BTS is expected to host around 15,000 ticketed fans at its comeback concert, “BTS The Comeback Live: Arirang”, in central Seoul on March 21.

The free concert will be held at Gwanghwamun Square, a day after the release of BTS’ fifth studio album, Arirang — their first album since Proof (2022) and their first after all members completed military service.

The performance will begin with the group walking from Gyeongbok Palace through Gwanghwamun Gate before arriving at the main stage.

About 2,000 standing tickets were made available for early applicants, while additional reserved seats will be sold later. The concert will also be streamed live globally on Netflix in more than 190 countries.

Authorities expect the crowd around the venue to exceed 200,000 people.
