SEOUL: South Korean mega-hit "Gangnam Style" may be taken off gym playlists in the great Seoul region - but K-pop giants BTS can stay - under new rules aimed at stemming a rising tide of coronavirus infections. They come as tighter social distancing rules - such as smaller gatherings and shorter store hours - begin to bite this week. "Now I have to worry about the bpm of the song I'm playing," wrote a user in an online club of gym owners. "I'm grateful that I can still work out at a gym," he said, adding: "Wouldn't most people listen to their own music on their airpods anyways?" wrote an online user.
