According to Bustle, “BTS revealed more about the bracelets on the BBMAs red carpet, explaining that the jewelry’s pink and white band isn’t just a pretty colour for the friendship bracelets, but it actually pays tribute to the group as a whole according to the group’s red carpet interview.”  The band explained, “Our cover of the album is pink, so she made it like, white and pink.  That was like, so kind of her.”  And look at the BFFs backstage at the BBMAs below.
