Seoul, Nov 20 (TIWN) K-pop stars BTS were delighted to let in their fans, whom they call the ARMY, on the process of making their latest album BE (Deluxe Edition) as they wanted to stay connected with them.

In the last few months, the seven members -- RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook — have been giving glimpses into the making of their album, which is out now.

"We showed the process of making the album with fans through livestreaming and sharing videos. It feels like we made it together with the fans," RM said at a global press conference on Friday that was attended by all the members except SUGA, who is recovering from a shoulder surgery.

"We thought of sharing the process because we couldn't meet our fans. We had physical connection with the fans, but felt we were going to get disconnected from them. It's like a good restaurant sharing their secret recipe. I believe it was the right choice," he added.
