Play for the world.” It’s an apt characterisation of what they’ve always done – mixing the cultural heritage of their home country with global influence, an approach that lights up ‘Arirang’."

It's been 7 years since @BTS_twt has held a sold out concert at MetLife for their tour, they will be returning today at the stadium for their concert! (Capacity: 82.5K)
Their recent comeback to the stadium was for World Cup 2026 Halftime performance, they will be returning once again for their Sold Out 2 days concerts for Arirang World Tour!
Netflix uploading the performance right in the middle of this debate is soooo cool. Hehee we will be organising a mass watch party for the comeback live on Netflix on that same day right right
BTS when they see food : "need to take a picture"
Because they are a twink fandom and no twink fandom can stand BTS winning. We have to put community note on this, to both set this straight and demonetize their posts, since they all ignore clarifications

ART HAS NO ALIENS

Not @RecordingAcad restricting the comments under this reel where zeena talked about the globalization of Asian music but somehow failed to recognize BTS being part of that. Her disdain for BTS runs deep

Namjoon posted Marcel Duchamp's L.H.O.O.Q.
Marcel with this art work questioned why society places certain artworks on a pedestal while dismissing others.
