Unlike most, I know very little about the group, so this actually appeals to me. It would be nice to know what all the fuss is about. I have enjoyed the music form BTS that I have heard though. They join Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, The Beatles, Elton John, and more that have partnered up for specials with Disney since the launch of Disney+ a couple years ago as well, as they have quickly become one of the go to streaming services for these types of things.
