BTS to Hold Live Comeback Performance on Netflix at Gwanghwamun Square on March 21

BTS will make their official comeback stage after completing their military service. Netflix and HYBE have announced that they will stream BTS’s comeback concert, “BTS THE COMEBACK LIVE | ARIRANG,” globally from Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul on March 21, 2026. The new album ARIRANG will be released one day earlier, on March 20, marking BTS’s first official activities following the completion of their mandatory military service.

All seven members of BTS—RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook—will reunite on stage. This will be the first time they have all appeared together on an official stage since being discharged from military service simultaneously. This live special was planned as an event to celebrate the release of BTS’s fifth studio album, ARIRANG.

The concert will be streamed live from Gwanghwamun Square, one of Seoul’s most iconic landmarks. It will be the first live event streamed via Netflix in South Korea, providing fans around the world with the opportunity to watch BTS’s comeback performance at the same time.

On March 27, following the concert, the documentary film “BTS: The Return” is set to release on Netflix. Directed by Bao Nguyen, this film follows the production process of the ARIRANG album and captures the challenges BTS faced as they adapted back to idol life after completing their mandatory military service. Netflix stated that the documentary will offer fans “rarely seen behind-the-scenes moments” of BTS’s comeback journey.

The documentary is expected to show how BTS created new music by going through “moments of doubt, laughter, and rediscovery” to reflect who they are today.
