Almost three years ago, BTS and British rock band Coldplay began discussing the possibility of a collaboration. What started as a collaboration has turned into a warm friendship between two world-famous groups.
In 2021, BTS and Coldplay actually released their collaboration song “My Universe” with meaningful melody and lyrics. Overcoming obstacles related to the pandemic and doubts from the public about their collaboration, BTS and Coldplay proved a huge hit and their perfect collaboration.
Coldplay Chris Martin also ever expressed that: "A few years ago, I felt like we had to play a certain kind of music all the time, we had to fit into a box. And, I felt that way about my life also. And I met some good people and read some good books and met some great teachers and they seemed to be happy, and the thing that made them was not having fear of what you don’t know and people you don’t understand yet. You just ask."
The two groups have since formed mutual respect and admiration. They continue showing warm friendships whenever possible. Even Coldplay does not hesitate to help BTS in the music field.
In particular, recently when Coldplay dedicated Jin a song before his enlistment as a touching goodbye to ARMYs. Fans appreciate the respect and care Coldplay has for the partnership, helping Jin show his love and devotion to his precious fans.
Since the release of “The Astronaut”, Jin even went to a concert and performed with Coldplay for the first time during their concert. On the contrary, when receiving Wootteo - the character representing The Astronaut Era from Jin, Coldplay also did not hesitate to show his love for Jin by taking Wootteo to several concerts during their world tour. He also frequently mentions Jin while looking at Wootteo fondly.
Most recently, just hours ago, Coldplay again brought Wootteo on stage as a "special guest" at "the UK's biggest Christmas party", Captial's Jingle Bell Ball 2022 at London's O2 Arena. . This year's all-star lineup includes Coldplay, Lewis Capaldi, Dua Lipa, Stormzy, and more.
With Wootteo by his side, Chris Martin thanked the seven members of BTS while showing the audience 16,000 how to make hearts with their fingers, saying the hand sign means they "love BTS". After that, he also called each member of the group by name one by one and said that they were "half-brothers".
He then grabbed Woodteo and kissed the stuffed animal, placing it closer to the audience. The touching gesture is one of the many ways Coldplay has shown his love for BTS, even from across the globe.
Their friendship is truly precious and worthy of respect!
