During an episode of The Late Late Show, host James Corden paid tribute to BTS and their fans for coming together to raise $1 million in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. The funding comes after the band announced that they had donated the same amount.
“You may have read this weekend the amazing story that the Korean band BTS donated $1 million to Black Lives Matter,” Corden said. “Knowing BTS, they didn’t just sign a check. I guarantee you there was a three-minute tightly-choreographed dance routine leading up to the signing of that check. But on seeing this news, BTS fans, known as the BTS Army, pledged to match their donation, raising another million dollars in less than 24 hours.”
Corden then showed his thanks by sharing a never-before-seen clip from BTS’ Carpool Karaoke from back in February. Corden led V: The Series, Jungkook, Jimin, RM, Jin, SUGA and J-Hope in a “Baby Shark” sing-along.
