On June 10, BTS producer Pdogg and creative director LoneTone took to their Instagram handles and shared the HYBE building’s new look with the adornment of APOBANGPO.

What is APOBANGPO?
The term APOBANGPO was first coined by the group’s maknae Jungkook, signifying the unwavering bond between the group and its loyal fanbase. Later, during FESTA 2023, BTS’ leader RM recommended that it would be a special gift for fans worldwide if HYBE could have the word inscribed on the building’s exterior.
In a special nod to this year’s BTS FESTA 2024, HYBE revealed that their headquarters building in Yongsan, Seoul is getting a new makeover. The premises are getting an external wrapping with the word APOBANGO and the work will be completed by June 30.
Marking the megastar group’s 11 debut anniversary on June 13, this special surprise is a collaborative effort of HYBE subsidiary BIGHIT MUSIC and the BTS members. Though the gift comes a year after RM's recommendation, fans are equally touched by his heartfelt decision from their beloved group and its agency.
It’s especially touching, since except for Jin, no other members can attend the FESTA 2024 event in person due to their military enlistment.
