Hey BTS fans Apple Music is getting a new feature youre going to love
Apple kicked off its highly anticipated WWDC event today, with a keynote live-streamed from its Cupertino, Calif., headquarters and, among the flurry of software announcements, one stood out to me as especially relevant for music lovers, particularly fans of non-English groups like BTS.Whats coming: Pronunciation guides for translated lyrics in Apple Music. In Apple Music, the company explains in a release, Lyrics Translation helps users understand the words to their favorite songs, while Lyrics Pronunciation allows everyone to sing along, regardless of language.When: The feature will be included in new versions of Apples operating software for devices like phones and tablets this fall.The details: If youve ever found yourself grooving to BTS tunes like Telepathy or Fake Love, but struggled to figure out the correct pronunciation of the Korean words, then this new Apple Music feature is about to make your life a whole lot easier (check our post here to see if your device will be compatible with the upcoming software release).Korean being a character-based language can certainly make lyrics a bit tricky to decipher for a non-native speaker. Apples pronunciation guide for lyrics, meanwhile, means that you wont just see (in the case of BTS fans) the Korean-to-English words; youll also see how to pronounce them, phonetically. In other words, no more awkwardly guessing how to belt out a phrase like bogo sipda (I miss you) in Spring Day Apple Music will have you covered with a proper guide.Thats something for the fandom to keep in mind as it prepares to celebrate BTS Festa 2025 at the end of this week, Festa being the annual event that marks the debut date of whats now arguably the biggest pop group in the world (the remaining five members of which will come out of their mandatory Korean military service in a matter of days). And while BTS fans will no doubt appreciate the Apple Music update, it's worth adding that the feature is also a boon for fans of any global act that sings in a language other than their own -- whether it's K-pop groups like NewJeans and Stray Kids, or Latin pop stars, J-pop idols, and more.Its just too bad this feature wont be live in time for the Jin solo concert Im attending later this summer, so that I can sing along to more of Super Tuna than just the infectious chant cham-CHI!Don't Miss: Fans give BTS member Jung Kooks documentary I Am Still a perfect 100% on Rotten TomatoesThe post Hey BTS fans Apple Music is getting a new feature youre going to love appeared first on BGR.Today's Top DealsBest deals: Tech, laptops, TVs, and more salesBest Ring Video Doorbell dealsTodays deals: $15 Amazon credit, rare PS5 Pro sale, $263 HP Stream laptop, $298 Sony XM5 headphones, moreTodays deals: $299 Apple Watch Series 10, $38 Sony portable speaker, $249 DJI Mini 4K drone, more
