BTS and Netflix's collaboration teaser post broke the record for the most likes on Netflix's official Instagram account ever. According to a tally shared by PopCore, an account specializing in pop culture, BTS × Netflix posts recorded 4.55 million (4.55 million) likes, beating Stranger Things (4.54 million, 4.54 million) by about 10,000 cases. The third place is Wednesday (3.9 million·3.9 million). Stranger Things is a flagship series that has represented Netflix for about a decade from 2016 to 2025.

The post is a teaser posted on Netflix's official Instagram on February 2, which foreshadows the free livestream performance "BTS THE COMEBACK LIVE | ARIRANG" at Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul on March 21 and the documentary "BTS: THE RETURN" scheduled to be released on March 27.

X (formerly Twitter) received a variety of responses. BTS Chart Pulse (@btschartpulse), a BTS chart-specialized account, updated real-time likes and broadcasted the moment of the ranking reversal live, and fans cheered by sharing it. Netflix's Instagram likes ranking has become a global topic of mixed K-pop fandom and mid-fandom, with fans of Stranger Things joining and mentioning the ranking of content they support. One user responded, "It's better to have Mileven and Wenclair in the top three," referring to the couple who are the main characters of the strange story.

The record shows global expectations for BTS' return to the full body in numbers. Members RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook will release their fifth studio album "ARIRANG" on March 20 after about four years of military service. Arirang is an album named after Korean traditional folk songs, and contains feelings of separation and reunion. On March 21, the day after the album's release, outdoor performances at Gwanghwamun Square will be broadcast live to 190 countries through Netflix, and director Hamish Hamilton, who directed the Super Bowl halftime show and the Academy Awards, will be in charge of production.

In a recent interview with TMZ in the United States, world-renowned music producer Diplo revealed that he participated in working on the Arirang album, signaling that it is an "album that will surprise the world." He praised Jungkook's vocal, saying, "It's a perfect voice without auto-tune." Pre-orders for the album have already exceeded 4 million copies.
