After a four-year hiatus, K-pop supergroup BTS is finally back!
On Saturday, March 21, thousands of ARMY turned central Seoul’s Gwanghwamun Square into a sea of purple as they witnessed the group’s first stage comeback in four years.
ARMY from different parts of the world brought their lightsticks and their loudest cheers to support the Bangtan boys. During the one-hour performance, the group performed their songs from their new album, Arirang, including Swim, Aliens, Body to Body, as well as crowd-favorite hits like Mic Drop, Dynamite, and Mikrokosmos.
While they couldn’t attend the show in person, most of these Filipino celebrities made sure to show their support for the K-pop idols by watching the livestream on Netflix.
