About this listen

BTS songs are mostly in Korean. So how did women in their 40s, 50s, and even 80s become deeply connected ARMYs?

In this episode of Chasing K-pop, host Chase talks with Carol, founder of the BTS ARMY Over 40 Club, a global community of 5,000+ fans that began with a late-night TikTok post during the 2020 pandemic.

We explore how BTS’s music helped fans find self-love, healing, and belonging across language and age barriers. From navigating cancer and grief to creating real-world impact through fundraising and global friendships, these women show how fandom can become a powerful source of support.

This conversation challenges the idea that fandom has an age limit and reveals why BTS’s message resonates so deeply with older fans, especially during comeback and concert seasons.
