This BTS Meal will include nine pieces of Chicken McNuggets, a large World Famous Fries, a large drink and a South Korean McDonald’s inspired sweet chilli and cajun dipping sauce respectively. BTS’ label Bighit Music said:
“The band has great memories with McDonald’s. We’re excited about this collaboration and can’t wait to share the BTS Meal with the world,”
BTS has always been a fan of McDonald’s. The group is occasionally seen having a meal at the fast-food branch during tours, filming and on breaks. J-hope, Suga and V even own some McDonald’s merch. So it’s safe to say that this collaboration is approved. Many brands very much want to collaborate with BTS, but the ‘K-Pop army’ knows that the group only connects with brands that they personally like or whose message and ideas suit them. BTS has bagged countless awards for their work over the years, including 33 Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA), 29 Melon Music Awards and 24 Golden Disk Awards.
