2021 Special Talk Show 'Let's BTS'

BTS set yet another lasting record.

BTS!

BTS is nominated for a Grammy,

America's most authoritative music ceremony.

Hello. Not just in Korea,

but so many people worldwide must have waited for this moment.

2021 Special Talk Show, Let's BTS.

Over the next 100 minutes,

we will reveal everything about BTS.

Shall we meet them on stage?

It's "Dynamite"!

Let's go.

1, 2, 3, let's go.

That was a great performance.

Come this way. Welcome.

Hello. - Welcome. Come this way.

This is very new.

Hello. - Hi.

Hello. Hello.

Hello. - It's been so long.

We met at other award shows too.

It's great to see you. Let's sit. - Okay.

Why don't you say hello to our viewers?

Okay. Bangtan. - 2, 3. Bangtan.

Hello, we're BTS. - Hello, we're BTS.

Hello, I'm Jin, the handsome guy in BTS.

Gosh, Jin. That's new. - That was great.

I'd like all of you to give an individual introduction like him.

Hello, I'm Suga. It's nice to meet you guys.

Hello, I'm Jungkook.

Hello, I'm RM, the leader of BTS. Nice to meet you.

You're making me feel self-conscious about how I introduced myself.

Be a little more cute. - He's right.

Jimin, give us a cute introduction.

Show them your charm. - Do it.

Hello, everyone. I'm Jimin.

V, show them your charm. - Hello, I'm V.

j-hope, you're my only hope. - Me?

Hello, I'm your hope, j-hope.

Nice, j-hope. You're the best.

Gosh.

But to be honest, this is very awkward.

From what I know, you guys appeared on...

many talk shows abroad. - Yes, we did.

You were on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show"...

and "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon".

Back when I went to the States, I actually went...

to see "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon".

You were on that show including many other talk shows abroad.

But this is your first talk show in Korea, right?

Yes. - Is it your first?

I feel so much at ease because it's with you.

I'm serious. My hands aren't as sweaty.

Why?

To be honest, when we're on a talk show abroad,

all we do is react to the stuff that RM says. "Yes!"

We were actually very worried. - Yes, we were.

We're not exactly the funny type.

And we're not eloquent speakers either.

So we thought it'd be nice to have someone...

who could lead the conversation.

But when I watched "Run, BTS",

You watched it? - you guys were so funny there.

You guys are great together.

It's because it's just us. - We're comfortable with each other.

We're funny when it's just us, but when someone else joins...

We suddenly become very meek.

To be honest, I feel a little awkward right now.

A little? - Yes.

We still need to get used to it.

Considering the difficult situation everybody is in these days,

it's hard not to mention this.

While many people were suffering due to COVID-19,

Yes. - you gave consolation and hope...

to many people with your great songs and performances.

Back when I was young,

the Grammy Awards was something we couldn't even dream of.

Yes. - It used to be like that.

But you got the chance to do a performance there.

I bet you still enjoy watching it. - Yes.

Let's watch it together.

Many people are interested in pop culture...

and pop music. - It's Jo Su Mi.

What? - It's Jo Su Mi.

Thanks to BTS, many people have grown fond of K-Pop.

I can feel their popularity rising in Europe as well.

Maybe even more popular than in the US as days go by.

In Rome, they even created a cappuccino named "Jimin".

Really? - Cappuccino.

Jimpuccino. - And as for my personal experience,

back when I did a cover on "Snow Flower"...

on my personal YouTube channel,

I watched this. - many people around the world...

thanked me on the comments.

And that's when I realized how famous BTS was.

I could actually feel it. - This is amazing.

We made it.

Back in 2018, I went to Russia for the World Cup,

and I actually heard BTS' song playing in the stadium...

in Korean. - Yes.

Back when I was a soccer player...

and had matches in stadiums abroad,

I never once thought that could ever even happen.

But once I heard their song playing in the stadium,

I started to realize how this was actually possible.

It was eye-opening to realize their amazing popularity.

Yes, I agree. In London,

you can actually hear teenagers singing their songs outside.

I hope you stay dignified...

and continue to make many people happy with your acts.

The Grammys are meant to be the epitome of all music awards.

It's not separated by location,

country, or genre.

It's supposed to award musical excellence...

no matter where in the world it comes from.

And the fact that BTS has been nominated for a Grammy...

definitely shows them being recognized...

at the top of their field.

I want our song to be number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100...

and the Billboard Hot 200.

I also want us to go to the Grammy Awards.

I hope we'll get to perform...

at the Grammys one day.

We promise we'll perform here next year.

Growing up in South Korea,

we always dreamed about standing on the Grammys stage.

Thanks to all our fans for making this dream come true.

And we will be back.

That clip became really popular. - I was so surprised.
