BTS ARMY was thrilled to see their favourite musicians and expressed their excitement for YouTube Escape 2021.
What is YouTube Escape 2021?
YouTube surely knows how to end a year with a bang. The video-sharing platform is set to say goodbye to 2021 by remembering all the record breakers of the year. The platform is hosting a special live stream interactive event, titled ESCAPE 2021, to recount the year. It will take place from December 16 to 17, 2021. The event is essentially a replacement for YouTube Rewind. The platform used to end the year by releasing a video featuring all viral trends and popular content creators. This year the platform went the extra mile and panned to host a whole event with some interactive sessions with the creators.
