BTS announces 'Bang Bang Con 2021' virtual event
Apr 11, 2021
Washington [US], April 11 : Popular South Korean boy band BTS has announced that the 'Bang Bang' Con is returning in 2021.
According to Billboard, the K-pop band took to social media on Saturday (local time) to announce 'Bang Bang Con 21'. The virtual event is scheduled to take place on April 17 at 3 p.m. KST on the septet's official YouTube channel 'BANGTANTV.'
"BTS concert in your room #BANGBANGCON21 coming soon!" the group wrote on Instagram.
Billboard reported that last April's inaugural 'Bang Bang Con' was a free two-day online concert series featuring live performance footage dating back to 2015. The event arrived after the act's 2020 'Map of the Soul' tour was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
That summer, BTS followed up with 'Bang Bang Con: The Live', a 90-minute pay-per-view concert. The virtual performance was held on June 14, a day after the band's seventh anniversary.
'BTS' recently dropped the new song 'Film Out,' a collaboration with J-pop band Back Number that appears as the ending theme in the new Japanese film 'Signal: Long-Term Unsolved Case Investigation Team'. The track will be included on the septet's next Japanese-language album, 'BTS, The Best', which is scheduled for release on June 16.
