BTS Picnic in the Park, Reminisce About Childhood Lunches & Play Drop the Handkerchief on ‘Run BTS!’ Toronto Episode
The 2.0 version of the fun-filled web series finds the K-pop superstars in a super playful mood.
In a recent episode of their popular variety web series, BTS gathered for a picnic in a Toronto park. The 26-minute episode, which premiered on October 6, showcased the group's lighter side as they enjoyed an al fresco meal and engaged in some playful games. The septet reminisced about a previous Toronto appearance from 2019, where they had fans quiz them on their songs, and tried to recollect the food they had for their own childhood picnics.
They remembered dishes like eggs, soda, and Gimbap, which they preferred from the store over homemade versions. The group then played a game called Drop the Handkerchief, followed by a round of hacky sack (Jegichagi) and an impromptu a cappella performance of the ARIRANG song "Hooligan." During the performance, j-hope unintentionally added some twerking to his routine, causing laughter among the members.
They later played a game of Red Light, Green Light, with V teasing his bandmates about their dance moves. After enjoying a meal of poutine and sushi pizza, the group discussed various topics, including the semiotics of the phrase "let's grab a meal together" and the meaning behind the expression "I'll think about it." They also debated the worst places to get a mosquito bite and whether they would agree to wash a bandmate if he broke his arms and legs.
The episode aired a month after the North American leg of BTS's ARIRANG world tour, with their next South American date scheduled for Wednesday, October 7, at Estadio San Marcos in Lima, Peru. The following episode of Run BTS! is set to drop at 8 p.m. KST on Sunday, October 11.
