Updated: ARMY! You Can Get a ~FREE~ Upsize on the BTS Meal Just By Flexing Your Merch
Jun 17, 2021 • Kyzia Maramara
Filipino ARMYs, rejoice! The BTS x McDonald’s Meal has finally landed on our shores. It will be available in McDonald’s stores nationwide for dine-in, take-out, and drive-thru starting Friday, June 18. The collab with the septet (RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook) was first announced in mid-April with a “menu tour” that gradually became available globally in 50 countries. Since the BTS Meal comes a few days after the global pop icons’ 8th anniversary, feel free to dub this as the *unofficial* post-BTS Festa meal (I know I will).
But aside from the regular order, did you know you could also get discounts on the meal and delivery fees plus a free upsize? Check out how!

What should you expect to get from this highly-anticipated collab? None other than the supergroup’s signature order, of course. For Php 260, the BTS Meal includes medium World Famous Fries, medium Coca-Cola, and the main star, 10-piece Chicken McNuggets with Sweet Chili and Cajun dipping sauces inspired by popular recipes from McDonald’s South Korea. And if you’re wondering, yes, you’ll get all that goodness in one BTS x McDonald’s packaging!

We’re sure you’ve seen videos of McDonald’s stores in other countries where counters were crowded with delivery riders ordering the meal. Well, McDonald’s Philippines made sure that breach of health protocols in the middle of a pandemic won’t be happening here. Here are some measures local McDonald’s stores will be implementing to make sure everything is in order:
- No masks and face shields, no entry
- Filling out health declaration forms is required
- There will be a queuing system with strict social distancing measures
- Marshalls will be assigned to direct smooth flow for drive-thru and delivery options
In addition to these measures, McDo Philippines has also reached out to local government units and barangays for aid on crowd control and facilitating traffic. You don’t need to worry about the influx of people, McDonald’s comes prepared!
BTS paints the town purple
Days leading up to the BTS Meal launch has been nothing short of exciting. For starters, McDonald’s started an internal contest for McDonald’s employees to show off their love and excitement for the collab through a TikTok dance challenge. You can watch the crew’s amazing dance moves through the hashtags #McDoCrewDanceChallenge and #McDoIPurpleYou on TikTok.
Borahae to all the frontliners who continue to light up our world! 💜 pic.twitter.com/D58U6X6F9J

To kick off the launch, on June 16, McDonald’s gave a first taste of the much-awaited offering to healthcare workers. Through McDonald’s Kindness Kitchen, over 2,000 BTS Meals were distributed to select hospitals and vaccination hubs. Customers, on the other hand, also got the opportunity to secure limited slots from the McDonald’s App to purchase the BTS Meal, a day ahead of the official launch.

It’s going to be a BTS world for us for the next couple of weeks (yay!) as McDonald’s stores get decked in purple. Purple balloons, shiny purple streamers, and even glowing in purple LED lights at night. Starting June 21, some stores will be putting up a mini BTS x McDo photo booth so you get to enjoy your experience better.
