“I watched it three times. And I cried a lot,” RM said about the film that won two Oscars at the 2018 ceremony, including an animated feature and original song for “Remember Me”.

V praised Pixar Animation Studios, the banner behind the film, for its filmography.

j-Hope said he is a fan of Disney Studio films.

“Disney movies stimulate emotions well,” Jin further said.

When j-Hope called “Aladdin” his go-to musical film, RM gave a shout-out to Hollywood star Will Smith who starred as Genie in the 2019 live-action adaptation of Disney’s 1992 animated film of the same name.

Smith is nominated for the best actor Oscar at this year’s ceremony, which is being held at the Dolby Theatre here.

BTS’ appearance came after Disney bagged a number of Oscars: live-action take of “Cruella” took home costume design trophy for veteran designer Jenny Beaven and “Encanto” won best animated feature.
