After nearly four years away from performing together, BTS is officially making their long-awaited return with a live global concert streaming exclusively on Netflix on March 21. 

Titled BTS THE COMEBACK LIVE | ARIRANG, the concert will be streamed live from Seoul’s historic Gwanghwamun Square, the main gate of Gyeongbokgung Palace. The performance begins at 8 p.m. KST (4 a.m. PT / 7 a.m. ET) available to all Netflix subscribers.

The concert comes just one day after the release of BTS’s fifth studio album, ARIRANG, dropping March 20. Fans can expect the first live performances of tracks from the new record, along with other favorites from their catalog.

Netflix will also premiere a companion documentary, BTS: THE RETURN, on March 27. Directed by Bao Nguyen, the film follows RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook as they reunite in Los Angeles to create new music, offering an intimate look at their creative process and journey back together after their hiatus.

BTS paused group activities in 2022 to fulfill South Korea’s mandatory military service, with all seven members officially completing enlistment by June 2025.

Following the Netflix concert, BTS will launch the ARIRANG World Tour, spanning 34 regions with 82 shows worldwide.

More details on tickets and the official set list are expected soon.
