King Charles also gave a shoutout to BTS!

He compared British pop culture icons to Korean equivalents. So, the James Bond franchise was likened to Netflix series Squid Game, English director Danny Boyle to Korean director Bong Joon Ho, and English rock band The Beatles to K-Pop boy group BTS!

Korea has matched Danny Boyle with Bong Joon Ho, James Bond with Squid Game, and The Beatles’ ‘Let It Be’ with BTS‘s ‘Dynamite!’

Likewise, President Yoon Suk Yeol referenced the United Kingdom’s various icons from music, film, and literature. He acknowledged how both countries appreciate each other’s entertainment. So, again, BTS and BLACKPINK were mentioned.

Back when I was a student, my friends and I were passionate about The Beatles, Queen, and Elton John. Nowadays, Koreans cherish the Harry Potter series. And Korea’s BTS and BLACKPINK are cherished by the people of the United Kingdom, too. ‘My Universe,’ performed by Korea’s BTS and the UK’s Coldplay, received a tremendous amount of love from the young listeners worldwide.

— President Yoon Suk Yeol
