B★Verse Manila, the first-everimmersive AI experience and exhibition dedicated to BTS, has officially opened its doors at Gateway Mall 2, Araneta City, Quezon City.

A Magical Welcome for ARMY
The first thing you need to do is
present your ticket at the designated counter. Once the staff validates your
ticket, they’ll be giving you a brochure and some special gifts - including a
random photocard. It's the perfect keepsake for every ARMY, and if you come
with friends, you can even trade if you’re after getting your bias member’s photocard.
The Purple Carpet Experience
A walkway that’s ARMY-approved and worthy. The purple carpet will lead you to the VR experience room. With rows of tables and enough devices that could easily accommodate 50-80 people, every seat promises an intimate encounter with BTS. The orientation will guide you through using the VR equipment and eye mask provided. As the show begins, there’s really only the SCREAMING and FANGIRLING left to do.
You'll feel closer to BTS than ever before, enjoying four
performances that make you feel like the boys are within reach. Staff are
always on hand to assist with any issues, ensuring a smooth and immersive
experience.
Exploring the Seven Planets
After the VR show, you'll enter
the mesmerizing Seven Planets exhibition. Greeted by a huge blue Christmas tree
adorned with member photos, you'll journey through planets representing each
BTS member:
· RM Planet: A haven of flowers and greenery, reflecting Namjoon’s love for nature.
· Jin's Satellite: A celestial space reminding ARMY of Jin's connection to the moon and his song "The Astronaut."
· Suga's Art Planet: Filled with artistic designs and playful lighting, showcasing the producer's unmatched creativity.
· Jimin's Aqua Planet: A serene, reflection-themed room, mirroring Jimin's transparent and pure personality.
· J-Hope Planet: Vibrant with street art, celebrating J-Hope's hip-hop and dance roots.
· V's Film Planet: A tribute to V's love for photography and classic media.
· Jungkook's Planet: Decorated with his iconic tattoos, creating an edgy and personal space.
Each room features exclusive The
Fact Music Awards photos and an interactive LED screen, offering a visual feast
that cameras can't capture. This is definitely one of our favorite sections, so
