For the first time since 2019, BTS received the honor of winning English football

At Tottenham, BTS brought the album’s themes to life. Before reaching the stage, the audience heard the sacred bell of King Seongdeok, one of Korea’s most revered cultural treasures 1,200 years ago.

The massive 360-degree stage, which featured four catwalks to the audience, was also inspired by the Gyeongweru Pavilion in Seoul’s Gyeongbokgung Palace, with the stage floor incorporating visual elements inspired by the South Korean flag.

Instead of taking place in very dry conditions The first night at Goyang StadiumThe first London date is mostly focused on Arirang’s album, which returns to the band’s hip-hop roots.

They launched into action with a burst of pyrotechnics and fireworks along with Hooligan, which featured their trademark honeyed harmonies and crisp rap verses.

Surrounded by 50 dancers, dressed head-to-toe in black, the opener set a high bar and a BTS version of Run that matched Daffy Alliance.

The highlight was the 2026 FYA and 2016 firefight, during which the fans jumped wildly and I could really feel the stands under my feet.

The group responded to the energy, running up and down the catwalks and spraying water on fans (and each other) as the beats rang out.

Main also got a huge response in the stadium – Jimin took out his headphones during the first anthem to hear the fans’ words.

“You really should join us on tour,” V told his fans after the song. The roar that followed was so powerful it could have destroyed the entire city.
