BTS are returning with a huge comeback event and Netflix will be streaming it live to fans around the world.

After years of solo projects, military service and plenty of anticipation from fans, BTS are officially returning as a full group, and they’re doing it in a huge way. The global K-pop superstars will perform their comeback show “BTS The Comeback Live | ARIRANG” on March 21, 2026, streaming live worldwide on Netflix.

The event will take place at Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul, one of the city’s most iconic landmarks, and will mark the first time the seven members have performed together on stage since their hiatus.

For fans around the world, it’s shaping up to be one of the biggest music moments of the year.

The comeback show comes just one day after the release of BTS’ new album ARIRANG, which drops on March 20, 2026.

It will be the group’s first major release since their break in 2022, when the members paused group activities to complete South Korea’s mandatory military service while also exploring solo careers. Over the last few years, members including Jung Kook, Jimin, RM, SUGA, V, Jin and j-hope have all released successful solo projects, but fans have been waiting for the moment the group would finally reunite.

Now that moment is here.

The live performance will stream exclusively on Netflix at 8 PM KST on March 21, which translates to 11 AM GMT in the UK.

Because it’s on Netflix, the event will be available in over 190 countries, giving fans everywhere a front-row seat to BTS’ long-awaited return.

The show is expected to include the first live performances of songs from ARIRANG, along with some of the group’s biggest hits.

BTS have become one of the biggest music acts in the world since their debut in 2013, breaking streaming records, topping global charts and selling out stadiums across multiple continents. Their music blends pop, hip-hop and R&B influences, while their lyrics often tackle themes like identity, growth and mental health.

The Netflix event will also be followed by a documentary titled BTS: The Return, arriving on the platform on March 27, 2026. The film will give fans a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the new album and the band’s journey back together after their hiatus.

Unsurprisingly, excitement around the event is huge. Social media has already been flooded with speculation about the setlist, surprise appearances and whether the show will reveal more about BTS’ next chapter.

The comeback concert is also expected to kick off a major world tour, which could see the group performing across Asia, Europe and North America later in 2026 and beyond.
