Afternoona Army: Thinky and Thirsty BTS Takes

BTS Arirang World Tour is officially here! BTS kicked off the Arirang World Tour last night in Goyang, South Korea, and from the opening number it was clear: this comeback is everything ARMY has been waiting for (and yes, water is wet — boy was there water). BTS also stopped by Hot Ones to take on the wings of death, and let's be real… did the final two standing surprise anyone? After years of a trickle, BTS content is straight-up Niagara Popo right now. It's good to be ARMY, y'all.
