BTS Visits the White House to Discuss Asian Representation and Anti-Asian Hate Crimes
BTS made an important visit to the White House on Tuesday! The K-pop group, which is comprised of RM, V, Jungkook, Jimin, J-Hope, Suga and Jin, took the podium, after a brief introduction by press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, to share the significance of their visit. The «Butter» singers were dressed in black suits as they addressed a room full of reporters — who held up their cellphone cameras as the group walked in. With the help of an interpreter, the GRAMMY-nominated singers gave a brief overview of their appearance -- which fell on the final day of AAPI Heritage Month. “Hi, we’re BTS and it is a great honor to be invited to the White House today to discuss the important issues of anti-Asian hate crimes, Asian inclusion and diversity,” RM said in English.
