BTS fans are bracing themselves for a 'bloodbath', after the smash-hit band announced a mega world tour for 2026 and 2027.
Fans have been waiting patiently for the K-pop superstars to tour, and their prayers have been answered with special 360-degree, in-the-round stage shows.
It's set to be a busy year for the band too, as the upcoming run consists of 79 live shows across a whopping 34 regions, and they'll be calling in at the Stanford Stadium for two dates on May 16 and 17, 2026.
The upcoming tour is to celebrate an as-yet-untitled new album in March and of course, demand for tickets is high.
In the countdown to the shows, fans have been sharing their fears about the ticket-buying process, with one predicting an 'absolute bloodbath'.
All's fair in love and war as one fan joked (we think): "Hate all of you until my tickets are secured."
"I'm not ready for the bloodbath that this is going to be and I've had years to prepare!" another vented, adding: "Ticketing for BTS has always been crazy. Getting my tissues ready because I know I will be STRESSED."
