With their MTV Unplugged performance, BTS has joined a list of luminaries that includes Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Adele and Bon Jovi.
The South Korean juggernauts, however, have an ARMY on their side!
The chart-topping K-pop superstars made their MTV Unplugged debut Tuesday night, from a stage in Seoul, South Korea.
Their half-hour set was filled with hits, rotating backdrops, wardrobe changes, and a surprise cover of Coldplay’s “Fix You.”
Social media was lit up in the hours after BTS’ performance went live, as the ARMY turned to Twitter to share their thoughts and favorite moments. “Fix You” was a superheated talking point.
Check out some of the best reaction below.

"It’s also worth mentioning that there have been few other recent performances that showcase Jin’s expansive range better than this one: he dexterously slipped from lower harmonies to his breathy falsetto with a trademark smile. Coldplay should be proud of these guys." #BTSonMTV pic.twitter.com/754rvUs6m0
