the UN General Assembly 76th session General Debate in UN General Assembly Hall at the United Nations Headquarters on Monday, September 20, 2021 in New York City. ARMY consists of millions of BTS fans, or should we say stans. And they’ve got a new hashtag, #ARMYvaccinatedtoo, about Covid-19 vaccines. Now any ARMY hashtag is like putting avocado on anything. It’s got a really good chance of being quite formidable.
The hashtag emerged after BTS, the OMG-famous K-pop group, spoke at the United Nations General Assembly today. Yes, it was basically an U.N.-believable appearance. There, BTS member J-Hope said to the Assembly, “Some of you heard the news that we were coming to the U.N. and a lot of you were wondering whether we were vaccinated. And yes, all seven of us, of course, we received COVID-19 vaccination,” as you can see in the video accompanying the following tweet from the U.N.
By “some,” J-Hope may have meant millions, because, after all, it is BTS. This super popular band with a worldwide following appeared in the General Assembly Hall to support the U.N. 2030 goals. If you are not familiar with the U.N.’s, look them up. They’re pretty darn important and include things like ending poverty and hunger, achieving gender equality, reducing inequality, and addressing climate change.
Their appearance at the U.N. is part of BTS’s service as special Presidential envoys from South Korea. At the U.N., South Korean President Moon Jae-in introduced BTS as “exceptionally outstanding group of young men who are connecting with the youth across the world.”
