The confirmation of BTS’ appearance on “America’s Got Talent” comes on the heels of reports that the group had ruled out media appearances during their time in the US.
Several media outlets including K-pop Herald reported that the septet would only be focusing on its LA shows, citing local reporter George Pennacchio, who said he learned that “BTS had decided to turn down all interview requests.”
Banks is not the only one to have invited BTS to make a TV appearance. James Corden, who presents “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” also pleaded with the group to come on his talk show, on Twitter in August.
