Handed over 300 freebies of mine, some were reluctant to accept cos they have nothing to give me in return but when I said its not for trade, the look on their faces reminded me why I prepared so many in the first place. Gonna do it again without a doubt 💜

Euro ARMYs (and non-Europeans going to the concerts) we are all COOKED—LITERALLY. 🥵

We’ll all end up wearing knickers as our concert fits if this continues until July 🫣

@luvr8gigi @VannyVante @babyjmin I'd never call anyone "boring" for that, you should def only participate in a moshpit if you feel comfortable with it!! 🫶🏼

And if we do this, we'd absolutely need some sort of flyer with the basic rules to distribute or smth like that, to make it safe for everyone 🤝🏼💜

@BirbWithASword @VannyVante doing a moshpit really can change how the tannies see us and we would be the first ones to

Three years of mandatory military service punched a $3.6 billion annual hole in South Korea's economy. Last night, in the same Busan stadium where they said goodbye before enlisting, on their 13th debut anniversary, BTS started filling it back in.

The $3.6 billion figure came from the Hyundai Research Institute. This wasn't from album sales. It came from 1 in every 13 foreign tourists visiting Korea because of the group, the hotels those tourists filled, the cosmetics they shipped home, the restaurants that stayed packed for days around every show. The Hyundai estimate put their annual economic output in the same range as Korean Air. South Korea's government spent years debating whether to grant military exemptions to all seven members.

In October 2022, before enlisting, BTS played their final group concert in Busan. Free. 50,000 in-person at Busan Asiad Main Stadium, 49 million streaming online. Korea's Culture and Tourism Institute estimated that single free show generated $660 million in economic activity for the city. Two members, Jimin and Jungkook, grew up there. The city lit Gwangan Bridge purple, the group's signature color, and kept it lit for weeks.

Then everyone went quiet. Jin enlisted first, December 2022. By late 2023, all seven were in uniform. HYBE, the entertainment company that manages BTS, watched its stock nearly halve over the following year. Concert revenue, merch sales, and fan events all fell.

Suga was last, discharged June 21, 2025.

Through its first two months on the road, the ARIRANG World Tour has grossed $124 million from 660,000 tickets. Tampa alone pulled $40.7 million over three nights, more than the Seoul and Tokyo legs combined. South Korean analysts expect the full tour to bring in between $1.3 billion and $1.87 billion by March 2027. The Love Yourself Tour in 2018 and 2019 made $187 million total across 38 shows. ARIRANG has cleared two-thirds of that, and it's June.

The name they chose for all of this: Arirang. Korea's unofficial national anthem, a folk song over 600 years old with 3,600 regional variations, UNESCO-listed since 2012. Banned during Japan's 35-year occupation of Korea. Sung in both North and South Korea, one of the few things crossing that political border. Korea's National Folk Museum calls it the cultural DNA of the Korean people. BTS named their comeback after a song about separation, endurance, and return.

Last night in Busan, same stadium, Gwangan Bridge lit purple again. 55,000 paid tickets instead of zero. Less than a year back from service, NH Financial Group now projects BTS fan spending hitting $6.58 billion a year in South Korea by 2040. Nearly double what they generated before enlisting.

[elle⁷ @arirangrkive]

met the biggest opp in seoul

[e⁷ • 아포방포 @seekingHYYH]

Their European leg is the most intense one of their entire tour, almost no rest gap, plus FIFA prep. praying they complete it healthily and have fun.

also. take of your jackets ffs. the heat is going to cook you up 😭 everywhere they go it's summer.

[ᴍɪɴ⁷🏡💜 @tripleminz]

I'm still in Busan, but i just want to give a shout out to my Airbnb owner. She got us this 😭😭😭💜💜

[Ulrike⁷ is seeing bts 🍉 @taerashbag]

In less than 2 weeks BTS will be in Europe for the first time in 7years. I’m begging you, please behave. Don’t stalk them. Don’t go to airports. Stay the fuck away from their hotel. Give them the best concert ever. Show them we’re worthy of concerts, so we won’t be skipped again.

[sophie @thvchapters]

in a few days the tannies will be struggling to open the european water bottles, fighting annoying mosquitoes and performing fya in the bright sun.

@Raya_for_BTS @IsyCutiie @SunshiineMoon I mean it's not too different from bigger projects for marketing purposes, like for the promotion of a new movie or smth
There are agencies for it, and I'm sure that LiveNation (who BH works with for this Tour) are capable to do it and would have the connections needed too

[Raya⁷ @Raya_for_BTS]

I doubt that any German city will ever have the City projects. HYBE would need to do a ton of paperwork 3 years in advance because Germany burocracy is that slow. And they would need to submit the papers in Germany. I don't even know who would be responsible for granting it!+

[Swordbirb Nami⁷ ⊙⊝⊜ WE ARE SO BACK!! 💜 🏳️‍🌈🫰🏼 @BirbWithASword]

@gloss_mimi @btwhvnhl Well, we definitely would need to hand out flyers with basic moshpit rules/etiquette, and point out a spot for it before the show, so all ARMY who want to join it can assemble there before 🫡

[Dashydefiance⁷ ⊙⊝⊜ @dashydefiance]

Please know there’s a lot k army who are very kind and love to have foreigners too. For example I though this was super cute!

@CCjo7949 Why is this video 700h long

[Luna McNally⁷ @LunaMcNally]

@CCjo7949 Here’s the problem. Without choreo, as most of this concert is, Jimin is…UNRESTRAINED.
