While filming reality program American Hustle Life in 2014, BTS’s final mission was to perform a small, free concert in the United States. Jimin, V, and Jungkook were in charge of spreading the word on the street.

V: “Why aren’t the hyungs coming?”

J-Hope: “You need to promote it well so that many people can come.”
