As most know by now, Randall Park is a huge hip-hop head. But hes also a K-pop stan.

The Always Be My Maybe star joined The Dave Chang Show and talked about his love for boy band BTS. The actor explained that his wife, fellow actor Jae W. Suh, wanted to see the K-pop act live for her birthday.

And while Park was skeptical of whether hed enjoy the group, he left a show at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California, a full-fledged fan.

Its packed to capacity, Park told host and celebrity restaurateur David Chang of the experience. Kids, adults, people of every race, singing along to these Korean lyrics that I ... couldnt understand what they were saying and going crazy.

It was like the Beatles, he added. To see that, and the music was so good and they were so charming and likable and so positive. I was intoxicated by it all but it also made me feel really good about the future.

While its still rare to see Asian artists commanding arenas and stadiums, BTS had the ability to bring fans together who didnt care that the artists are Korean, Park explained to Chang.

Were just at a period where people are excited for something different, he said.
