BTS is definitely one of the biggest stars in K-pop today and only k-pop fans who have been living under a rock would not know of this group. In fact, BTS's popularity is so extensive that it had managed to reach the cold shores of the United Kingdom where numerous British ARMY fans took to the streets to perform a flash mob of the group's songs.
With BTS finally announcing their first ever world tour dubbed as the "WINGS Tour," and with tickets being sold out ridiculously fast, the group's popularity only seems to grow as more international fans are exposed to the inspiring talent that is BTS. 2016 is also BTS's breakout year and with the success of their album WINGS, it's not surprising that many fans all over the world would cover the group's latest song "Blood, Sweat and Tears" and in one such occasion, the song was used as the background for a surprise flash mob in a street in London.
According to Koreaboo, the flash mob was planned and conducted by the BTS UK Fan Club called Hush Hush and throughout their street performance, you would see the group dancing to the choreography of "Blood, Sweat and Tears" and killing it. With London being the busy city that it is, crowds of onlookers still stopped and gathered to watch the impressive performance. Perhaps Big Hit Entertainment CEO Bang Si Hyuk would watch the video and have BTS stop by London as one of the group's world tour destinations.
It is truly heartening when fans would take the time to do something special for their idols. In other news, BTS was recently reported to have topped the Korea Institute of Corporate Reputation's list of boy group brand value for the month of January, as reported by Allkpop. The gathered data lists BTS with 8,895,084 followed by EXO with 5,640,921 and SEVENTEEN with 4,012,074.
