BTS becomes the first South Korean act to surpass 10 million followers on Twitter. The hashtag, #LoveBTS10M, paired with BTS's third twitter emoji started trending after this achievement was announced. BTS celebrated reaching 9 million followers just 1 month ago.

Stan Twitter is a subculture all its own, especially when it comes to BTS’s passionate fan base, ARMY. Their mobilization sent #LoveBTS10M trending worldwide shortly after the achievement was announced.

So, it makes sense that the group’s third emoji was inspired by the official logo that represents ARMY. The symbol is an inversion of the door-shaped logo used for the #BTSxAMAS and #ARMYxAMAs hashtag, which was unveiled on July 5 as part of the group’s newly extended brand identity.
