BTS Comeback Show Duration at Gwanghwamun Square Decided by HYBE, Not City

BTS is set to perform their comeback show at Seoul's Gwanghwamun Square on March 21, following the release of their fifth studio album, ARIRANG. Reports suggested the performance would be limited to one hour due to city regulations, but HYBE and BIGHIT MUSIC clarified that the duration was their own decision. The 60-minute format was chosen considering the outdoor venue's characteristics, audience safety, site control, public transportation, and noise concerns. The Seoul Metropolitan Government did not impose any time restrictions.
