BTS recently flew into Los Angeles on Nov. 14, officially starting a new K-pop wave in the United States. Fans can expect a jam-packed schedule of events and talk shows for the world-famous K-pop group. They recently appeared in the Late Late Show with James Corden and will soon be with Jimmy Kimmel, the American Music Awards and on The Ellen Show.
Earlier this month, there were reports saying BTS would indeed be a guest on the Ellen DeGeneres show. It all started with a request by the LA Kings via tweet tagging the show’s executive producer Andy Lassner if the seven-member group would indeed be a guest. Andy then posted a tweet hinting that it was indeed going to happen. Click here to read the full story.
