Back in July 2020, BTS members enrolled in Hanyang Cyber University’s Advertising & Media MBA program. The rappers RM, Suga, and J-Hope enrolled in Spring 2020 to commence their studies whereas V and Jimin were to begin their MBA in Fall 2020. As far as the eldest member Jin is concerned, he enrolled in Hanyang Cyber University Graduate School during Spring 2017 and is currently on a break. The interviews were conducted online for the members amid COVID-19. Meanwhile, Jungkook, the youngest member of the BTS, is studying Entertainment & Broadcasting at Global Cyber University.
Professionally, BTS released their album 'BE (Deluxe Edition)' on November 20 which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard 2020 with their title track 'Life Goes On' earning No. 1 spot on Hot 100 on Billboard charts. They earned their third No. 1 on the Hot 100 chart (following 'Dynamite' and Jawsh 685 and Jason Derulo's 'Savage Love - Laxed – Siren Beat') and first with a Korean song. The title track became the first Korean song to ever top the chart.
