John Cena and BTS
John Cena revealed his admiration for the group BTS during his appearance on James Corden’s ‘The Late Late Show’ in January of this year. The presenter showed a photograph of actress January Jones, who accompanied Cena in the interview, with the K-Pop group BTS and she explained that she had no idea who they were until she posted the image on Instagram. John Cena addressed them in a very different way and confessed to being a fan of BTS.
As a result of these statements, John Cena became a world trend and also in some countries, such as Spain. BTS fans, and specifically those who are part of ARMY, showed their support for John Cena for his words.
