“Mic Drop (Steve Aoki Remix)” is a remixed version of the song that was originally released in September 2017, off the album “Love Yourself: Her.” The song featuring the popular US DJ peaked at No. 28 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
Comprising seven members, BTS is among the most popular and influential groups in the country. It is also arguably the most successful case of a global fan base being established for a Korean act, with fans from across the world joining forces via social media under the flag of Army.
