This follows the 2021 collaboration when McDonald’s launched the BTS Meal. It included 10 Chicken McNuggets, medium fries, a medium Coke, and two sauces (Sweet Chili and Cajun) based on flavors from McDonald’s South Korea.

The upcoming release continues that tie-up, this time adding collectible toys alongside the classic Happy Meal menu. Here’s everything we know about the collaboration and what the Happy Meal is bringing to the table this time.

Two toy sets are part of the rollout. The “Throwback Edition” opens the promotion on September 3, followed by the “Encore Edition” on September 23. Both showcase the seven TinyTAN figures styled after Bangtan Boys. Los Angeles will host a "Magic Meetup" event in conjunction with the launch in Nya West.

On September 27–28, fans can step into an “immersive, multisensory experience, filled with music and Happy Meal magic.” For those not in L.A., a digital option is included. By scanning a code on the Happy Meal box, customers can access a rhythm-based game tied to the characters.
