After BTS’s comeback concert on Saturday, AFP looks at the intense competition, the grueling training, the tight control over stars’ lives and the sometimes obsessive fan behavior in the industry. 300 GROUPS South Korean record labels launch dozens of new groups every year in the hope they will become the next BTS or Blackpink, but with some 300 outfits already out there, the big time is elusive. The tiny minority of the thousands of young hopefuls

Heavy rain brought by Typhoon Ragasa caused the barrier lake above Matai’an Creek in Hualien’s Guangfu Township to overflow on Sept. 23 of last year. The sudden rush of water and mud destroyed a major bridge and swept through nearby villages, leaving significant damage in its wake. The barrier lake was formed in July, when heavy rain caused landslides and blocked the creek’s natural flow. As rainwater built up, the lake grew increasingly unstable. When Typhoon Ragasa hit, the water level rose rapidly and finally overflowed. In the aftermath, volunteers across Taiwan, known as “shovel supermen,” stepped in
A new international study revealed that spruce trees in an Italian forest can respond to a solar eclipse. To be more specific, they actually anticipate it by synchronizing their bioelectrical signals hours before the event. To monitor this phenomenon, scientists attached special sensors to the trees to track their electrical activity. They discovered that older trees started changing their signals even before the eclipse occurred. Researchers believe these older trees may store memories of past events and send early warnings to younger ones. This bioelectrical signaling system appears to help the forest avoid problems like drying out during the
