BTS, the new kings of pop, conquer a deafening, sold-out Rose Bowl

from the South Korean consulting firm Hyundai Research Institute, estimated that BTS alone was worth $3.6 billion to the South Korean economy and that 1 in every 13 tourists to South Korea in 2017 cited BTS as a reason for their trip.After a performance on “Saturday Night Live” and this sold-out U.S. stadium tour, those numbers must be rising, even in places you might not expect.

In the minutes before the show, as the sun went down over the lip of the Rose Bowl, blood pressure spiked in the crowd. One young fan screamed in delight as a BTS music video clip played on the stage’s LED wall. The band was ready for it. From the sci-fi hip-hop bounce of “Dionysus” and “Not Today” to the sweet tropical balladry of “Euphoria” and the self-aware, stardom-critiquing EDM of “Idol,” its music arced between almost every modern genre.

Over the course of the three-hour show, BTS’ members were lifted on trapezes over the crowd. They climbed Greek towers and slid down inflatable slides. Singers oscillated for solo numbers, then rejoined their band to mug for selfies in front of an undulating sea of those $60 lightsticks. Costume changes came every few songs, from billowing tunics to covetable streetwear. They could dance together with the utmost precision, or just kick back and marvel at the scene before them.

1. Largest demographic is 20s, then people in their 30s, then 40s and teens are tied. Please stop w/ the pre-teen and bemused father narrative, the crowd is diverse. 2. 60k was the actual attendance as reported by the agency. 3. Please don't mention other kpop artists when +

Not all of us in the fandom are k-pop fans. In fact many of us are anything but that. I seriously wish all reporters before writing any articles about BTS_twt would do a quick search on Youtube? Starting with 'Who is BTS? Meet the 7 members of Bangtan'.

They can't even speak Engish. They memorize the English lyrics.

F... Off its 60k up. Almost 120k in 2 days
