McDonald’s BTS Meal Sells Out In 5 Minutes

McDonald’s highly-anticipated BTS Meal launches today (June 21) at 11am, and it sold out in five minutes, according to netizens who tried ordering the meal. To prevent massive crowds in these pandemic times (the fast-food chain was forced to close several outlets in Indonesia due to the BTS ARMY queue frenzy), McDonald’s Singapore has made the meal delivery-only. According to Instagrammer @grastyfnf, there were also signs placed at a McDonald’s outlet informing people about the delivery policy.

But it’s not bad luck that your local BTS Meal came without the coveted purple paper bag — according to McDonald’s Singapore, the meal comes with only the BTS logo-fied beverage cup, McNuggets box and a plain brown paper bag, unlike in countries like Indonesia and Malaysia.

In Singapore, the BTS Meal differs from those in other markets. The BTS Meal in Singapore is delivered in a BTS-branded 9-piece Chicken McNuggets box and drink cup – the packaging is available while stocks last. We’d like to assure our customers and BTS fans that The BTS Meal is still available for order via delivery, says a McDonald’s spokesperson.
