BTS makes their mark at UN and meets President Moon Jae In.

It's rather unusual for a K-pop Hallyu group to be performing in the arena in US, meeting famous talk show hosts, performing at American Music Awards and even giving a speech at the United Nations. But BTS has done it all. The quirky group started with no name and became an International name in their home country and in US. 

As their leader Nam Joon (RM) gave a motivating strong speech at the UN, he says love yourself, speak for yourself and find yourself. He admitted they were nothing at the start, with no sense of direction and even were told there was no hope for the group. However he hasn't given up, learn from mistakes and embraced whatever came to them. This has brought the 7 members across the globe marking their footsteps in US and EU. Their music videos in YouTube surpassed millions of viewers after the release within days! Concert tickets were sold out instantly and fans are camping in front of venue for days to catch a glimpse of them.


Fame was something else for the members. They are still the same ordinary guys from South Korea. During the recent Korea-France friendship tour, the members performed in front of many important and distinguished guests. The multicultural program has brought fans, visitors and guests know more about South Korea.  Of course the highlight was upon BTS. Guests were busy filming their performance via phone cameras...screaming and singing along with their songs. After the performance, South Korean President Moon Jae In and his First Lady personally came to greet the boys. He shook their hands, congratulating and had a little chat with them, photo shoot as well. Jin and Jung Kook even received autographs from the President himself. 

It is rather interesting the 7 members have made their country proud. They have also been featured in the Asia's TIME magazine as the front cover with their story. 
So where's the next stop after US, EU? Japan is their next place to mark their music...
Congrats to the guys for making the nation proud.
