BTS ARMY Meltdown for 'BTS Comeback Live | Arirang'

Great news for ARMY is that BTS is officially back! The bad news is that everyone and their mother (or father) wants a piece of BTS! We explain why Netflix's live streaming of BTS's Comeback Live performance had ARMY crashing out.

As K-pop fans have been waiting patiently for over three years since their last album, Proof, in 2022, Arirang is probably one of, if not the, biggest albums the K-pop community has been anticipating. With all the BTS members finally completing their mandatory military service, it's time to move forward with music and concerts!



New Album, Harder Challenges Await


Needless to say, with everyone waiting for Arirang to drop on March 20, 2026, at 1 PM KST, attending BTS events and concerts will be an all-out war. Weverse announced event applications for the 'BTS Comeback Live | Arirang' event on February 10, offering only 2,000 standing spots via raffle for ARMY members who buy qualifying album versions from February 10-13. The Netflix live streaming event will happen at Gwanghwamun Square on Saturday, March 21, 2026, at 8 PM KST.

Fans Express Their Frustrations


Due to the limited standing room availability for the live streaming event (2,000 standing room spots), fans took to social media to express their disappointment, but still urged those who can attend to apply.



Many fans complained (with a grain of salt) that "2,000 tickets were too low and should have been at least 10,000. Please put ARMY before the general public. (With sly grin emoji)." Needless to say, there were plenty of sad or crying emojis in the comment sections, although many ARMYs were very encouraging to those who could attend. This is the power of K-pop fandom we can get behind!


Final Thoughts


We at Dojeon Media are proud that ARMY can stand together and support each other in watching our favorite idols perform. Regardless of whether we can see them live or via streaming, we can be happy, as a fandom, that BTS is together again and can spread positivity throughout the world!
