You can\u2019t see him, but that doesn\u2019t stop John Cena from being a proud member of the BTS Army. As one of the most widely recognized figures to come out of professional wrestling since The Rock, Cena has made great strides in Hollywood over the past few years. In between numerous movies and holding the record for most Make-A-Wish appearances, he\u2019s also taken time to become a fan of the iconic K-pop group BTS. While appearing on an episode of The Late Late Show with James Corden alongside actress January Jones, Cena was shown a picture that Jones took with BTS backstage at one of their concerts, prompting genuine jealousy and excitement from the wrestler. Jones, however, revealed that she wasn\u2019t a fan and didn\u2019t even know who they were, claiming that she\u2019d asked for a picture because \u201cthey had like 9 million security guards.\u201d Many viewers captured Cena\u2019s shocked and confused expression and shared it on Twitter. james: so you met bts lady: I didn&#8217;t know who they were, they had like 9 million bodyguards so I thought I&#8217;ll take a picture john cena: pic.twitter.com\/hQdYKaKAAr \u2014 koRo\u2077 (@giveittobangtan) January 16, 2020 Jones went on to say that after posting it to Instagram, she received a lot of comments from fans saying, \u201chands off, lady.\u201d But Cena said that Jones was \u201cso lucky\u201d to get a picture with them, and joked that he\u2019d even, \u201ctried out to be their bodyguard.\u201d Corden pressed him to give a legitimate explanation on why he \u201cloved\u201d BTS, and the former WWE champion gave a thoughtful response on why he\u2019s so fond of the group. \u201cThey were the first Korean pop band to actually connect everybody throughout the world,\u201d Cena said. \u201cI began to listen to their music and listen to the message they sent to their fans, and it\u2019s one of self-love and self-reflection and being confident in yourself, even though you may be different.\u201d Cena\u2019s comments begin at 1:28. \u201cSo not only is the choreography and the development of personalities and the entertainment they put on spectacular,\u201d he continued, \u201cyoung people are listening to their music, and they\u2019re sending a good message through their music.\u201d After a resounding round of applause, Cena revealed that as an old-school rapper (a reference to one of his first gimmicks in professional wrestling), he connected with RM and J-Hope as his favorites. Several fans of the group praised Cena\u2019s explanation on social media. https:\/\/twitter.com\/peiskoshobi\/status\/1217813463499710464 https:\/\/twitter.com\/BTSBEINGBTSYT\/status\/1217781728523231233 So far, a collaboration between BTS and Cena has not yet been announced, but fans of both are hoping for the Doctor of Thuganomics to appear on a track on a future album.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>John Cena becomes new BTS Army leader after Corden appearance YouTube: Korea Dispatch \/ WWEProfessional wrestler and Hollywood actor John Cena has taken command Korean pop group BTS\u2019s legion of fans, known as the BTS Army, after appearing on James Corden\u2019s late-night show to talk about his love for the K-pop boy band.
