A term frequently used by
ARMY (BTS fandom). It is a very special name given specifically to the international
ARMY from its Korean counterpart.
This name serves as a symbol of the strong bond shared between the fandom even being continent/countries apart. According to the Korean
ARMY, the international counterpart exhibits the trait of being "Lovely", therefore, in recognition and response to the tremendous amount of
love, support and dedication they have been showing to BTS, the Korean
ARMY crowned their international counterpart as being "International Lovelies", abbreviated as "I-Lovelies."
