BTS will release their fifth full-length album, 'Arirang,' on the 20th and hold a comeback commemorative live performance at Gwanghwamun Square on the 21st. The performance will feature a 'King's Road' procession, extending from Gyeongbokgung Palace to Gwanghwamun Square.
Additionally, 15 major landmarks in Seoul will be illuminated in red on the day before and the day of the performance. Some have suggested a connection to local elections, claiming the red color symbolizes a particular political party.
