BTS' tours redefined K-pop’s global reach, breaking cultural and language barriers with sold-out stadiums and record-breaking grosses. Their 2018–2019 Love Yourself tour alone outperformed many Western acts like the Rolling Stones and Taylor Swift in specific venues! They are the 1st non-English-speaking and Asian act to sell out Wembley Stadium and the Rose Bowl with their Love Yourself World Tour, 2019 and have delivered history-making performances at the UN and Grammys, using their platform for messages of self-love, mental health and unity. Their 2026 ARIRANG era and post-military reunion brought cultural pride home with Korean-rooted sound while conquering the whole world again with record-breaking sold-out concerts, massive premieres, and anniversary celebrations in Busan. ARIRANG’s comeback live event this year attracted 104,000 attendees in Seoul, marking the largest public concert in Korea with 18.4 million Netflix live viewers, becoming the biggest live event by a music act in the history of Netflix! The BTS ARIRANG 2026–2027 World Stadium Tour shattered records with rapid sell-outs across 80+ shows with North America & Europe legs selling out in hours. BTS sold 2.4M tickets, with the fastest 4-night sell-out at the Allegiant Stadium ever (23 minutes), with 1 billion website accesses in one day, and early grosses of $124M from 660k tickets, topping Billboard Box office charts. It’s BTS's highest-grossing tour yet and a new benchmark for global stadium runs!

Korean music awards history! They are the 1st Asian Act to win the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry's (IFPI) Global Recording Artist of the Year in 2020 and repeated the feat for 2021, becoming the third artist, after Drake and Taylor Swift to win the award twice, and the first to do so in consecutive years!

BTS has been widely praised for their extensive charity work and has donated millions individually and as a group, including $1 million to Black Lives Matter (2020), major hospital funds in Korea and disaster relief!

Through BTS' Love Myself campaign with UNICEF since 2017, the group and ARMY have raised over US $6.6 million to combat violence against children and support youth mental health. These efforts earned them a UNICEF Inspire Award and South Korea’s Presidential Commendation!
From underground trainees to global superstars and K-Pop Legends, who redefined what’s possible for non-English artists, BTS turned “impossible” into their signature. They’ve proven music transcends language, borders, and expectations, spreading hope, joy, and empowerment to millions!

@FanOppasfromSP Coreano: The King Eternal Monarch porque la cantidad de detalles románticos que tiene ésa historia,es otro nivel! por los mismos detalles mi top sería
Chino: First Frost
Japón: Románticos Anónimos
Entiendo tu pensamiento, pero también entiendo, que no estuviste prestando atención a lo que los miembros y en especial tu obvio sesgo han dicho públicamente sobre querer, apreciar, valorar y extrañar por sobre todo a BTS como siete miembros juntos otra vez en el escenario 💜
Just a thought, but does anyone else find it strange that there don’t seem to be any solo stages on this tour?
In past BTS tours, solo stages were a huge part of the experience. Now all seven members have solo albums so you’d think this would be the perfect time to include them.
Part of me can’t help but wonder if Jin’s incredibly successful solo era, albums, songs changed the dynamic a little. His solo career has grown so much, and the response from fans has been massive. Sometimes I wonder if the decision to avoid solo stages was made so the focus stays completely on BTS as a group rather than having individual performances that might dominate the conversation afterward.
Of course, that’s just my personal theory and we don’t know the real reason unless the members talk about it themselves. It could simply be a creative choice. Still, it feels unusual that a group with seven solo artists would choose not to showcase any of that on tour.
I just wish he was allowed to have solo stage on the group tours couple of his songs like BACKGROUND, HEART ON THE WINDOW etc would have been better!
Am I the only one thinking about this, or has anyone else wondered the same thing? #BTSJIN #IGINI
@fer4racha A mí me pasa al revés,si uno de los protagonistas no es de mi agrado físicamente, pero la historia está buena, me termina gustando el/ la actriz 🤣
@AhmedKdrama2 When I started watching K-dramas, I was captivated by one actor and wanted to see his work, and he led me to a series called Bad Guys, which has an amazing cast. and there it was this actor plays a naive prosecutor, an impeccable job.
¿Por qué NADIE está hablando de esta JOYA absoluta?
Romance adulto de verdad, una mujer divorciada, el gerente de un hotel, química brutal y capítulos de 45 minutos que se pasan volando.
Estoy enamoradísima. ¡Tenéis que verla!
Terminanda ésta historia,muy bien planteado el sistema de contralor para evitar todo tipo de abusos en los espacios de trabajo y en lo personal, la importancia de valorar el momento de tomar decisiones que cambian la vida y aceptar las consecuencias que ello trae 👍
you're trapped on an island and can only listen to ONE bts album forever. which one are you taking
and NO you can't say "all of them" 😭
#armytwt DO YOU THANG~
