BTS have announced that the septet will make their highly anticipated return to the stage to perform live globally on Netflix on March 21.
The BTS live concert will stream beginning at 8 p.m. KST, 4 a.m. PT / 7 a.m. ET.
The K-pop juggernaut will perform live for the first time after their hiatus, lasting three years and nine months.
RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook will return to the stage as a unit for a concert in Seoul's historic Gwanghwamun Square.
They'll share the first live performances of songs off their upcoming fifth studio album, ARIRANG, among others. The long-awaited record is due to be released on March 20, the day before the concert.
Following the live concert, the band will embark on the ARIRANG World Tour, which will span 34 regions and feature 82 shows around the globe.
Additionally, BTS: The Return, a BTS documentary film showcasing the making of ARIRANG, will be premiered on Netflix on March 27.
BTS's hiatus was driven by South Korea's mandatory military service requirements. In December 2022, the BTS members put their wildly successful careers on hold as each enlisted for up to 18 months of mandatory military service.
As some members left for enlistment, others released various solo work in their own time. Jin and j-hope were discharged in 2024, and RM, V, Jimin, and Jung Kook were discharged in early June 2025. SUGA was the last member to be discharged on June 21, 2025.
