BTS Daily Chile⁷ wrote that the seven members of BTS had said goodbye to Chile dressed as huasos, with blankets and chupallas, items described as part of the identity and cultural heritage of the country. The account explained that the huaso was an emblematic figure of rural culture, especially in the central region, and had historically been linked to agriculture, livestock, and horseback life. It also noted that the blankets, generally made of wool, and the chupallas, primarily made of straw or plant fibers, had transitioned from fulfilling practical functions to being recognizable elements of traditional clothing. BTS Daily Chile⁷ added that these garments were connected to rural roots, traditional celebrations, and the cueca dance. According to the account, seeing the members of the group wearing them during their farewell had been a way to connect with Chilean traditions and share part of the cultural identity with ARMY. https://t.co/VhcKMtgMmJ #CulturaChilena #Tradiciones #Huaso (translated)
