The story of Harrison Cancilla, a 14-year-old American boy suffering from Down syndrome, is touching ARMYs around the world after his family posted it on the fundraising site “Go Fund Me.”
Harrison Kansilla is a big fan of the group BTS. Harrison’s love for BTS was extraordinary, as he listens and dances to BTS’s songs everyday. One day. Harrison heard that BTS was coming to LA, USA to perform. To get tickets to the BTS concert, Harrison saved money by working part-time to clean his neighbor’s house. While cleaning, Harrison proved he was such a passionate ARMY by wearing the “Butter” T-shirt.
In particular, when asked why he wanted a concert ticket, Harrison said, “My favorite.” When asked about his love for BTS, Harrison replied, “Happy,” confessing his special feelings. Harrison also cited J-Hope as the reason for “happiness” among the members.
However, BTS’s LA concert was already sold out as it was the first face-to-face concert since the COVID-19 pandemic. The show’s tickets were even traded illegally at a very high price on ticket resale sites. Harrison’s dream of seeing BTS was on the verge of collapse, but at this time, SoFi Stadium appeared and created a miracle. SoFi Stadium is the place where BTS’s LA concert will be held and it is famous for being the most expensive stadium in the world.
After hearing Harrison’s story, SoFi Stadium selected him as the “1 millionth visitor” and presented him with a ticket to BTS’s concert. Harrison also took commemorative photos in front of SoFi Stadium with a bright expression while wearing a T-shirt with Jungkook‘s name printed on it. Harrison, who achieved his dream, is scheduled to attend the concert in LA on Nov 27th.
Harrison’s older sister was thrilled, saying, “Maybe Harrison will continue to talk about this for the rest of his days.”
