WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus shared a tweet on his official Twitter last Saturday, saying, "I hear you and all the other ARMY (BTS' official fan club) saying they want to see more crossovers between public health and BTS. I am delighted to invite BTS to take 'Dynamite' to the next World Health Assembly."

The Director-General also congratulated BTS on grabbing 100 million views on YouTube for 'Dynamite' music video within a day.

Back in March, WHO asked BTS to join the organization's 'Safe Hands Challenge' campaign to raise awareness on proper hand-washing to flatten the curb of COVID-19 cases all across the world.

All BTS members have continuously been sharing their positive impact to make the world a better place, with JIMIN's most recent donation of 100 million won (approximately 84,000 dollars) to provide a better educational environment for students living in Jeollanam-do, South Korea.
