[talk] UN Speech: A Message of Hope and Courage for Future Generations
BTS is a representative group that positively impacts society beyond music. Their speeches at the United Nations (UN) in particular resonated deeply with young people around the world, delivering messages of hope and courage. Leader RM has twice stood on the podium at the UN General Assembly, in 2018 and 2021, expanding on the message of the "LOVE YOURSELF" campaign and delivering a powerful message about loving yourself and making your voice heard.
Through the message "Life Goes On," they offered comfort to young people around the world, weary from the COVID-19 pandemic, that life goes on. They encouraged them to "tell their stories" and "move toward their dreams." As one of the most influential groups among teenagers and people in their twenties around the world, BTS's presence at the UN, a prestigious forum, served as a great inspiration and motivation to the younger generation. Their positive influence transcends mere fandom, demonstrating their power to bring about positive change in society worldwide.
