ESPN Writer Joon Lee Sports His ARMY Pride At Work
BTS‘s PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE concerts in Los Angeles, California, at SoFi Stadium were jam-packed with ARMY as the stadium has a capacity of 70,000+. L.A. has a reputation for being a city filled with celebrities, so of course, when the hottest boy band comes to town, all the stars are guaranteed to be out that night!
One of the many celebrities attending PTDLA was ESPN writer and host Joon Lee. After their first week of shows, he shared some photos on his social media and perfectly communicated every ARMYs’ feelings following a BTS concert.

It’s been over a week now, and we’re still not over PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE. Neither is Joon Lee! So, like all of us, after attending one of the best concerts of our lives, we got to let everyone know we went by going to work or school wearing some merch from it.

ARMYs were shook when watching ESPN talk show Around The Horn and noticed a familiar-looking shirt being worn by Joon Lee. He was wearing the official concert long-sleeve T-shirt with the group on it!

He quote tweeted the fellow ARMY’s post, saying that he was so proud of it! He had survived that crazy long merch line after all.

This wouldn’t be the first time Joon Lee showcased his ARMY pride at work. Also, on Around The Horn, he powerfully shared about the legacy and impact of BTS.
what I said at the end of the video still stands: if there’s an editor out there interested in a story on the cultural impact and legacy of BTS from a Korean-American perspective, let me know 🇰🇷

If you follow Joon Lee on any social media platform, whether it’s Twitter, Instagram, or TikTok, you know that, yeah, he posts a lot of sports content. Still, he regularly posts about BTS as a true ARMY.
