In the video, the band's seven members will introduce key Seoul landmarks such as the newly constructed Seoullo 7017 overpass, Hangang Park and Jamsil Olympic Stadium.

BTS has also been chosen as Seoul's honorary tourism ambassador, the city said. The band will travel to Japan in October to promote the South Korean capital's travel hot spots. (Yonhap)
