One of the most discussed parts of the announcement came from statements made by BTS regarding the tour’s scale. While the boy group already confirmed a large number of concerts, they shared that they personally asked their agency to add even more locations and venues. A post published by @AboutMusicYT on January 16 revealed that they asked management to expand the list so more fans could attend the live shows. Thanks to the statement, BTS fans (also known as ARMY) are getting ready for the group to reach as many cities as possible during their world tour.
