The Tokyo Dome concert by BTS (BTS, RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook) will be broadcast on Japanese television this November, delivering another wave of emotion.

Japan's TBS will air the live footage from the first day of BTS's Tokyo Dome concert on April 17 as "BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG' IN JAPAN" at 8 p.m. on November 28 on "TBS Channel 1 Latest Dramas, Music, and Movies," marking its exclusive TV premiere. The broadcast will also feature the group singing "Arirang" together with the audience as a highlight of the show, which drew a total of 110,000 attendees over two days.

TBS plans to schedule "BTS Special ~Precious New Chapter~" for the entire month of November, presenting 28 BTS-related programs spanning concerts, variety shows, and films. The network stated that "the power of music connected people's hearts as one," referring to the audience joining in the folk song "Arirang" during the track "Body to Body" from the group's fifth studio album, "ARIRANG."

Japanese media also focused on the "Arirang" chorus immediately after the Tokyo Dome concert. Magazine SPUR commented that "the scene where this song echoed through the venue was a breathtaking sight beyond words," while Real Sound interpreted that the sentiment of the folk song resonated with the meaning of the album.

In May, Mexican media outlet Infobae listed the "Arirang" chorus in "Body to Body" as one of its "10 most memorable moments." Rolling Stone Germany reported in July that more than 70,000 attendees sang "Arirang" at the Munich concert. Le Monde noted that "language barriers were not an issue," reporting that the entire audience followed along singing the Korean-language song.

"Body to Body" is a track that incorporates the melody of the Korean folk song "Arirang" into a modern sound. Following performances in Santiago, Chile on the 14th and from the 16th to the 17th (local time), BTS will continue its South American tour with shows in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and São Paulo, Brazil.
