South Korean mega-hit Gangnam Style may be taken off gym playlists in the greater Seoul region - but K-pop giants BTS can stay - under new rules aimed at stemming a rising tide of coronavirus infections.

The regulations, aimed at stopping gym-goers breathing too hard or splashing sweat on others, ban gyms from playing music with a faster tempo than 120 beats per minute during group exercises like zumba and spinning.
