On the day of the event,he kisses his ticket and throws a finger heart at his wall of posters honoring BTS,while subsequent scenes show him dancing the choreography for "Dynamite" with his Army Bomb lightstick in hand,preparing a BTS-themed cake,and creating a heart-shaped collage of the group members,in anticipation of the concert. Blanco leaves home with the cake and drives to the venue,but accidentally ruins it on the way. [11] He eventually arrives at the stadium only to find it empty. A janitor cleaning the premises then informs him that he has arrived a day early and locks him out. [12]
