CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The wait is over – the BTS Meal has arrived at McDonald’s in the U.S. Wednesday adding a little spice to your order with two new sauces.

The superstar band’s signature order includes a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets, medium fries, medium Coke and for the first time ever in the U.S., Sweet Chili and Cajun dipping sauces inspired by popular recipes from McDonald’s South Korea nationwide.

The collaboration doesn’t stop at food as merch will also be available for purchase.

This head-to-toe collection is inspired by some of the craveable, hand-picked menu items from the BTS Meal, with dynamite threads like hoodies, purple bathrobes, socks and sandals. Whether it’s the McDonald’s fry box logo with seven fries for each BTS member, or the marriage of BTS purple with McDonald’s red and gold, these designs are the perfect representation of an iconic partnership between two fan-favorite brands.

The show-stopping merchandise will be available starting at 7 p.m. Wednesday on the Weverse Shop app.

“Seeing the passion and anticipation from our fans worldwide since we announced the BTS Meal has been incredible,” said Morgan Flatley, Chief Marketing and Digital Customer Experience Officer, McDonald’s USA. “And the best part is, we are just getting started. We are preparing to give customers even more ways to experience this collaboration in the coming weeks – through a merch drop and exclusive digital content that will provide a behind-the-scenes look at BTS.”

Building on the celebrity signature orders McDonald’s released last year, the BTS collab marks the first of its kind to include four straight weeks of dynamic in-app content for customers. In addition, McDonald’s will reveal never-before-seen digital surprises each week featuring the band, viewable exclusively on the McDonald’s app in the U.S. The restaurant chain also unveiled a new eye-catching commercial featuring the band’s new single, “Butter,” on the heels of its chart-topping release last week.

U.S. customers can order the BTS Meal in-restaurant, through contactless mobile order and pay in the McDonald’s app, at the Drive Thru or via McDelivery until June 20, according to a news release. The BTS Meal is scheduled to reach 50 markets globally and customers worldwide will soon be enjoying the artists’ go-to McDonald’s favorites.
