The group BTS (BTS RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, Jungkook) had its Busan concert start 1 hour and 15 minutes late.

According to officials on the 12th, the 'BTS WORLD TOUR ARIRANG IN BUSAN' performance by the group BTS held at Busan Asiad Main Stadium in Yeonje-gu, Busan, was delayed due to delayed audience entry.

Originally, the concert was scheduled to start at 7 p.m., but because not all audience members had entered, it started 1 hour and 15 minutes late at 8:15 p.m.

On various SNS and communities on that day, posts appeared one after another stating that even though the concert time of 7 p.m. had arrived, they could not enter. Fans had arrived early that day and waited in line, but it was reported that confusion arose during the distribution of gifts given to entering guests due to a shortage of gifts. Additionally, it was reported that some issues with personal verification were not proceeding smoothly.

The BTS concert on that day proceeded 1 hour and 15 minutes late. In response, HYBE posted an official statement on Weverse and conveyed an apology regarding the performance delay.

HYBE stated, "We deeply apologize to all audience members who came to watch the BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG' IN BUSAN performance held on the 12th for the significant inconvenience caused by the delay in the start of the performance. We prepared as much as possible to ensure no negligence in operations to provide a meaningful time for the audience, but the delay in the start of the main performance was caused by a combination of on-site guidance confusion, bottlenecks in the waiting line during the fan gift distribution process, and delays in receiving merchandise." It further stated, "We sincerely apologize again for the great disappointment and inconvenience caused to the audience members who waited for a long time to watch the performance. For the performance held the following day, we will thoroughly inspect and improve the entire on-site operation, including entry and gift distribution, to prevent the same congestion from occurring."

Meanwhile, BTS will continue its World Tour 'Arirang (ARIRANG)' performance at Busan Asiad Main Stadium on the 13th, following the 12th.
