BTS, named by CNN as “the biggest boy band in the world” in 2019, is one of the most

sought-after celebrities today. According to industry sources, the remuneration for


inviting a boy group ranges from 3 billion won ($2.69 million) to 5 billion won ($4.48
million). McDonald’s ads target about 50 countries around the world, and BTS is
expected to receive about 10 billion won for participating in the US fast food franchise
promotion.Before that, BTS also caused a fever when with just a short performance at
the ‘Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve 2020′ event, they were paid $ 1 million in
remuneration which is equal to the remuneration of a top star like Mariah Carey.

BTS’ collaboration with the burger brand seems to be showing an υиєχρє¢тє∂ effect
given the boy group’s solid fan base around the world. In addition, this cooperation is
expected to be a big plus for the McDonald’s brand image, which has been tarnished by
quality issues.

McDonald’s short-term goal is to promote the brand image and attract 34 million fans of
the boy band. “We are delighted to introduce McDonald’s new menu item in
collaboration with BTS, who are big fans of our food. We hope this collaboration gives
us an opportunity to connect to BTS’s fans” the McDonald’s official said. For this
reason, McDonald’s has put a lot of effort into the menu collaboration with BTS, and the
initial response seems to be positive.

McDonald’s made an unprecedented move to connect directly with customers, by


announcing their collaboration with BTS via social media channels on April 19. Prior to
that, the restaurant chain αmєrícαn fast food has released a press kit to make the
announcement. McDonald’s previously teamed up with former basketball player Michael
Jordan and famed rapper Travis Scott to introduce special burgers, but they’re only
available in the United States.

The way the αmєrícαn fast food chain presents their collaboration with BTS is similar to
how the boy band releases its music. From May 17 to 23, McDonald’s released concept
photos of each BTS member and revealed its promotional video three days later. BTS’s
fan club ARMY praised McDonald’s fresh marketing plan and said they were waiting for
a new breakthrough.

Additionally, the partnership also aims to highlight McDonald’s commitment to


embracing kσrєαn culture as McDonald’s employees worldwide are wearing T-shirts
with BTS’s name in kσrєαn. BTS’s meal features “sweet chili” and “cajun” sauces
written in kσrєαn, and the food comes packaged in a purple package, which is the boy
band’s official favorite color.

We feel proud to see foreign employees wearing T-shirts with kσrєαn words on them.
We are also proud that BTS is made up of kσrєαn singers. Also, the world is finding
kσrєαn culture and kσrєαn language interesting affected by BTS music” said a BTS’s
fan.
