If you are a fan of BTS, this is just for you! There will be an upcoming exciting photobook launch at Suntec on 4 May 2021.

The title of the photobook is “The Fact BTS Photobook Special Edition: We Remember.” So what does this photobook include?

Each photo book comes with 5 mini posters and 32 photocards. All of which are limited-edition that you wouldn’t want to miss out on for your collection.

Each copy is available at S$55 (before GST), with a minimum spend of $100 up to a maximum of 3 combined receipts. Receipts must be dated from 14 April to 4 May.

Preorders are available at Suntec City, North Wing #01-506/507 and can be collected at the purchase counters from 4 May 2021.

On top of that, there are also life-sized photo ops, which are basically pages of the photo book itself. This looks just like a museum gallery for BTS fans.

That’s not all because there are also TINYTAN face masks available in black and white. Each piece is $28.
