During their visit, BTS went to the Met with First Lady Kim Jung Sook and the Minister of Culture, Sports, and Tourism, Hwang Hee to present the museum with a gift from the South Korean government. They gifted the Met a piece by artist Chung Hae Cho to be displayed during an upcoming art exhibition.
