NPR has never had any difficulty securing popular artists for its marquee video series Tiny Desk Concert, but today’s installment features one of the biggest names in music anywhere: BTS. The K-pop band performed with a band in a Seoul-based record store VINYL & PLASTIC, running through their No. 1 English language single “Dynamite,” as well as “Save ME” and Spring Day.” The performances are playful, and the band does a bit of bantering between each one; before “Spring Day,” RM acknowledges the horrible global state of affairs and offers the song as a salve.
