All you BTS ‘ARMY’ (fan club name), let’s hear it!” Governor Moore drew attention by including Korean subtitles in the video. The video has garnered an enthusiastic response, with over 500,000 views and more than 26,000 “likes.” BTS will perform their “ARIRANG” world tour at Baltimore’s M&T Bank Stadium, a 70,000-seat venue, on the 10th and 11th.
