BTS Reportedly To Hold 65 Concerts Next Year, Triggers Backlash Online

K-fans are disappointed.

International media outlets recently reported that BTS, which has completed its military service, is preparing for a world tour following the release of a new album next year.

On October 26, Bloomberg reported that BTS plans 65 concerts worldwide next year. In particular, more than 30 world tour concerts are scheduled in the United States.

After the last member, Suga, was discharged from the military last June, the group has reportedly been working on a new album with HYBE.

The new album will be their first release in six years and is expected to be released at the end of March next year.

BTS, which canceled its 2020 world tour due to the COVID-19 pandemic, held 12 concerts in four cities from 2021 to 2022. The last concert with all seven members was in Las Vegas in April 2022.

However, K-Netizens were disappointed that they wouldn’t be able to see them much.

• “They’ve become blinded by money and decided to continue with that member…What can you expect from a company with a CEO like that…”
• “I guess we will barely be able to see them in Korea…”
• “They’re just not going to be in Korea…”
• “Are they going to part ways after this tour…the number of concerts is insane…”
• “The more energy they have to use, the bigger the venue…they need to care for their health.”
• “If 30 concerts are in the U.S, then they’re just going to live in the states.”
• “Don’t do it. I hate group concerts that show popular members on the LED screens. If three held solo concerts, the rest of the members should have solo concerts too.”

Meanwhile, Big Hit Music responded, “The schedule and scale of the new world tour have not been decided yet.”
