Originally starting out with BROWN & FRIENDS, LINE FRIENDS gained popularity from creating stickers for LINE, with BTS being the first artists to create characters for the new series. Consisting of Koya, RJ, Shooky, Mang, Chimmy, Tata, Cooky, and Van, the featured characters have since been part of a diverse range of content for fans, including merchandise and animations such as BT21 UNIVERSE, which has garnered millions of views on YouTube.
