On Friday, BTS released the music video of their new song Permission to Dance. While fans praised BTS members RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook for the new avatars, a few fans also said the video reminded them of Steal My Girl, by One Direction.

Permission to Dance is BTS' third all-English track. The song has been co-written by Ed Sheeran and sung by the BTS members. The video is set up in what appears to be a desert while the members imagine life after the Covid-19 pandemic ends.

One Direction, which comprised of Zayn Malik, Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan at the time of inception, released Steal My Girl in 2014.

Several BTS fans, who are also fans of One Direction, took to Twitter and shared moments from both the music videos to point out the similarities. The location, the balloons soaring in the air, and the performers in the music video coming together at the end of the Permission to Dance music video reminded them of Steal My Girl. Some also said that the vibe of Permission to Dance was similar to the music One Direction release in their early days in the industry.
