Where my BTS ARMY at? The K-pop superstars have been moving at 100 miles per hour and they don’t show a SINGLE sign of slowing down. At least, not until they fully break the internet.
What’s up guys, It’s Emile here with Clevver News, and in case you’ve been living under a rock (or stanning Ariana Grande at Coachella this weekend) BTS has been DOMINATING the U.S., on the heels of their latest album release: Map of the Soul: Persona.
They recently teamed up with Halsey on the album’s first single “Boy With Luv,” and to say the music video was highly anticipated is the understatement of the century. In its first 24 hours, “Boy With Luv” rocked the YouTube charts with 78. MILLION. VIEWS. Yes, that was just in its first DAY.
The record topped fellow K-pop group BlackPink’s “Kill This Love” video, which was just shy of 57 million views in its first day. To put that into context of one of the hottest American performers right now – Ariana Grande’s “thank u, next” video received just 55.4 million views in its first day live.
“Boy With Luv” currently has 142 million views and counting. That is a lotta love from their ARMY. But they aren’t just breaking records online, either. BTS was the first K-pop group to be featured as a musical guest on SNL over the weekend. Fans camped out as early as the MONDAY before for the, AHEM, SATURDAY NIGHT performance.
The episode’s host Emma Stone admitted she was in total awe of their talent.
Emma and the rest of the women of SNL did a skit that just kind of showed how the rest of us feel. The ARMY took it really well, with one fan tweeting QUOTE “This is so great. Don’t be afraid to roast, ARMY are good sports. We roast ourselves and BTS all the time. Although you do get 1 detail wrong. We welcome all genders. BTS have plenty of male fans.”
The guys are no strangers to the American media. They’ve previously been paid visits to “Ellen”, “Good Morning America” and graced the GRAMMYs red carpet. So, yeah, they’re kind of everywhere, and just like everyone else, I’m honestly loving it. PLUS, they’re set to take the stage at the 2019 BBMA’s with Halsey and we cannot wait!
These guys are probably some of the BUSIEST guys in the WORLD right now, and that’s no exaggeration. But right now I’m curious to know, are you a member of ARMY?
