KUALA LUMPUR, April 15 — Popular K-pop group BTS will be performing the opening soundtrack for upcoming South Korean animated TV series Bastions.
According to YonHap News Agency, the series will see the supergroup coming together once again for the show’s theme song.
BTS’ last appearance as a group was through their anthology album Proof which was released in June last year. Since then, the group members have branched out to focus on their own solo careers.
According to the series production house Thymos Media, Bastions follows the story of a group of rookie superheroes. They try to save the earth after learning the identity of a villain who is responsible for environmental destruction.
