BTS is an acronym for “Bangtan Sonyeondan," which translates to “Bulletproof Boy Scouts”
Four years ago, the boy band went silent — but not before setting off a chain reaction that would reshape the pop market, conquer the Grammys and prime the world for an inevitable comeback.
Saturday's concert in Seoul saw the group perform their fifth studio album – Arirang – the day after its release.

Kpop superstar boyband BTS will embark on a world tour next month to showcase new album "ARIRANG", after marking the end of a more than three-year hiatus for military service with a concert at Seoul's historic Gwanghwamun Square on Saturday.
BTS launches Arirang and fills the iTunes Top Songs chart, with "Swim" leading a surge of top 10 entries at the start of a new tracking week.
The superstar boy band returns after a four-year hiatus on Friday. The genre it helped turn into a global juggernaut has endured some shifts, and minted new stars.
