The group BTS (BTS) expressed its position regarding the performance time at Gwanghwamun Square.
Hive said in an official statement on the 28th, "The Seoul Metropolitan Government has never limited the time of the Gwanghwamun Square performance to one hour. The performance time is a decision of Hive and Big Hit Music," he said.
Recently, Hive directly dismissed BTS's Gwanghwamun Square performance through an online community after speculation was raised that the performance time was shortened due to the Seoul Metropolitan Government's administrative regulations.
"We comprehensively considered the specificity of being an outdoor public place, visitor safety, on-site control, convenience of using public transportation, and noise during the late night hours," Hive said, explaining the reason for setting the performance time to one hour.
Meanwhile, BTS will release its fifth full-length album "ARIRANG" at 1 p.m. on March 20 and come back as a whole.
They will hold "BTS Comeback Live: ARIRANG" in Gwanghwamun Square for about an hour from 8 p.m. on the 21st, the day after its release. The show will be broadcast live online on Netflix.
