BTS fans, youve got to see Googles trivia quest
Google Search added a little trivia quest to mark BTS' release of Arirang, the K-pop icons' first album in four years. And we're talking we're talking lachimolala level knowledge required.
If you type "BTS" into the Google search bar, you'll see a little animation pop up with the album icons. However, it doesn't stop there, as you'll notice a small ship in a bottle sitting at the bottom of the screen.
If you click the ship — a nod to the video for BTS' lead Arirang single "SWIM" video — you'll either be prompted to scan a QR code with your smartphone or if you're already on mobile, you'll be sent to a "Scavenger Hunt" game in which you can answer BTS trivia questions to unlock cards to build a song deck. They're not easy questions (the emoji question had me pacing) and if you're stuck, there's already a whole Reddit thread happening.
At the time of writing, over 16 million quests have been solved by Google users. That's a lot of BTS knowledge.
It's a big day indeed for ARMY (BTS fans), with the release of the group's 10th studio album, the first since announcing their reunion in June 2025. BTS called a hiatus in June 2022 in order for members RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook to fulfil South Korea's mandatory military service (which they all completed by June 2025), as well as spend time on solo projects.
Now, they're looking at a colossal, 82-date world tour for Arirang, which will both be livestreamed in cinemas and on Netflix.
