Korean pop supergroup BTS is set to meet President Joe Biden on Tuesday to address anti-Asian hate crimes and disinformation.
The Grammy-nominated boyband's visit comes days after Biden returned from his first trip to Asia as president, which included a three-day stop in Seoul and meetings with newly-elected South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol.
Last year, amid a spate of anti-Asian hate crimes in the US, including shootings at three Atlanta-area spas, BTS spoke out about their own experience with discrimination. They continued,"We cannot put into words the pain of becoming the subject of hatred and violence for such a reason."
