During their SOWOOZOO concert, which was a special part of BTS’s 8th anniversary FESTA celebrations, the group performed an unforgettable version of j-hope’s solo track Chicken Noodle Soup featuring American singer and rapper Becky G. This performance was a joyful and energetic highlight, filled with color, movement, and excitement as all seven members of BTS joined in. What made this moment even more special was that the members did not just stick to j-hope’s original parts they also took turns rapping Becky G’s verses, including the Spanish lines. Fans were amazed by how confidently BTS handled the multilingual lyrics, especially RM and Jimin, who took on the Spanish verses with impressive pronunciation and rhythm.
Their charisma and stage presence captured hearts around the world.
The song Chicken Noodle Soup is a remake of a 2006 track by Webstar and Young B, which was a childhood favorite of j-hope. When he released his own version in 2019, he added his unique flair to it and brought in Becky G for a trilingual performance that included Korean, English, and Spanish. The collaboration itself was praised for breaking language barriers and showcasing the diversity and power of global music. Fast forward to 2021 during SOWOOZOO, BTS’s choice to include this song in the setlist was more than just a nod to j-hope’s individual work it was a celebration of unity and shared creativity. Each member took turns performing different parts, demonstrating their support for each other’s solo work while engaging fans with a lively, collaborative performance.
Becky G herself was clearly touched by BTS’s rendition. When a fan posted a video of RM and Jimin confidently singing her Spanish verses, Becky G responded with a heartfelt and excited retweet: “This is EVERYTHING!! 🥺🔥💜.” Her reaction spread quickly through social media, especially among ARMYs who were thrilled to see her acknowledge the performance. Fans praised RM and Jimin not only for their accurate pronunciation but also for the respect and energy they brought to the Spanish verses. Their delivery was not only fun and confident but also full of appreciation for the culture and language, which did not go unnoticed by Spanish-speaking fans around the world. Many international ARMYs commented on how BTS’s performance made them feel seen and included.
