BTS Week on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon Crescendoes in a Retro Performance of "Dynamite"

And just like that, BTS Week has come to a conclusion. You know what they say: "Time flies when you're having fun!"

BTS and the Rollerskating Rink

The BTS Week saga on the popular American variety show has culminated in a charmingly old school performance of "Dynamite". The week of Bangtan kicked off with an a capella version of their Billboard hit song and has come to a beautiful close with an encore of the track. Bringing back "Idol", "Home", "Black Swan", and "Mikrokosmos", BTS truly took fans on a nostalgic trip down memory lane.


Leading audiences into the rabbit hole of everything retro, BTS induced colorful chaos in an '80s inspired roller skating rink. Complete with an ice cream bar, neon lights, and a flock of disco balls, "Dynamite" has found its perfect backdrop.

The finale of #BTSWeek depicted Jin, RM, Suga, V, Jungkook, Jimin, and V in their signature bell bottom jeans and color pop shirts. The Korean ensemble sang their hearts out an danced in true disco style, but the real treat was when the song ended, and they rolled around the indoor rink in skates! With five of the boys gliding and twirling around like pro ballerinas on wheels, it was an endearing sight to see V and J-Hope struggling to maintain their balance. While they may have wobbled and tumbled to the floor, it was evident that they could count on their group mates to keep them on their feet (or pick them right back up in Jungkook's and V's case).

No Blood, Sweat, and Tears?

While many ARMYs were literally attempting to manifest a comeback performance of "Blood, Sweat, and Tears", it was a pleasant surprise to see the boys cap off BTS Week with melodic optimism and uplifting visuals. After losing ourselves in a vortex of pure BTS throwback content these past five days, we have once again been zapped back to the present courtesy of "Dynamite"; and the present is a time and place for celebration. That's what the group aimed to remind us of this song. Pandemic or no pandemic, we're diamonds, we glow up, and life is dynamite.

Jimmy Fallon Thanks BTS and ARMY

With heartwarming closing remarks, Jimmy Fallon (or Chimmy Fallon, as he now refers to himself as) thanked BTS and ARMY alike for their stellar support. Also, is he implying that there will be a #BTSMonth? Again, only time will tell. Get tweeting everyone, and manifest this to life!
