It’s the first Tuesday of the month and that means BTS fans need to level up their selfie shooting skills to celebrate ARMY Selca Day. As with most K-POP Selca events, the objective is to share photos online with fellow fans and comment on each other’s post. It’s a great form of online bonding, especially when you’re stuck at home. Can’t decide on what to post for #ARMYSelcaDay? Let the Bangtan boys be your style peg and check out these suggestions below.

Reveal a whole new look
Why not take this opportunity to pull off a surprise reveal? This selfie move is most effective for those who rarely post their IRL photos online. Remember to keep it cool and casual like Jungkook who just low-key showed off his new color, causing a fan meltdown. Since the hairdo’s debut, stans have been caught in a heated online debate arguing whether the color is blue or purple. (This is serious business.)

Make it extra special
And yes, we put an emphasis on being “extra.” If you’re going to do a cute mirror selfie then level up the production value with a full-length mirror, surrounded by aesthetic props that you can find around the home. Take a look at Jimin’s photo above for inspiration!

Flex your fandom
Let your fanboy or fangirl flag fly and use your BTS merchandise as the background of your selfie pic. Show off your personality and be proud of your fandom! Our boy j-hope did just that during his birthday livestream celebration by wearing his Totoro sweater and showcasing his toy collection.

Come in costume
Whether it’s your home country’s cultural garb or a casual cosplay of your bias, there’s no better time to dress up in costume than a selca day! Just check out Jin in his traditional Korean outfit.

Use funny filters
Don’t be afraid of applying the wackier filters to your photo and learn to have a good laugh. This will surely spread good vibes all around just like RM’s snap.

Suit up in BTS colors
Make a formal affair out of the selfie session and wear your snazziest outfit in the BTS official color of silver-gray. Suga’s “Blue and Grey” suit is just perfect for the theme.

Organize an ARMY groupfie
As they say, “the more, the merrier.” Are you living with fellow BTS stans? Then get together and copy the signature band poses! And even if you’re separated by distance, you could always hop in a conference call and screenshot away! Try recreating the one above featuring V, Jimin, and j-hope for starters.
How are you going to celebrate #ARMYSelcaDay?
