History[edit]

South Korean boy band BTS

The BTS Meal was first released on May 26, 2021,[3][4] in select countries, including the United States, Austria, the Bahamas, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Indonesia, Israel, Malaysia, Paraguay, the Philippines, and Sint Maarten.[5] By late June, the meal had been released in fifty countries.[6] Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, massive crowds in Indonesia reportedly forced the temporary closure of many outlets,[7] whereas in Singapore, the meal could only be ordered via delivery to prevent crowding at outlets due to the pandemic.[8] Upon its release, the BTS-inspired packaging that the meal is served in was listed for resale on several e-commerce platforms;[1] one Carousell user in Singapore reportedly set an asking price of a few billion dollars.[9] The promotion was discontinued on June 20, 2021.[10]

Reception[edit]

Writing for the Chicago Tribune, Louisa Chu found the dipping sauces "smooth, but unsurprising".[11] Rebecca Alter of Vulture praised McDonald's business acumen, while stating that the collaboration "made me optimistic for the future of musician promos at chains".[12] William Mullally of Esquire Middle East described the Cajun dipping sauce as "the stuff of fast food greatness".[13]

The release reached over a million sales in South Korea alone,[14] arriving at 2021, according to the fast food chain itself, a significant increase in sales of the franchise itself.[15]

The surge in the popularity of the BTS Meal prompted some McDonald's outlets in Indonesia to close down in fear of the COVID-19 pandemic.
