BTS performed a record-breaking 14 sold-out concerts across five South American cities, drawing a total of approximately 853,000 fans, their agency announced on Monday. The South Korean group concluded its "BTS World Tour 'Arirang'" in Brazil, with three shows at Estadio do Morumbi in Sao Paulo on October 28, 30, and 31, as reported by BigHit Music, the label under HYBE.
The tour commenced on October 2 in Bogota, Colombia, and progressed to Lima, Santiago, and Buenos Aires. The name of the tour derives from the group's fifth studio album, "Arirang," which is inspired by the renowned Korean traditional folk song. The performance lineup included a mix of new songs and hits such as "Fake Love," "Idol," "Butter," and "Dynamite."
The members also interacted with the audiences by speaking to them in local languages. BTS expressed their excitement, stating that South America was one of the most anticipated destinations on their tour schedule, given the limited opportunities for them to connect with fans in the region. They were deeply moved by the reception and felt compelled to return soon to express their gratitude.
This tour marked BTS' debut as a full group in Colombia and Argentina, and their first visit to Peru since their 2013 launch. The group had returned to Chile after a nine-year absence.
