There is no stopping for K-pop group BTS. As the septet is preparing for their US concert tour, they won another award from an American award-giving body. Additionally, their strong fandom, the Army, took home a coveted award.

The Bangtan Boys along with their Army and GOT7 member Jackson Wang are among the winners in the recently concluded 2018 Teen Choice Awards in Los Angeles, California. BTS took home the Choice International Artist award. Other nominees for the category are K-pop groups GOT7, BLACKPINK, EXO, and Super Junior as well as Latin boy band CNCO.

Although the idols failed to personally receive their multicolored surfboard, the group is grateful for another recognition. This is their second award from the Teen Choice Awards.

As always, BTS is celebrating along with their fans. But this time, it is more special for the Army. The fan group also won the Choice Fandom award at the 2018 Teen Choice Awards. The Army goes up against the fans of Taylor Swift (Swifties), One Direction (Directioners), Fifth Harmony (Harmonizers), BLACKPINK (Blinks), and CNCO (CNCOwners). This is the first time the Army won the award. Jackson of GOT7 also won the Choice Next Big Thing award against K-pop bands BLACKPINK, NCT, and Stray Kids, and YouTube stars Jacob Sartorius and MattyBRaps.

Meanwhile, BTS has unveiled some promotional images for their upcoming album Love Yourself: Answer. There are group photos as well as solo images of RM, Suga, Jin, Jungkook, Jimin, V, and J-Hope in the newly-released sets of promo materials.

A total 16 pictures were dropped for the "S" and "E" versions of the album. The "S" version features the boys in a brightly hued backdrop while the "E" photos have a much softer vibe. Check out the photos below.

BTS will officially drop the new album Love Yourself: Answer on August 24 with four different variants. The LP is the final part of BTS's Love Yourself series, which began in September 2017 with Love Yourself: Her. It was followed by record-breaking album Love Yourself: Tear.

The K-pop act is also set to kick off their Love Yourself world tour in Seoul on August 25 before heading to America for the US leg of the tour. Among the tour stops of BTS in the U.S. is at the Citi Field in New York on October 6. The stadium is currently the home of the New York Mets and has a capacity of 40,000 people. BTS is also the first ever Korean artists to hold a concert in the stadium.
