On May 25 (кσяєαn time), BTS once again set Allegiant Stadium in the United States ablaze with the second night of their four-day concert series, BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG'. The sea of 60,000 fans chanting and singing along to every song for more than two hours was so loud that it shook the entire stadium. The electrifying atmosphere once again proved that Las Vegas’ love for BTS remains unchanged even after four years.
Meanwhile, among the mαѕѕive crowd were also several famous artists who came to support the group. During the first night of the concert, world-renowned DJ Steve Aoki — who previously collaborated with BTS on the remix of MIC Drop — made a surprise appearance in the au∂ιєnce, showcasing the strong friendship between them. On the other hand, during the second night, producer Diplo, who participated in producing the album ARIRANG, also arrived early carrying a banner that read, “Diplo loves BTS!”

Notably, BTS’s junior group under HYBE, KATSEYE, also confirmed that they attended the concert to support their seniors!

Not only did the members enjoy the performance, but they also had the special opportunity to meet and speak directly with BTS backstage after the concert ended. Right after meeting BTS, some members of the group went live to share their genuine feelings about the experience, delighting netizens.
Specifically, during the livestream, Sophia and Yoonchae talked about their first experience meeting BTS backstage. The two revealed that the group was extremely nervous and excited while standing in front of artists they deeply admire. Yoonchae even burst into tears after the meet-and-greet because she was so overwhelmed with emotion. The idol shared, “All right, I started crying because we did meet and greet. After that, my brain was blanked.”
Meanwhile, Sophia described the atmosphere while meeting BTS: “We got to do meet & greet before the concert before they got on stage. We got to meet all the members, and they were all so down to earth. They were so kind.” Sophia also revealed that she kept talking nonstop because she was too excited: “I was being a yappetron again. I was like yapping. But in a good way.”

However, what made Sophia laugh the most was Yoonchae’s reaction. She explained, “I looked to my right and Yoonchae wasn’t speaking. She was trying to compose herself, and then I was like, ‘Yoonchae is кσяєαn, she can speak кσяєαn right?’” Hearing this, Yoonchae admitted that she completely ℓσѕт her composure in front of BTS: “And my heart dropped. I was nervous.”
Not only that, but the female idol also amused fans by revealing that she even forgot how to speak кσяєαn because she was so nervous. “And I was like, I forgot кσяєαn again. When I get nervous, I forget кσяєαn,” she said in a hilariously relatable moment. Sophia also shared BTS’s reaction at the time: “They were like, ‘Are you okay? Are you okay?’”
These sincere and adorable stories quickly spread across social media. Many fans commented that KATSEYE’s reactions were completely relatable, as BTS have long become role models and inspirations for many younger artists. In particular, almost every younger-generation HYBE group looks up to BTS. Despite being top global K-pop superstars, BTS once again showed their humility and friendliness through the warm and approachable way they treated their juniors.
