Goyang Stadium, April 11: The boyband’s opening residency of their first world tour in nearly seven years weaves elements of traditional Korean culture into a high-tech, modern production
They played ‘Come Over’, ‘Please’, ‘Into The Sun’ and more live for the first time
It’s been over three-and-a-half years since the boyband staged a full-length concert – and even longer since they went on tour. Here’s the songs NME hopes they’ll perform as they kick off the ‘Arirang’ world tour
Including tracks by Seventeen and Charli XCX
'Come Over' is currently exclusive to the physical deluxe vinyl, though fans have created a petition to get it on streaming platforms
Including tracks from their latest album ‘Arirang’

While the turnout was lower than expected, it still broke the record for the largest-ever public concert in South Korea
