Although these additional dates don’t seem enough to make a huge difference, it is a strategic move that elevates BTS to a total of 88 concerts across 23 cities around the world, with new concerts at two Asian stadiums with gigantic capacities.
In addition to the sold-out concerts in America and Europe, this new milestone turns the ‘ARIRANG’ world tour into the largest and most attended in K-pop history, surpassing his biggest competitors BLACKPINK’s ‘Born Pink World Tour’ and Stray Kids’ ‘dominATE’.
