Pouring rain, soaked clothes and a wet stage did not deter RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook as they rapped, crooned, danced and joked with delighted, screaming fans
The show was a heavy nod to their new chart-topping album Arirang, with some classics like Fake Love and fully-English hits like Dynamite added in
The emphasis on Arirang shows how “confident they are with the material”, writes our music critic, adding: “I have to admit, the music sounded incredible on stage”
The act took a break at their peak in 2022 for mandatory military service, also using the time for solo project
Our critic previously called Arirang a “genuine return to form”, but fans are divided. Some worry BTS is straying from K-pop as it pursues a global legacy
