All seven members of BTS are set to join the Season 29 finale of Hot Ones, where RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook will challenge themselves against the show's notoriously spicy chicken wings.

The highly-awaited special appearance is a rare instance of all members being present during an interview program. During a teaser clip released Sunday, Apr. 6, host Sean Evans shared:

"This week's guest, on the season finale of Hot Ones, they flew all the way across the world to be here at this table. It's the largest one the studio has ever seen. We got seven chairs, seven sets of wings."

Evans went ahead to quote BTS's popular songs in his last statement:

"We're gonna be dynamite. It's gonna be dynamite. It's gonna be like butter."

Next, the camera panned to the rear side of the seven chairs, with each having a white paper that had names of all the members.

As per the information given by First We Feast, there will be a total of 70 wings served in the show, and it is assumed that this might be the largest Hot Ones table created yet.

The upcoming episode will be aired on Apr. 9, 2021, at 11 a.m. Eastern Time. This will mark the conclusion of Season 29 of the show.

While Hot Ones is well-known for its interview series with rising temperature levels from spicy sauces, viewers are excited to see how the seven stars fare when faced with a relatively easier task as they promote their latest music album release.
