To the viewers, don't automatically make assumptions about these guys, their success is well deserved for all the crap they have had to put up with from every direction, up until this day. I know you won't, but if you would actually take the time to read about these guys you would automatically respect them or have an appreciation towards them wanting to make this world a better place. By all means don't listen to their music if you don't want to, just treat people with respect. Also, for those that try to categorize these seven Asian artists into various labels that don't have anything to do with them whatsoever, we automatically know that you just hopped onto one of the many hate trains in society. Believe my words when I say if you even knew what half of what these guys have done and how many lives they've improved and saved, you wouldn't be talking all that nonsense. So, I hope you think twice before posting malicious statements or comments and misleading information about these guys, their company and their fans (Army) are fed up with the bs, so they take legal actions against perpetrators and can get sued, and yes plenty of people have been sued before as this practice has been in place since 2016. Us Army's are mostly calm and mind our own business unless provoked, so just a heads up before you even start thinking about posting your ignorance out to the world for everyone to see.

"Not necessarily a gambling demographic" LOL. That man is obviously not aware most BTS fans are older than 25 and go well into their 60's and 70's.

With 46% of BTS’ fan base over the age of 35….its about to go down! Vegas any ready…💜

I can't even express how proud I am

Aaah I'm so jealous of all the army's going to experience all this fun.. But also so happy for them... BORAHAE 💜

BTS is not your typical boyband. Their fans (ARMY) are mostly working adults. That's how their stadium shows sold out within minutes or hours...not even a full day. ARMY attending BTS concert in Vegas will be spending thousands per person so the economic effect for Vegas will be tremendous 😉

Bruh, BTS is not just kpop. BTS songs doesn’t sound like typical kpop songs. BTS is Global band

So excited, our family will be there next weekend! 💜

The reporter did his segment so well! 💜💜💜

fun fact, the 4.9 billion figure is from 2019 and for 2023 it's predicted that bts contributes 50 billion (!) dollar to the South Korean economy. just to give you an idea how big they are, they are bigger than all of the Korean music industry combined. and for good reason too. they are amazing people and once in a lifetime artists

K-pop stars??how about global superstars.

They are not just a “popular K-pop group”They are the worlds biggest global super star boy band since the Beatles !!!! Get it straight !!!

The first show is Friday 8th and the second show is Saturday 9th have fun ARMY 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Great job reporting about BTS. Enjoyed the Reporter’s segment, the the first show is today, Friday, April 8th. So happy for ARMY, enjoy the Concert!!!!

While I’m wistful that I can’t go, I’m so happy for fellow ARMY as well as our guys, who’ve journeyed a long way to get to this point. Wish everyone an amazing time!

Whatever these guys touch it turns to gold...

Thank you Army’s for supporting our Boys! Love you Army’s..i purple you BTS!

Just so you know most of us are too old to be called "girls".

BTS global super star 💜💜💜💜

I arrived from West Africa just to see BTS💜💜💜💜

KTNV - good reporting. So appreciate your coverage of BTS’s first time in Las Vegas. I hope BTS will return to Vegas, as it is such a fun city, and gives a fun festival like location for BTS to perform. THIS IS GOING TO BE EPIC!

Great report. Really enjoyed the segment. Loved the shout-out to Dynamite💜 "Not a gambling demographic"? As others have pointed out, ARMY is older than most people realize, and that comes with more disposable income. We also often travel with the whole family or with groups of friends, and that's travel from around the globe, to go to concerts or big events. As you reported, many will be going to all four shows, which means over a week of staying in hotels, motels, and airbnb. Rental cars, uber, public transit, and restaurants will certainly benefit. Things to do between concerts will be explored, and casinos and shows might very well be on the itinerary of ARMY and their travel companions. Previously, a 3 concert weekend boosted the venue city's economy roughly equivalent to hosting the Olympics. My only complaint is the "who's your favorite member" question. I hope further segments interview and focus on the diversity of ages, ethnicities, genders, and how far people have come. Asking the question "How has the group impacted your life?" Would be more interesting as well, rather than "who's your favorite?". After all, WHY are all these people from all over, from so many different backgrounds and occupations, willing to travel so far and spend so much time and money on this group that mostly doesn't speak or sing in English? You could also ask about the fan culture and what people were most excited to see beyond the concert/group itself. (I give these suggestions because you DID have a great report, lol. ARMY will be in town for the whole week with 2 weekends, so there's plenty of opportunity for some really great reports.)

I remember when they were just seven starving boys in one room. with dreams and hope. People disrespected them, mocked them While their record label were about to go bankrupt. Look at them now💜

First show is tomorrow (Friday) night, not Saturday

Permission to spend 😂 well yeah i can say thats true. Im kinda stingy w my expenses but i do splurge for BTS esp for special occasion like now 😍💜

Wow amazing. Wanna go to LV

Thank you for the coverage for those ARMY that cant be with them right now! Love from the UK! Borahae! 💜 💜 💜 💜

"I'm a j-hope bias" 💜

Our Global Star *B T S* & their Army's invaded Las Vegas! right is like The Beatles [Brittish] years before. BTS fans/armies from all over the World surely comes for their Iconic SuperStar BTS, where ever BTS go for concert!!!

Thank you for your coverage of BTS. The reporter did a good job. We are for BTS, and yes been spending money since we got here😎

Four SOLD OUT shows!

Oops ! First concert is not Saturday, but Friday April 8th :P other than that though, this was really well researched & presented..and best of all, respectful of both the group & the fans using actual facts !

I was last weekend for the first time at a BTS concert and it was amazing. I'm from Germany and ir was definitely worth it to come. You mustn't spend much money to enjoy the concert. If you only buy a ticket from the higher seat and didn't buy any merch so you can have a great time without spending a lot of money. And the show, the performances , the atmosphere and the people there are incredible 🥰🥰🥰👍

I spent $75 on a Bon Jovi T-shirt in Raleigh in 2013... I've also spent $45 on t-shirts at almost every other concert I've been to. Also... "Gambling Demographic"?... 75% of BTS Army is over 21.

i love how he even promote Dynamite lol

The misconception about the ARMYS age is ridiculous lol 🤣🤣🤣 smh 🤦🏾‍♀️

Kpop invasion NO it is BTS invasion

Thank you Vegas for the warm welcome and being so patient and lovely to us ARMYs!! 💜💜💜💜💜

It was funny how easy it was to spot one of us anywhere 🤣. I saw a girl traveling alone. She wore purple joggers and carrying RJ. We bonded during the 15 min delay. Then we found more 🙌 during boarding 😆

💜💜💜BTS!!!💜💜💜

I purple you

BTS💜

The Army is coming

j-hooooooope! The stage king descended in Vegas!

💜💜💜💜👏👏👏

The 1st show is Friday night.

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

ahhhhh alexa play jealousy, jealousy

My loves

Overall an enjoyable segment, but was "who's your favorite member?" really the most interesting question they could come up with? I know it's a short segment and they don't have time for super deep questions, but that just seems like a particularly boring and shallow one to me... and such a stereotypical "boy band" question too.

Wow, I had forgotten that it is illegal for a S. Korean to gamble, even out of country (if I'm not mistaken). Please correct me if I'm wrong. I wonder if the casinos knew that, lol.

How much money does this band bring in? Crazy

Please stop referring to them as Kpop they are not. They are just 7 artists with extreme diversive music. NOT JUST POP. SO PLEASE STOPPPPPPP

This is not your grandma's Beatles.

Please stop say K-pop group the are not that anymoore, the have there own genre now, the are the biggest group in the world

who?

Great just what Vegas needs more Asians gosh

I dont understand the asian fetish

🤮🤮🤮🤮 Glad I'm not in Vegas right now.

HA GAY 😂

🤮🤮🤮🤮

BTS💜ARMY💪🏼🥰💥

Borahae....💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

💜💜💜💜 BORAHAE

Have no idea how my cousin got her tickets.

"It may not be a gambling demographic." What bull boomer speak. I am a 30 year old male. Who is this guy?
