Korea's biggest boy band's quest for worldwide domination is on...

The BTS takeover continues.

You will definitely have seen or heard of BTS by now, the Korean superstar groupwhose electro-pop music is crossing over to English audiences, and they have just released their first potential international smash hit.

The K-Pop kings have a droppeda Steve Aoki remix of their song'MIC Drop' featuring U.S. rapper Desiigner with a fiery visual to match.

The massive remix is a high-octane banger that switches the original song's pre-chorus, chorus and RM's verse to English, making it more accessible to Western audiences, while Desiigner adds hisswagwith an insane verse of his own.

BTS have already broke into the chartsin the UK and USwith their Korean-language releases, making history on both sides of the pond,so this could be absolutely huge.

They made UK chart history when their second albumWings debuted on theOfficial Albums Chartlast year, while their most recentEP'Love Yourself: Her'reachedNumber 14 (!) this September.

'Love Yourself: Her'is now the highest-charting Korean album of all time in the UK 'and'the USas it reached the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 at Number 7, outpeaking its UK position.

The new remix of 'MIC Drop' came about after BTS met Desiigner at the Billboard Music Awards earlier this year, with the 'Panda' rapper telling Billboard “It was just genuine vibes. We connected.”

“I add that extra energy to it,” he said of his verse on the remix. “Add that spice. That turned-up spice. All that extra."

Desiigner's verse is ommitted from the video as he doesn't appear but BTS make up for his absence, putting on an incredible performance withkiller choreography and multiple different sets.

After performing 'DNA' at the American Music Awards last week, their worldwide takeover will continue this week with appearances on The Ellen Show and late-night chat shows in the U.S. so perhaps we'll be treated to a performance.

We are absolutelyobsessed with the'MIC Drop' remix. It's BTS time!
