BU — BTS Universe Blog — The BTS Effect

The Story of Save Me

Save Me is a 15-episode webtoon that BigHit released in April 2019. The webtoon was announced on a Twitter account called Smeraldo Books and is currently available for free on the Naver webtoon app and website.

The HYYH story of the Bangtan Universe features seven main characters, one that takes the name of each BTS member. Even though we’ve got all seven as main characters, the HYYH storyline does focus a bit more on Seokjin’s character as the protagonist. This webtoon follows him and his actions, and he’s the only character we have real insight into here.

Separating the Bangtan Universe from BTS

The BU runs parallel to the real BTS and their songs/album releases. While the BU does encompass many of BTS’s releases, there will be releases that aren’t canon to the universe.
