Rumor became reality when BTS’ debut appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show aired Monday following their performance of “DNA” at the American Music Awards on Nov. 19.
The septet’s performance of their “MIC Drop” remix with Steve Aoki and Desiigner glued ARMYs to their TV screens, but it was their interview segment with the high-profile host provided fans with endless social-media fodder.
As we recover from BTS’ whirlwind tour of American media, here are some of the best Twitter reactions to their meeting with Ellen.
On a scale of Yoongi to Agust D, Suga confronted all of us with his tongue technology:
THEY ALL WENT SO HARD—- N YOONGI WENT FULL AGUST D #BTSxELLEN pic.twitter.com/Fa6EsGOoju
