How has it been since you heard this news?
(BTS cheering)
- Look at that!
(J-hope yelling) - Look at that!
- [RM] This is my tombstone! This is my tombstone!
We're taking it to this grave, man!
(Tetris laughs)
- RM, man! You guys are so hype!
How are you feeling about this?
- You just said it, it's unbelievable.
Dream come true, more than anything!
We're just, like, so happy.
- I am happy for you guys,
and, of course, you know,
the song is crazy.
Take me back to the recording process.
Like, when you were making "Dynamite," what-
Tell me a fun memory. How was it in the studio?
- So it's basically like a,
like a dance song, it was disco-pop.
So, like, everyone is like,
like singing, recording,
and dancing at the same time,
like-
♪ This is getting heavy ♪
(indistinct singing)
Just, just can't hold my-
Just can't hold my body, yeah.
- No, and I love that. And I love the disco in "Dynamite."
I love the sound that you guys did,
but I've heard fans are, like,
asking for some different genres.
I heard they want a R&B album.
What is the next album gonna sound like?
What are you guys working on?
(Jimin speaking in Korean)
- [Jungkook] Yeah!
(Jimin speaking in Korean)
- Just can't wait!
- Oh, the ARMY cannot wait for this album!
The ARMY is about to lose it!
And, I mean,
after you guys have now got your first number one,
it's the first number one for a Korean group ever.
How are you going to top it?
Are you nervous about
if it's gonna be bigger than "Dynamite?"
- What does everyone-
(Jin speaking in Korean)
- We're more, like,
like, down to earth people.
So, like, we just like
trying to stuck our feet on the ground.
Like, "Yo, let's keep it calm."
It's nothing, let's just keep it calm.
- I love that. BTS, humble kings.
And also, I heard that Jungkook had a birthday.
Happy birthday! How did you celebrate?
- [Jin and J-Hope] Happy birthday, bro!
(BTS clapping)
- How did you celebrate, my friend?
(Jungkook speaking in Korean)
(RM speaking in Korean)
(V speaking in Korean)
(Jungkook speaking in Korean)
(Suga speaking in Korean)
- Champagne!
(Jungkook speaking in Korean)
(V speaking in Korean)
(Jungkook speaking in Korean)
(V speaking in Korean)
(Jin speaking in Korean)
- Jin!
(V speaking in Korean)
- Well, what an amazing birthday gift.
I'm mad I missed out on the champagne,
but next time I will join you guys.
- Please!
- Now, let's talk about the VMAs.
Your performance was crazy.
I felt like I was watching
seven Michael Jacksons at the same time.
Like, how was it to perform virtually?
(Suga speaking in Korean)
- Dynamite!
- It was dynamite! We'll just say that.
I loved the performance, guys.
It was great.
And, I gotta say, your style- Your guys' style is crazy.
I wish I could dress like you. It's so cool.
Do you guys ever compete over who is the most stylish?
- You know what, we love your hat,
and second,
we have a nice stylist.
So that's why.
- No, you gotta give credit to the stylist, as always!
I can't believe RM said my hat is cool, so,
I'll wear this hat a lot now.
Thanks, fellas.
And, also,
you know, the fans loved CONNECT, BTS.
That's something that they really-
That really spoke to the ARMY,
so would you ever do something like CONNECT, BTS again?
(Suga speaking in Korean)
(RM speaking in Korean)
(Suga speaking in Korean)
- No, and that's actually a great answer,
because that leads me to what I was gonna ask you,
which is, we are in this crazy global pandemic.
Everybody's going through it at the same time.
But, when it's all over, what are you most excited to do?
- Tour!
- Tour! - Concert!
- Definitely!
Rose Bowl, MetLife!
- [Jimin] Please!
- Seoul!
Chicago, anywhere!
- I will say, I saw you guys at the Staples Center.
It was one of the craziest nights ever.
Being there, the ARMY's energy is out of control.
So I, too, can't wait to see you guys back on tour.
It was really great talking to you.
- Yeah!
- Hope to see you in LA too.
- I will see you guys in LA, and I have the champagne.
Thanks, guys!
- [BTS] Thanks!
- Thank you!
- Stay safe!
