Where to stream BTS' 'Arirang' comeback concert on March 21
The wait is almost over, ARMY! BTS is coming back on stage on March 21.
After a four-year break as a group, the K-pop supergroup—composed of RM, j-hope, Jung Kook, Jin, SUGA, Jimin, and V—is returning to the stage, featuring the first-ever live performance of their songs from the upcoming fifth studio album, ARIRANG, which will be released on Friday, March 20.
The special concert will be held in Seoul’s Gwanghwamun Square on Saturday. If you cannot physically attend the concert, Netflix will livestream the concert on the same day at 7 p.m. (Philippine time) for all subscribers. Netflix subscription plans in the Philippines currently start at P169 per month for the Mobile tier and reach P619 per month for the Premium tier, which supports up to four simultaneous 4K streams.
To cope with the post-concert blues you may have, Netflix will also release BTS: THE RETURN, a documentary film on the making of the album, on March 27.
Its label HYBE earlier announced that the highly anticipated event will run for only one hour to ensure crowd control and public safety.
"The concert duration was decided by HYBE and Big Hit Music. We comprehensively considered the unique nature of an outdoor public venue, audience safety, on-site crowd control, the convenience of using public transportation, and noise during late-night hours," the agency said.
The group went on hiatus as the members were scheduled to fulfill South Korea's mandatory military service. Jin and j-hope were discharged in 2024, and RM, V, Jimin, and Jung Kook finished their service in early June 2025. SUGA was the last member to be discharged on June 21, 2025.
During their break, each member was busy pursuing their solo albums and shows.
ARIRANG will be BTS' first album release since the group took a hiatus in June 2022 to complete members' mandatory military service. All members are reportedly involved in creating songs for the 14-track record.
Following the album launch, the K-pop boy group will hold their comeback global tour starting on April 9 in Goyang, South Korea. They will then head over to Japan, North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, performing 79 shows in 34 regions.
Their Manila leg is set on March 13 and 14, 2027.
