After taking fans down memory lane with their previous virtual fest, ‘Bang Bang Con’, in April, K-pop band BTS is returning with another weekend concert to celebrate its seventh anniversary. The seven members of the boy band, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook, are returning to celebrate their special day with fans with equally special performances. However, unlike the first virtual concert, which streamed for free, fans need to buy tickets to watch ‘Bang Bang Con The Live’.
Here’s everything you need to know about BTS’s upcoming event, including air time, ticket price and live stream details.
Where to watch
ARMY can buy tickets on the Weverse app. Once it has been bought successfully, a link will be sent to the buyer, permitting access to the virtual concert. According to reports, each ticket is being sold for $26.09.
When to stream
‘Bang Bang Con The Live’ will start on June 14 at 6 pm KST which is 5 am ET. “According to Big Hit, fans can select and enjoy the screens they want to see in real-time among the six multi-view screens played simultaneously on one player during the performance,” states Pressreels.
BTS’s first virtual concert was a major success among ARMY. The two-day concert presented a series of footage from the band’s previous concerts and shows. Fans from across the world tuned in to watch the K-Pop band perform. Reportedly, the event received over 50.5 million views in just two days.
With BTS celebrating its seventh anniversary, fans are rushing to book their tickets despite them being sold for $26.09. “Ok I finally was able to get my ticket for #BangBangConTheLive time to wake up at 5 am,” wrote one fan on Twitter.
However, the majority of fans are sad that they can’t afford the ticket, considering the financial setback the pandemic has caused. One disappointed fan wrote, “#BangBangConTheLive as a broke army myself, I might not be able to watch the concert when it starts. Due to many factors and one of that is, I don’t have the money to purchase the ticket. And also, I need to work. I just wish the boys their great health and everyone to enjoy…”
“When your too broke to buy the bang bang con live ticket so you try your best to find someone live streaming it on youtube..... broke gang #BangBangConTheLive,” wrote another.
