BTS’ upcoming concert in Seoul to be broadcast live in cinemas next month

It’s dynamite news for BTS fans.

The Korean-pop supergroup’s concert in Seoul on March 12 is set to be broadcast live at movie theaters across the globe.

That concert will be one of three performed by BTS at the Seoul Olympic Stadium next month. The seven-member group is also performing at the venue on March 10 and March 13.

The shows mark BTS’ first live performances in front of an audience in Seoul since October 2019.

Known for songs such as “Dynamite” and “Butter,” BTS has been nominated at the Grammys for best pop duo/group performance in both of the last two years.

BTS has six No. 1 hits on Billboard’s Hot 100 singles chart, tying them for the fifth most of all time.

The concert announcement came shortly after news emerged Tuesday that the BTS member V had tested positive for COVID-19.

Last month, BTS member Jimin underwent appendicitis surgery and also tested positive for COVID-19. Fellow BTS members RM, Suga and Jin, meanwhile, tested positive for the virus in December.
