According to NPR spokesperson Isabel Lara, the NPR Music YouTube channel got 100, 000 new subscribers, after the performance.

BTS’ ARMY who have had a lot of charitable donations and projects decided to take it upon themselves to donate to their local stations after Gabe Rosenberg, the digital news editor for Columbus, Ohio encouraged the fans to donate to public radio stations to say thank you for hosting BTS. ARMY began sending screen shots of their donations tagging Gabe on his Twitter message. The donations are said to go into assisting during this Covid 19 pandemic.

This is not something new to ARMY who have always engaged in charitable works all over the world. ARMY raised more than $1 million for Black Lives Matter after BTS donated $1 million to the cause. Causes are not the only way that ARMY has shown its charitable works, during each of the BTS’ members’ birthdays, there are always projects started under the name of the member celebrating his birthday.
