BTS Fans Think Suga Might Drop a New Agust D Album Soon

Seeing that Teen Vogue prides itself in its ability to resonate with the youth, writing and publishing an article about a band that's popular with the youth makes sense. Teen Vogue also uses the hype around BTS and its members to drive traffic to the article.

There has been a recent uproar in Japan revolving around glasses. These strict restrictions are being openly condemned by employees and media outlets alike.
This article is quite short. What it is about is the open condemnation of Japanese businesses choosing strict rules when it comes to what women can wear is unfair considering that men do not have the same restriction.

No UCU, people can’t just identify as black
Blackness is not something that can be switched on or off. It's a biological trait passed down from parent to child. It’s ancestral, deep-rooted and not something you can just assume
The article in essence is a critique of what The Universities and Colleges Union stated regarding race and identification, the statement was “Our rules commit us to ending all forms of discrimination, bigotry and stereotyping.
