Bang Bang Con originated last April after the band’s tour was canceled, in response to COVID-19’s effect on the music industry. This year, the lineup includes the 2015 BTS Live Trilogy: Episode I, which is old concert footage, as well as a global fanmeet, BTS 5th Muster Magic Shop which took place in 2019. Lastly, the event will show footage from BTS World Tour Love Yourself: Speak Yourself, held in Brazil in 2019. Fans will be able to stream the at-home concert experience for free on BangtanTV.
BTS fans, ARMY, are highly anticipating the second annual Bang Bang Con. They cannot wait to see the new BTS content that will be shared. ARMYs have taken to Twitter to share their excitement with the hashtag #BANGBANGCON21, creating their own fan art for the event and making the most out of the virtual concert experience.
