BTS and ARMY are revolutionary. In this episode I unpack what I am calling ‘the love yourself, speak yourself revolution’ that is taking place amongst BTS and ARMY. I introduce my concept of what makes a modern-day revolutionary, as well as ‘practising revolutionaries’, and how each and every one of us are just that… practising revolutionaries. Finally, I outline the components of the love yourself, speak yourself revolution as per my final chapter in I Am ARMY: It’s time to begin.
