I have come to like K-Pop through BTS and I feel like their popularity is continuously increasing. There’s even a cappuccino in Rome named after Jimin. I also realized their popularity after many people left comments on a cover I did of V’s song ‘Snow Flower’.

Park Jisung, who currently lives in London, also gave his thoughts about BTS’s popularity.
When I went to do a soccer commentary in 2018, BTS’s song was played in the stadium. I never thought something like that would happen, and while I listened to their song being played at the World Cup stadium, I could feel just how great BTS’s popularity was.
— Park Jisung
Even his wife Kim Minji, who is also an ARMY, stated, “I’ve actually seen people singing BTS songs on the streets in London.”
This talk show goes in depth with the seven members about the history of their success in the global music market.
