Fans can experience the emotions of BTS's concert through an album.
BTS will release their live album 'Permission to Dance on Stage - Live' on the 18th at 1 PM. This album captures the live performances from their tour of the same name, which took place online and offline in three cities: Seoul, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas, from 2021 to 2022. This is their first live album featuring concert performances since their debut.
The album includes 22 songs, featuring mega hits like 'Dynamite', 'Butter', and 'Permission to Dance', as well as beloved tracks such as 'Blood Sweat & Tears', 'Life Goes On', 'Spring Day', and 'Dope'.
What makes this special is that the songs have been newly arranged for the concert and are presented in live versions. 'Fire' and 'IDOL' have been restructured with a more intense sound, while 'Dynamite' and 'Butter' have been enhanced with brass sessions, giving them a more lively and cheerful impression. Additionally, most of the songs have been arranged to fit a live band setup, delivering a rich and dynamic feel.
BTS's tour 'BTS Permission to Dance on Stage' attracted 4 million viewers worldwide through various formats, including live performances, online live streaming, live viewing, and live play. This album captures the heat and emotion of the tour, which was shared by millions of fans, along with the voices that filled the venue.
Along with the album release, the last three performances from the concert held at Jamsil Stadium in Songpa-gu, Seoul, in 2022 will be released as a 141-minute digital code. The digital code allows fans to watch high-quality VOD on the global superfan platform Weverse by registering and verifying the code. An interview photobook capturing the brilliant moments and behind-the-scenes of the members on stage will also be provided.
Meanwhile, BTS has officially announced their comeback in the spring of 2026. During a Weverse live broadcast on the 1st, they revealed that all members will sequentially travel to the United States starting in July to begin serious music production and concert preparations. They plan to release new music in 2026 and hold a large-scale world tour, marking the complete return of the '21st Century Pop Icons'.
