BTS MAPS OUT NEW PROJECT, WORLD DOMINATION (UPDATE)

K-Pop giants BTS have announced Map of the Soul: Persona (Big Hit), their new EP, due 4/12, before they embark on their Love Yourself: Speak Yourself World Tour.

Their stadium tour will hit L.A., Chicago and New Jersey in May—with a second date recently added at the Rose Bowl—followed by Sao Paulo, London and Paris.

Persona will be BTS' seventh project, following a #1 bow with Love Yourself: Answer, which topped the chart with 185k. Expectations should far exceed that number this year, as the BTS phenomenon continues to grow stateside, setting up what promises to be one of the biggest debuts of the year.

UPDATE: Added to their release week is an appearance on SNL as the musical guest for 4/13, the day after Persona drops.

Preorders will be available 3/15.
