Thank you to over 900 persons from BTS ARMY who participated online. It was a fun evening!
I will be continuing a new series of Q&A to help the BTS Army come up to speed on Jungian Psychology in preparation for the release of the #MAP_OF_THE_SOUL_PERSONA Album.
This is in response to many comments I have had from the BTS Army relating to how KPOP emerged from the culture of the Republic of Korea, and then BTS broke out of, or perhaps enhanced, KPOP. These ideas are especially important for understanding the launch of the #MAP_OF_THE_SOUL_PERSONA album on April 12, 2019.
I will do my best to respond to other comments and questions of the #BTS Army in the chat, and in later Comments on the Replay.
BTS has been addressing mental health in their music for years, and they have an incredible story, but an even more important event is the breaking of the taboo of talking about mental health, and the spontaneous beginnings of @BTS_AHC_Project, a global project in multiple languages, which is offering volunteer anonymous counseling to people all over the world, who don't have access to mental health professionals. My interview with @BTS_AHC_Project is here:

Reference:" To help launch the United Nations' Generation Unlimited, an education and employment program for young people, K-pop super group BTS gave a speech about empowerment and love." The Washington Post. Kim NAM-joon, also known as RM, delivered this impressive speech, and impressed people around the world with his maturity:

BTS's new album, Map of the Soul, is set to be released on April 12, 2019. It is based on Dr. Murray Stein's _Jung's Map of the Soul: An Introduction_. RM's impressive persona is an explicit demonstration of what we mean when we say Individuation.
You are encouraged to watch the remarkable 3.25 minute documentary by Digital Fusion on the making of the 2009 Folio Edition of Dr. Jung's Red Book:
