“World Cup Bridge” in Seoul is where BTS chose to showcase their dancing skills on the second day of BTS stint on Jimmy Fallon show. BTS stages are always jaw-droppingly good and always a talking point apart from their perfectly coordinated dance choreography. The World Cup Bridge is planned to cross the Han River in Seoul and connect Mapo District and Yeongdeungpo District. It will open in coming August 2021.

The gigantic bridge was flooded with floodlights that lit up the bridge making it look like a scene from a movie where the superhero jump off a helicopter onto a bridge to save his damsel in distress. BTS’ “Butter” performance was a notch higher as expected and Jin, SUGA, RM, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook delivered in visuals, black and white combinations always looks classy and sexy, and vocals.

BTS’s “Butter” is a vibrant, feel-good track that instantly became a global anthem upon its release on May 21, 2021.

With its addictive beat, smooth vocals, and cheeky lyrics like “smooth like butter, like a criminal undercover,” the song delivers a playful yet polished sound that highlights BTS’s ability to create music that transcends language barriers. The music video further adds to the song’s appeal with slick choreography, bright visuals, and the group’s undeniable charisma on full display.

The release of “Butter” was met with massive commercial success and shattered multiple records. It debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and stayed there for seven consecutive weeks, making it one of BTS’s longest-running No. 1 hits in the U.S. It also broke the record for the biggest YouTube premiere with 3.9 million concurrent viewers and became the most viewed YouTube video within 24 hours with over 108 million views. On Spotify, the song set a new record for the most streams in a single day for a group, cementing BTS’s status as global pop powerhouses.

Beyond its commercial impact, “Butter” was embraced as a symbol of joy and celebration during a time when the world was seeking positivity. From high-energy performances at global award shows to fan-led dance challenges and remixes like the one featuring Megan Thee Stallion, “Butter” became a cultural phenomenon. It captured the essence of summer, fun, and unity, reminding fans why BTS continues to be one of the most influential and beloved acts in music today.
