BTS in Melbourne

BTS are a seven-member South Korean pop group formed in Seoul in 2013. RM, Jin, Suga, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook perform pop, hip-hop and dance music; their best-known releases include the albums Wings, Love Yourself: Tear and Map of the Soul: 7, and the singles “DNA,” “Boy with Luv,” “Dynamite” and “Butter.” The 2017 BTS Live Trilogy Episode III: The Wings Tour took the group through arenas before the Love Yourself World Tour and its Speak Yourself extension moved into stadiums, including two 2019 concerts at Wembley Stadium. After the Map of the Soul Tour was cancelled during the pandemic, BTS returned to in-person concerts through Permission to Dance on Stage, performing at SoFi Stadium in 2021 and Allegiant Stadium in 2022. BTS have repeatedly taken arena and stadium shows to Japan and the United States, including Tokyo Dome and Soldier Field in Chicago. In South Korea, the group staged the free Yet to Come concert at Busan Asiad Main Stadium in 2022.
