It never fails to make me emotional whenever BTS talks about being together again. 🥹💜
Jin: These guys are the best, you know? I’ve done promotions and even toured without the others before, and there was a lot of pressure there. There was this fear in the back of my mind. Performing without them taught me something—how grateful I am that we get to do this together and how much it means to me. When I’m with them, we end up laughing our way through everything, and onstage, too, I’m so happy that I just can’t help smiling.
Jimin: Reuniting like this was a vivid reminder of just how grateful and happy I am that all seven of us get to perform together. I think seeing all seven of us onstage together from start to finish during this tour says everything about how we see our group and how we feel about each other.
j-hope: With our group, you could never replace any of the members. Each of us has our own role to play, and there’s a kind of beauty you only get when we’re all lumped together. And more than anything, I think there’s this connection with people all over the world that only exists when all seven of us are together. Since this tour is our first time being back with our fans in a long time, we wanted to give them as much time with the whole group as possible. That’s really all there is to it.
SUGA: I’m just grateful that, even 13 years later, we still get to go on tour and keep being singers.

BTS explained why the ARIRANG World Tour setlist doesn’t include any solo performances—they wanted the spotlight to be entirely on BTS as a group.🥹💜
🐰Jung Kook: You hit the nail on the head with our intention. It’s pretty unusual for a group to fill an entire concert exclusively with group songs from start to finish anymore. We wanted to remind everyone what BTS is like as a group, and since it’s been so long since our last tour, we tried to focus on the kind of energy we have when we’re all together. Obviously that makes things harder, but we wanted to immerse the audience in that feeling of all seven of us putting on the show together, all the way through.
🐻V: We all felt that we should be focusing on the group rather than subunit or solo songs. I think that is the core of this tour. Having the seven of us back together after all this time feels special, and it’s also our way of saying we want to keep doing this together.
🐨RM: We wanted to put more weight on reaffirming the BTS brand that’s brought all of us this far. We’re at a point now where we can end up with a totally different outcome depending on what we choose to pour our energy into. That’s not me trying to explain or describe it. It’s just a feeling. It’s like, we have to do something to show that we’re locked in as a group, now that we’re back after such a long time away. After all, we’re talking about 13 years of history that the seven of us and ARMY have been building together.
🐱SUGA: I think it’s so “Bangtan” that the seven of us are still so aligned.
BTS WILL ALWAYS BE SEVEN!!💜

@bangvik_ Yo si recuerdo, tengo hasta mi video y todo. Lo que si no recuerdo es haber cantado Fire. No tengo ni un solo recuerdo y lo peor es que ni lo grabe.
