Coldplay’s Chris Martin made a surprise revelation when he said that he was initially hesitant to work with BTS due to language and cultural issues. Martin noted that when someone suggested that the British rock band collaborate with BTS, he was initially hesitant due to the group’s distinct culture and language:
“At first, I judged, as is often my first reaction, to be human.”
He revealed this during The Astronaut performance at the band’s Music of the Spheres World Tour 2022-2023 with BTS Jin in Argentina. However, today he considers himself lucky as an artist and singer of Coldplay when they made the important decision to collaborate with BTS.
BTS followers applaud Chris Martin’s honesty and expressing their own feelings.
Introducing Jin on stage, Chris Martin said that he was initially hesitant to collaborate with the K-pop giants, admitting that the band is closed-minded and shy about collaborating with musicians from outside the background. Their culture is foreign territory to them. But he overcame his prejudices and accepted the opportunity to collaborate with BTS on the deep and relaxing track My Universe, which was released last year. Not only was the song a huge hit on the music charts, but global boy bands became friends through their collaboration, and it was a fun and rewarding working relationship for both sides.
Chris Martin shared what he discovered in the process:
“Instead of being afraid of the other person, accept him.”
BTS fans have praised Chris Martin for his open and honest confession about working with the K-pop group. ARMYs also love how he realizes he was wrong to harbor that bias and how excited and happy they are to be working and hanging out with BTS. During the quarantine, Chris Martin flew to Korea to finish recording for My Universe with the band Bangtan, while also learning some Korean to add lyrics to the song.
ARMYs applaud Chris Martin for maintaining a real working relationship with the BTS members instead of using them for influence and exposure, as many Western musicians have done in the past. Some ARMY members even admitted that they had prejudices against Bangtan members in the past and how they overcame those prejudices to become lifelong fans of the group. Coldplay didn’t hesitate when Jin contacted Chris Martin six months ago to find the best farewell song for ARMY before he enlisted, and My Universe has been well received by fans around the world. extremely warm.
