On March 25, fans got a chance to purchase pre-sale tickets to '2016 BTS LIVE 'HwaYangYeonHwa on Stage: Epilogue'!


Ticketing for the upcoming concert, taking place in Olympic Park Gymnastics Arena, caused fierce competition among fans within minutes of being available for sale. All 24,000 pre-sale tickets sold out on the first day, and even led to server shutdowns from overwhelming online traffic!

On the same day of pre-sales, '2016 BTS LIVE HwaYangYeonHwa on Stage: Epilogue' landed a #1 spot on several search engines, proving BTS's ticketing power. 


We wish all of the lucky ARMY's planning to attend the upcoming concerts on May 7 - 8 a great time!
