Watch BTS Tease ‘Run BTS!’ Return With a Pickleball Showdown in Toronto
The group's cherished series makes a comeback with Run BTS 2.0 premiering in October.
BTS is returning with new episodes of their popular variety show Run BTS!, and a teaser offers a glimpse into the group's playful spirit. Filmed in Toronto, the preview showcases the seven members enjoying a picnic reminiscent of the group's past picnic games. The friendly competition kicks in with a "speed walk" and "red light, green light."
Jung Kook's enthusiastic running around the picnic is captured as he playfully asks, "Why are you so fast?" He later stumbles while the others laugh. The real showdown arrives when the group engages in a pickleball tournament, with the loser facing a penalty. The teaser showcases the chaotic match, with members cheering and reacting to shots.
As the tournament concludes, a Run BTS! 2.0 title card appears, hinting at a new era for the series. Fans are particularly excited, as BTS just completed their North American leg of the ARIRANG World Tour and will soon embark on the South American leg. Their album ARIRANG secured the group's seventh No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200, staying on the chart for 27 weeks.
The first episode of the new Run BTS! era premieres on Oct. 6 at 8 p.m. KST, with the second episode following on Oct. 11 at the same time. Check out the teaser for Run BTS! below.
