For 11 years, BTS has been conquering the world with their memorable music and performances. The renowned boy group made their long-awaited debut on June 13, 2013, under BigHit Entertainment (now BigHit Music), with the mini-album “2 Cool 4 Skool”, accompanied by the title track “No More Dream”.

Since then, the group formed by Jin, Sucks, RM, J-Hope, Jimin, V It is Jungkook has grown more and more, achieving unprecedented feats in the world of music, and winning more fans all over the world every day — including even other international stars.

This is because, inside and outside of k-pop, countless artists have already confessed to being fans of the group, including names like Wooyoungfrom ATEEZ, the actor Winston Dukefrom “Black Panther”, Hyeinfrom NewJeans, the star Terry Crewsknown for his role as Julius in “Everybody Hates Chris”, among others.

Additionally, BTS members have already received recognition from other big names in the music industry, such as the legendary singer Diana Rossformer member of The Supremes and a huge success in the 1970s and 1980s, with songs like “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough”, “I’m Coming Out”, “All of You”, “If We Hold on Together”, and many more.

In February of this year, Dianawho is also known for being one of the mentors of Michael Jacksonthe King of Pop, took to his website (via Koreaboo) to share a loving compliment to Jungkookwhere he said:

“I really like his music and videos. [Michael Jackson] “He’s showing all the moves. I just think he’s great! I like the dancers too. All the dancers are fantastic.”

Shortly after the comment, the singer also shared the video for “Standing Next to You”, a track that features choreography with movements clearly inspired by the King of Pop.

It is worth remembering that this was not the first time that BTS was linked to Michael Jackson. In 2023, during an interview with Prince Michaelson of the “Thriller” singer, to the film producer Liam McEwanthe duo commented on the renowned artist’s influences on the South Korean group, with Prince praising the way in which idols “respect and pay homage to the honor and legacy” of Michael.

“Liam: Obviously they’ve been heavily influenced by your dad, like ‘Dynamite’, the choreography was heavily influenced by MJ. One of your recent songs, ‘Butter’, starts with ‘smooth like butter, like a criminal undercover’. You could hear that ‘Smooth Criminal’ reference there (…) How does it feel to see a group as big as them paying homage to your dad in such a cool way, but doing it in their own way? Does that make you emotional?

Prince: Their music kind of transcends culture (…) It’s really interesting to see them, and when I see that level of influence, which came through my father, it’s really cool how they show how they respect and honor my father’s honor and legacy. It’s really gratifying and touching to see that they have so much love and respect for him. […] It’s really cool to see that my dad was a trendsetter and you can see how they’re continuing those trends but also adapting them to the modern era and doing it their own way. It’s really cool to continue that creative flow,” they said.
