On the other hand, it should be noted that today, UNICEF uploaded a new campaign to its social networks with the boys of BTS, with which it is sought that all young people feel accompanied and supported, just as they do with BTS, in order to end the violence.
Respect, love and kindness are essential.
Join @bts_twt and help create a world where every young person feels seen and supported. 💙 💜 #BTSLoveMyself #ENDviolence pic.twitter.com/2vAigUEZAI
