vi a gente flipando con que las españolas en la btsbola cantásemos hasta las partes sin letra de las canciones, y acabo se recordar viendo el partido que nuestro himno no tiene letra y cada vez que hay que cantarlo por alguna movida de estas, tenemos que inventarnoslo
pues eso
The Guardian gives a FULL SCORE of 5/5 STAR ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ in their review of #BTS's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium Concert in London!
"Pure joy and astonishing versatility at the K-pop Titan’s first UK show in 7 years"
"No matter how drilled we know K-pop bands to be, #BTS’s versatility is still astonishing. The stands literally shake as they thunder through pop-rap crossover Hooligan; Like Animals cements their prowess with balladry, soft & floaty enough to feel like it’s being sung directly to each of the 65,000 people in the room. The industrial-level bangers mid-show are a thrilling energy release and the surprise songs that aren’t usual setlist fixtures seem to delight even the band, who grin and sing along to each other’s parts."
"The joy onstage is reflected back approximately one million-fold. It reverberates through the wall of screams and the sea of lit-up Bomb sticks. They end on a gentle note, motioning to each other to take out their in-ear monitors to hear fans sing Into the Sun back to them."
"A cynical mind might think the in-the-round staging provides more opportunity to sell expensive pit tickets. A cynical mind might see the brands blacked out on the water bottles onstage and think … “clearly Fiji Water didn’t cough up sponsorship”. A cynical mind might behold the light-up “Armybomb sticks” wielded by the crowd and think … “are those mind-control devices?” But the Arirang Tour makes it hard to be cynical about #BTS... I started the show ambivalent and by the end I had a favourite member (Jimin) and an urge to learn Korean. I wanted to make them my wallpaper and bump into them at Duck & Waffle. I didn’t even have a Bomb stick so if they were controlling my mind it was through other means. Whatever #BTS has, it’s potent."

It’s 65K a night and it’s for now their most attended concert ever surpassing Tampa with 64K. Just wait for Stade de France and Allianz Arena these two are going to be insane 😭

I’m still annoyed that armys whined and moaned so much whenever some stops got beloved songs, now the DJ is repeating so many songs, and we will never get to the point of scarcity where they start playing genuinely rare gems or BTS WORLD OSTs lmao.
— One of the biggest strengths of BTS' "SWIM" is how instantly memorable it is for fans and non-fans alike.
The song pairs an uplifting, anthemic chorus and polished pop production, infectious melody, and universal theme of perseverance make it easy for anyone to connect with, regardless of whether they're a BTS fan.
It's the kind of song that sticks with you even with just a first listen, which is exactly why so many non-fans have found themselves singing along.
