A fan of BTS has reimagined scenes from the hit Netflix series Bridgerton with orchestral covers of the K-pop boyband’s songs.
Earlier this month, Netflix released part one of season three of Bridgerton, which is known for its orchestral covers of hit pop songs. This season was no different, with covers of songs by Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Nick Jonas and more.
The second episode of season three notably included the first orchestral cover of a K-pop song, which was the Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping hit ‘Dynamite’ by BTS.
One fan, who goes by the username @onceiwasbeloved on TikTok, has since reimaged several scenes from Bridgerton with orchestral covers of other popular BTS songs, including ‘Black Swan’ and ‘Pied Piper’.
The clips for the two reimaginings have since spread quickly among fans of the series and the boyband, amassing over 300,000 and 1.3million views, respectively at time of writing.

The TikTok user also revisited the previous seasons of the Netflix drama, using orchestral covers of the BTS songs ‘Mikrokosmos’ and ‘Spring Day’ as background music for various dance scenes.
@onceiwasbeloved I know the rhythm of the song doesn’t match the dance but bffr – it’s their song #bridgerton #bts #btsarmy #oiwb #mikrokosmos #oiwb
@onceiwasbeloved I hurt my own feelings with this one #oiwb #bridgerton #bts #btsarmy #springday
In other BTS news, the boyband’s leader RM dropped his second solo album, ‘Right Place, Wrong Person’ last week. The record was led by the single ‘LOST!’, and also features the song ‘Come Back to Me’.
In a glowing five-star review, NME‘s Rhian Daly described ‘Right Place, Wrong Person’ as a “gorgeous, intriguing, artful record” that “rewards repeat and close listens, each track full of little details that elevate each go round”.
