Girlz With Fun: A BTS Podcast

By Girlz with Fun

Welcome to Girlz With Fun, a BTS podcast by ARMY, for ARMY. We got tired of "experts" who weren't part of the fandom, and decided to take back the mic. We cover all BTS related news and events happening within the fandom: from marketing strategies to hairstyle changes! For additional podcast updates, follow us on our socials (Instagram, Facebook, & Twitter) @girlzwithfunpod.
