BTS has gained more popularity in America because they won Top Social Artist last Billboard Music Awards. “As a Korean, I feel really proud about them representing South Korea globally. They’ve suffered and accomplished many things throughout the years and I’m so happy for them!” said Gina Song, an SAS junior.

BTS will be performing in the Staple Center on Sept. 5, 6,8, and 9. At first BTS only announced they were going to be performing on the 5th, 6th, and 8th of Sept. but due to high demand they added another day. They will also perform in Oracle Arena in Oakland on Sept. 12.
