MANILA, Philippines — Sean Evans hosted his biggest table yet on First We Feast's long-running series "Hot Ones" by having the seven members of BTS appear on the show.

Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook — who are promoting their comeback album "Arirang" and sprawling world tour of the same name — were all tasked with eating chicken wings of different spice levels while answering questions from Sean.

Early on, group leader RM acknowledged that Koreans enjoy spicy food but he considered BTS' members having low spice tolerance, predicting two of their younger members Jungkook and Jimin to last until the end.

"Come on wings!" Jimin said, a phrase he, Jungkook, and several of their groupmates would repeat throughtout the episode.

V tapped out after the first wing, which had a creamy garlic sauce, despite other members finding it easy and sweet, after Suga explained the meaning their new album's opening song "Body to Body."

Sean continued to ask about tteokbokki, mornings after shows, and BTS potentially becoming the biggest touring Koreans ever, with the group praising the third homemade gochujang sauce made by a First We Feast staff member.

Jin was caught by surprise when Sean asked what his biggest catch was in fishing, pasttime of his. V recalled Jin catching six fish one time, and the latter shared the experience of eating one's catch is quite different.

During the fourth level, a smoked habanero and peach sauce, J-Hope noticed that RM was beginning to sweat and the leader quipped that was why he donned sunglasses for the show.

V and RM then praised Sean for asking Suga about the underground rap battle scene in his hometown Daegu while performing as Gloss.

"I feel a bit shy calling myself an underground rapper. When I was young doing music in Daegu, I would look forward to performing in Seoul," Suga said in Korean. "Daegu hardly had any venues, there was no real way to make money.  So I realized if I want to do music then I need to head to Seoul."

J-Hope and Jin began audibly reacting to the growing spice starting from the fifth sauce made from sweet scotch bonnet peppers, with Jimin and Jungkook also beginning to feel the heat.

BTS taught Sean how to play Sam Yuk Gu (3-6-9) and because the host lost, as punishment Sean wasn't allowed to drink milk or water anymore.

Jimin, Jungkook, J-Hope and especially Jin reacted a lot to the seventh sauce that had galangal, kaffir, and other organic ingredients, though RM similarly was caught by surprise when Sean asked about his former rapper name Runch Randa.

Everyone but Sean, Jungkook and Jimin tapped out after the Da' Bomb Beyond Insanity sauce that came next. Jin stood up and screamed repeatedly, RM continued sweating, and J-Hope began doing the choreography for BTS' latest single "Swim."

Jin and J-Hope teasingly enjoyed vanilla ice cream, which annoyed Jimin and Jungkook as they ate the penultimate wings dipped in Smoked Serrano Squash Reaper X sauce. 

Fans did get a real treat as the members sang portions of their favorite anime opening tracks like the ones from "Digimon," "Ultimate Muscle," "Midori no Makiba?" and "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day."

All eight individuals tried the last sauce, a curated one by the show, which everyone dabbed with a chicken wing. "This is illegal, this should be prohibited by law!" quipped RM after everyone had a taste.

The episode ended with each member making their "just ate the hottest wings in the world" poses and V promoting their tour — although Jimin and Jungkook continued eating wings while J-Hope, Jin and Suga had more ice cream.

BTS' "Arirang" world tour officially kicked off in Goyang and will continue until next year, currently set to end on March 13 and 14 in the Philippines.

No official venue has been announced yet but the shows will mark the group's first perfomances in the country after a decade. — Video from First We Feast's YouTube channel
