BTS, a popular K-pop group in the Middle East
While the group gave their very first concert in the Middle East, BTS enjoyed considerable popularity and influence in the region thanks to its many hits such as Spring Day and Mic Drop, which were highly appreciated by their Arabic-speaking fans.
In 2016, the group was awarded a star on the Dubai Walk of Fame, after traveling to the region to shoot its summer vlog entitled “Summer Package”.
