So although it’s not a surprise that Ryan Reynolds would reference BTS when possible, fans were still caught off guard by the unexpected reference in Welcome to Wrexham.

Welcome to Wrexham is an American sports documentary series that… documents the events of Welsh association football club (Wrexham A.F.C) as told by the club’s owners, Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds.

— Wikipedia summary of Welcome to Wrexham

During one of the episodes of the series, a “decibel meter” to measure fans’ cheers for their team had a surprising reference to BTS ARMY. The first mark on the meter was the sound of a “Welsh football announcer,” and the following was a “jet engine.” But taking the highest spot on the decibel meter was a “BTS fan,” representing the loudest the stadium could get.

ARMY were pleasantly surprised by the reference, especially knowing that Ryan Reynolds must have been a part of it.

Watching the Hulu series "Welcome To Wrexham", if familiar, the team is owned by Rob McElhenny and Ryan Reynolds, Epi. 13 had Ryan add this meter for this particular game!! #BTSARMY We Win! 🤣🤣#BTS @bts_twt pic.twitter.com/MWrJB8qznB

Most ARMY seemed to agree with their placement on the scale, given their immense passion and support of BTS.

Although some fans joked that BTS fans should be even higher up the scale.

The gap isn’t big enough between Jet Engine and BTS Fans. Ryan should really attend a concert himself to experience it then he will understand 😂

ARMY are truly “the standard for cheers.”

I know BTS and ARMY are the standard but I didn’t even expect us to be the standard for cheers
