UNITED NATIONS —  Fully vaccinated South Korean band BTS danced its way through the United Nations in a Monday broadcast, promoting global goals tackling poverty, inequality, injustice and climate change ahead of the annual UN gathering of world leaders.

The seven-member group filmed a music video to its song “Permission to Dance” in the world body’s New York headquarters over the weekend, dancing through the General Assembly Hall and out into the gardens. It was broadcast during an event on the Sustainable Development Goals.

BTS — whose members declared they were all fully vaccinated against COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) — also appeared in person at the event in the General Assembly, introduced by South Korean President Moon Jae-in.
