[Sports & Entertainment] Record-breaking Semifinals Completed… BTS Ahead of World Cup Stage / YonhapnewsTV

It's time for Sports & Entertainment. I was so happy to see news about BTS while reporting on the semifinals! Haha.

A story about the 2026 CONCACAF World Cup ahead of the semi-finals. Besides soccer, there are other things to see in this final, aren't there? There are many things being attempted for the first time in this World Cup. For the first time in World Cup history, a show is being held during halftime after the first half, and I'm sure you've all heard the news that BTS will be performing. lol

The halftime show is typically held at the Super Bowl, the championship game of American professional football, but it has been introduced to the World Cup final for the first time. Running for a total of 11 minutes, the show features a star-studded lineup of headliners, including K-pop representatives BTS, as well as Madonna, Shakira, and Justin Bieber.

BTS seems to have a deep connection with soccer these days, so they are worth paying more attention to. This is because the venues for the ongoing Arirang World Tour are often football stadiums, haha. Last weekend, they performed at the Allianz Arena, the home ground of Bayern Munich in the German Bundesliga. V went on stage fully decked out in a Munich uniform and even held a football, driving the German fans wild. After all, Bayern Munich is the team where Kim Min-jae, the "iron pillar" of our national team, plays. Kim Min-jae even personally stepped up to promote the BTS concert through the club's official social media. It was a pleasant surprise to see that before and after the concert, there were more updates about BTS on the club's social media than about the players. I look forward to hearing more BTS news from the world of football in the future, haha.
