BTS magazine covers that show off their star power

1) Variety Magazine, September 2020

Variety Magazine invited BTS to be the star of their September 2020 Grammys issue cover. Variety even crowned them Group of the Year in 2019 and awarded them the Record of the Year award in 2021 for their song Butter.

The members played off each others’ energy, showing off their impeccable teamwork in the group shot. When the seven of them are in the room, they demand attention, and that is what the cover relayed.

While the behind-the-scenes video showed the members goofing off and having fun, come showtime, they were back to being seven suave musicians in their impeccably stylish Alexander McQueen and Tom Ford suits. Each member had their own individual magazine cover shoots where they displayed their natural charms and gorgeous visuals.

Celebrating the journal's 10th anniversary, the group was awarded the 2020 Music Innovator Award by the Wall Street Journal for their continuous efforts in taking music to newer heights.

The group wore matching monochrome suits for the magazine and looked elegant and ready to run the world in their photoshoots. Each member also got their own separate solo cover as well.

The members spoke about what innovation means to them and how they’re continuously evolving to show new sides of themselves, and that’s exactly what they did in these photoshoots as well. They showed their mature and poised side for the readers to enjoy.

3) TIME Magazine, December 2020

BTS has graced the TIME magazine cover on three different occasions. In 2018, they made their debut on the TIME magazine cover where they were named the Next Generation Leaders. In 2021 they were once again on the cover with the CEO of HYBE, Bang Shi-hyuk.

HYBE was recognized as one of the 100 Most Influential Companies in the world and BTS had a big role to play in that. But by far, their best TIME cover had to be when they won TIME’s Entertainer of the Year award and were on the cover for the same in December 2020.

They were crowned the best band in the world and looked the part in the photos as well, donning their crisp business suits and serious and intense visuals. The group looked ready for world-domination and that is exactly what they have achieved.
