BTS will invite even more ARMY to their upcoming comeback stage. Additional viewing areas have been opened for the concert at Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul.
BigHit Music announced on March 10 that extra seats for “BTS Comeback Live: ARIRANG” will be released to ensure a smoother viewing experience for fans.
Expanded Area From Gwanghwamun to City Hall Station
The newly added space will extend south of the Sejong-daero intersection, covering areas from Gwanghwamun Station (Line 5) to near City Hall Station (Line 1). The entire zone will operate as a standing section.
Fans will still be able to watch the performance through large LED screens placed throughout the venue. Ticketing for the additional section will open on March 12 at 8 p.m. through NOL Ticket. Existing ticket holders will not be eligible to purchase again.
With the expanded area, approximately 22,000 spectators are expected to attend “BTS Comeback Live: ARIRANG.” Organizers emphasized that crowd safety and effective distribution of attendees are top priorities.
Measures Against Scalping and Unauthorized Entry
The agency also stated it will strengthen countermeasures against ticket scalping and illegal entry.
Monitoring of resale posts will be intensified to block unauthorized ticket trading. Identity verification procedures at the venue will also be reinforced, and additional authentication will be introduced in areas where scalping activity is expected to be high.
“BTS Comeback Live: ARIRANG” will be streamed live simultaneously on Netflix. It marks the first time the platform has broadcast a solo live stage by a specific artist in real time.
Meanwhile, BTS will release their fifth full-length album ARIRANG on March 20 at 1 p.m. The album contains 14 tracks, including the title song Swim.
