McDonald's Has A New BTS Meal Coming This June And Fans Are So Excited
We know, we know, it's hard to keep calm and carry on.
Was it just two weeks ago when we were so excited about McDonald’s new Taste of Korea burgers? Little did we know that something more exciting was cooking. Announcing McDonald’s new collaboration with BTS, the hugely popular Korean pop band. Together, they are producing what promises to be the most exciting new item on the menu: The BTS Meal.
This one-of-a-kind meal consists of the “superstar band’s signature order” — 10 pieces Chicken McNuggets, medium fries, medium Coke, with sweet chili and Cajun dipping sauces inspired by popular recipes from McDonald’s South Korea.
And just like BTS goes on tour, so will the BTS Meal! The menu will be available in 50 countries including the United States, Canada, and of course South Korea. In the Philippines, the BTS Meal goes on sale starting June 18. For the list of participating countries and the schedule of release, check this out.
Judging by the huge interest in anything to do with BTS, this will be a smash success. “The band has great memories with McDonald’s. We’re excited about this collaboration and can’t wait to share the BTS Meal with the world,” says BIGHIT MUSIC, label of BTS.
Since 2013, BTS has topped music charts and brought people together from all over the world through their music and positive messages. Over the next few months, BTS fans everywhere will find themselves that much closer to their favorite artists... because for the first time since McDonald’s launched its celebrity signature orders program in the U.S. last year, the BTS Meal will be available globally.
“No matter who you are, everyone has a go-to order at McDonald’s — even international superstars like BTS.” said Oliver Rabatan, McDonald’s Philippines Marketing & Channels Head. “This band is truly a global phenomenon with a fanbase that knows no borders, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring the BTS Meal to our customers in the Philippines starting June.”
So mark your calendars for June 18, and be sure to keep an eye out on McDonald’s social channels McDo.ph on Facebook and McDo_PH on Instagram for regular updates on this exciting partnership.
