World’s famous K-pop boy band BTS has announced additional dates for their 2021 North American concerts at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, California. The famous South Korean group is set to perform live on stage on November 27th, November 28th, December 1st, and December 2nd. The North American tour was rescheduled for March 2020 because of the coronavirus. Along with their many online staged performances, this will be BTS’ first in-person show since “BTS World Tour Love Yourself: Speak Yourself [The Final]” in 2019. The news surprised the members of the “Army” (as BTS’ followers are known) who have long been waiting for the group’s comeback. National and regional health measures will be followed at the said shows. Ticket selling for the shows has started last October 2 through Ticketmaster. Meanwhile, several fans were disappointed by the ticket selling process, blaming Ticketmaster of long wait times, slow online system, and unusable access codes.
