Indonesia is ramping up their COVID-19 vaccination drives and motivating people to get their jabs, and one of their recent vaccination exercises is a BTS-themed location in the country's capital, Jakarta.

Fans of the Korean boy group BTS in Indonesia organized the vaccination program in Jakarta's Convention Centre. One of its main attractions is an art exhibition called Stay Gold which featured images of the members of BTS as well as a setup showing a full BTS concert video for everyone to enjoy while getting vaccinated.
