K-pop titan BTS will make a three-minute speech supporting UNICEF's fresh youth agenda, "Generation Unlimited," on Sept. 24 at the Trusteeship Council Chamber of the United Nations Headquarters in New York. The team also will stage a gig.







It is the first time that a K-pop group has spoken at the U.N. headquarters.







South Korean President Moon Jae-in and U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres will participate in the BTS event.







"Generation Unlimited" is a global partnership to create opportunities and boost investments for children and those aged between 10 and 24.







BTS also has been involved in the "LOVE MYSELF" project, which had raised 1 billion won ($891,000) as of June 2018. It was reported that the money would go to UNICEF for a campaign to eradicate violence against children around the world over two years.







The group is on a world tour after releasing its latest album "LOVE YOURSELF 結 'Answer'" on Aug. 24.
