BTS is the top band in the world. So, it’s only fitting that they work with only the most successful global brands.
The group has worked with many brands. Yet, out of the top 10 brands in the world, BTS have worked with 5! Check them out below.
1. Coca-Cola
After ARMYs continually requested, soda company Coca-Cola finally made BTS models for its Russia FIFA World Cup 2018 campaign.
Sorry, our agencies typically hire for us through talent agencies that operate in the area where they are producing the ads.

Since then, the group has appeared in commercials and even on soda cans and bottles.
Coca-Cola is ranked the #6 brand in the world.

3. Samsung
Still, Samsung is one of the biggest partnerships of all for BTS.
Since BTS was announced as Brand Ambassadors for the tech company in 2020, the members have appeared in many commercials and photos advertising Samsung.
In 2020, they even released the BTS Edition of the Samsung Galaxy S20+ and Galaxy Buds+.
Last year, Suga produced a remix of the iconic trademarked sound for Samsung Galaxy smartphones, “Over the Horizon.”
They have even partnered for a global environmental campaign, Galaxy for the Planet.
Samsung is ranked the #8 brand in the world.
4. Louis Vuitton
Last year, BTS were officially announced as the new House Ambassadors of internationally renowned luxury brand Louis Vuitton!

Shortly after, BTS modeled seven designs from the Men’s Fall-Winter 2021 collection by the late Artistic Director Virgil Abloh in a short film by Korean director Jeon Go Woon.
Seoul has such unique energy and BTS embody this vibe completely. They add their spin to the collection, make it their own and take it to new heights.

Additionally, to celebrate the brand’s 200th birthday, BTS participated in a huge project in which artists designed trunks.
They obviously knew what they wanted to express.

Louis Vuitton is ranked the #9 brand in the world.
5. McDonald’s
Perhaps, one of the most iconic partnerships of all is BTS x McDonald’s!
Last summer, BTS and McDonald’s teamed up to create “The BTS Meal” as part of the restaurant’s Famous Orders initiative. Although the packaging varied by location, each meal consisted of a medium Coca-Cola, medium fries, and McNuggets with Sweet Chili and Cajun dipping sauces.
Now, we’re hoping for the return of The BTS Meal!
McDonald’s is ranked #10 brand in the world but is the top fast food chain.
Honorable mention: Google
Last but not least, technically, BTS and Google have not announced an official partnership. Yet, to celebrate the fandom’s 9th birthday this year, they collaborated on a couple of fun features for the site.
