Actress Lili Reinhart, born in 1996, has become well known for her roles in various films and projects, including Chemical Hearts, The Simpsons, Look Both Ways, and more. But for ARMYs, she has made a particularly strong impression and become well known within the community since starring as BTS’ leading lady in the “SWIM” MV — where she delivered an impressive performance, looked breathtaking, and shared adorable interactions with the K-pop superstars.

Lili previously revealed that she received a direct message from BTS’ creative director, who reportedly took notice of the actress after watching Hal & Harper. As a result, Lili flew to Lisbon and spent four days filming with BTS, officially becoming part of the project that marked the group’s return as a full seven-member act.

This has only made ARMYs more curious about Lili’s experience of working with the renowned K-pop stars for the first time, or more specifically, what it was like to interact with them directly throughout the MV shoot. Now, the actress has finally shared her experience in an interview!

In a video that has been drawing attention across social media, Lili Reinhart was asked, “What were BTS like to work with?”. The actress then honestly shared her thoughts as she recalled that time: “It was so cool. I mean it's still such a cool thing to think that I was a part of such a major moment for them to come back. That music video I was just so honored. They were so sweet, kind and focused. And yeah, it was a really lovely time.”

From Lili’s account, BTS left an impression on her not only because of the scale of the project but also because of the way they worked with the people around them. The actress specifically used words like “sweet, kind and focused” to describe the seven members, while calling the time spent filming the MV “a really lovely time.” On top of that, her visibly happy smile as she looked back on the experience made it even easier for fans to feel just how wonderful it was for her to work with BTS.

Notably, this was not the first time Lili had showered BTS with praise. Just one week earlier, when she appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Fallon asked whether she had felt nervous about taking part in such a major project with BTS. Without hesitation, Lili admitted, “It was a little intimidating. I mean, they're the biggest band of all time.”

Lili’s comments about BTS at the time not only immediately received Jimmy’s agreement — “Yes. They really are the most talented guys” — but also sparked a wave of enthusiastic reactions on social media: “The ‘they are the biggest band of all time’ so real” and “The biggest band I know, that’s right queen", "Beautiful woman speaking facts", "BTS you are so loved and respected", "BTS is now a household name, everyone knows they’re the biggest, most influential, an unbelievable level",..

Now, another recent comment from the famous actress has made fans even prouder. It also further highlights the professionalism and admirable character of the BTS members, leaving virtually every artist who has worked with them directly impressed and with nothing but praise for the group.

One notable example is another star whom ARMYs are also hoping to see reunite with BTS soon — Zara Larsson. Although their “A Brand New Day” collaboration dates back to 2019, Zara has continued to speak highly of the group to this day.

In an interview during her Midnight Sun Tour a few months ago, Zara called the experience “a pleasure” and said she would be very happy to have the opportunity to do it again. When asked whether she was a BTS fan, the singer immediately broke into a bright smile and answered, “Yes, yes!” She also revealed that she had watched BTS’ 2026 comeback show on Netflix and really wanted to meet the group again.

These firsthand comments from artists who have worked with BTS have shed light on what the members are really like behind the scenes, and fans have never been hesitant to learn more about their idols’ true personalities — because they already know that BTS are genuinely amazing!
