BTS has brilliantly tapped into the culture of cuteness, creating characters that fans can't get enough of. The boys once spent a day at a LINE Friends store brainstorming ideas, which were then refined by designers into well-defined characters.
With eight characters—Tata, Mang, Chimmy, RJ, Koya, Cooky, Shooky, and Van—each uniquely mirroring BTS members and the ARMY, they've become symbols of the band's massive popularity.
Now, these delightful characters can be found everywhere, popping up on all sorts of cute BTS merch that devoted fans eagerly collect.
