Bangtan Scholars is a place for current and aspiring scholars of BTS to connect, inspire, & grow together. We empower those engaging or interested in BTS scholarship to promote each other's work, exchange ideas, and expand knowledge across different disciplines worldwide.
In January 2020, the first-ever BTS conference (BTS: A Global Interdisciplinary Conference Project) was held in London.
What started as conversations in Facebook groups and tweets between ARMYs (Cecilia and her friends) who attended the conference and became friends soon became a passion project driven by our love of BTS, research, and finding ways to connect this community of people better.
Whether you have been in your field or industry for decades or are simply a college student starting on your path to research, we invite you to join us and be a part of this journey.
The Bangtan Scholars network aims to be an open and collaborative space where we can support each other as scholars at all levels.
A scholar can be described as a person devoted to learning who shares knowledge, ideas, findings, results, and such to enhance a topic or area.
Connected through passion and interest in the greater impact of BTS, Bangtan Scholars are not limited to individuals in a specific discipline and come from diverse backgrounds and experiences.
A Bangtan Scholar is anyone who engages in furthering knowledge and research on BTS-focused topics.
Our community members can use our directory and discover exciting opportunities and collaborations across academic spaces of BTS-related works.
Today, we have over 44K+ followers across all of our social media platforms and have over 200+ resources in our database which we've partnered with the BTS Syllabus team. We've also been featured in media and research journals such as Bandwagon Asia, the Journal of Community Psychology by Wiley, CNN Español, Reuters, the Korean Society for Women's Literature, and more.
