The Korea Herald’s K-pop team explored the abundance of BT21 merchandise at Line Friends’ Itaewon branch in Seoul.

The Itaewon branch holds special significance for the internationally beloved collection. It is where the members of BTS sat down and came up with ideas for the BT21 characters.

At the store, early sketches of the BT21 characters and the members’ signatures can be found.
