Exclusive BTS art cards released for the newsstand

K-Pop Superstars magazine, a special fan-magazine dedicated to the stars of Korean pop culture, are releasing a set of exclusive BTS art cards next week.

These eight collectable art cards will appear on newsstands across the UK, as well as in Barnes & Noble in the US. They will also be sold online via the Anthem shop site, and are currently available to pre-order.

K-Pop Superstars has gone from strength to strength in recent months, tapping into an extremely dedicated and loyal fanbase of K-Pop followers. Though the magazine has also published issues surrounding the Korean girl band Blackpink, their main focus has been on the seven-piece pop sensation BTS, who have shot to stardom since their formation in 2013.

Though the band recently went on a short hiatus, they have this week announced their return to music-making, much to the delight of their enthusiastic fans. With this ever-growing fanbase comes a strong audience demand for all things BTS, making it the perfect time to release this collector’s fan pack. In this collection of eight hand-picked images, fans can find portraits of each one of the band members, as well as a group shot in front of the Empire State Building.

Speaking on the success of K-Pop Superstars, CEO Jon Bickley has said: “We’re incredibly pleased to be bringing another BTS product to the dedicated fanbase of K-Pop Superstars. We are always looking for other forms of revenue streams to make us stand out from the rest of the magazine market, and if these art cards are a success then there is great potential for similar releases in the future”.

K-Pop Superstars: BTS art cards go on sale in stores on 1st October, or are available to order online now.
