With all eyes on the 2024 Paris Olympics, K-pop boy band BTS has grabbed the limelight for all the right reasons. The musical group was recognized as a representative of South Korea alongside Kimchi (traditional Korean sidedish) and Hanbok (Korea’s traditional outfit). While the global impact of BTS is undeniable, the members expressed their gratitude for the honor.
RM, aka Namjoon, and V took to Instagram and shared the moment with their fandom, “ARMY.” The post featured facts about South Korea, including its capital, population, language, and currency.
