my full moon wish is to gift you a warm day that will be felt by all ARMY," RM says in the video.

Adding a four-way case, the most traditional type of Korean furniture, and a jar on the top to the right corner of the room, RM says in his voiceover, "I also thought a Korean "four-way-case" sabangtakja would be a good addition to ARMY's room. I make good use of this item to display figures. The four-way case is open all around to make it extra useful and the open sides imbue an expansive feeling to the entire space around it, bringing out comfort. It's antique furniture with many modern aesthetics. I hope the harmonious balance created by the gentle curves of the moon jar and the lines and angles of the sabangtakja can bring lots of comfort and relaxation from every direction."

Back in November 2020, each member of BTS curated special concept photos - those were rooms representing them. RM's room had a set colour tone, there were figurines, his bonsai and wood objects! He likes to keep the vibe minimal and yet it feels like a safe space for him. Same way, he curated the ARMY room and added his own touch to it. Called 'Moonchild' in the fandom after his track, he has often felt a sense of freedom in his own corner. His room expresses the beauty lies in simplicity but also finding comfort in your space. Keeping these thoughts in mind, the special addition for the ARMY is pretty thoughtful.

The earlier new content were special voice guide notes of the songs including Suga's notes for 'Telepathy', RM's notes for the lead single 'Life Goes On', Jungkook's notes for 'Stay', Jimin's notes for 'Dis-ease', and V's notes for 'Blue & Grey', J-Hope's notes for 'Dis-ease', Jin's notes for 'Stay' and BTS' notes for 'Fly To The Room'.

'BE (Essential Edition)' drops on February 19, 2021, two days before the one year anniversary of their record-breaking full-length album 'Map Of The Soul: 7'. The Grammy-nominated group is set to perform a special edition of its MTV Unplugged franchise, MTV Unplugged Presents: BTS. The worldwide music event will build off the iconic series with a fresh new take Tuesday, February 23 at 9 PM ET (February 24, 7:30 am IST) exclusively on MTV in the US and will air around the world beginning February 23.
