'Art looking at Art', say ARMY as BTS visit the Met Museum in New York. See photos

BTS has had a busy start to the week. After the newly minted special South Korean presidential envoys gave a speech at the UN, setting the world diplomacy stage on fire, K-pop band BTS took some time to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

The Bangtan boys were at the Met Museum with South Korea’s first lady Kim Jung Sook, wife of President Moon Jae In.

BTS leader Kim Nam-joon also gave a speech at the Met, about Korean art and culture. He said, the eyes of the world are on Korean culture—be it Korean dramas, Korean film, or Korean music—but there are many great Korean artists who are yet to be discovered by the world.

In celebration of Korean contemporary art, the K-pop band gifted a set of five colorful lacquerware vessels by famous Korean lacquer artist Chung Haecho, from the South Korean government to the Met.

The collection of the five bowls, titled 'Rhythm of the Five Colour Luster' represent the five elements of East Asian Cosmology.

The BTS Army is swooning over photos of the boys at the Met, where the heartthrobs, even though all masked up, are looking like works of art themselves.
K-pop fans are calling them 'Art looking at Art'.
