BTS is giving fans permission to dance at the band’s first concert in years — so long as they do it safely.

In posts on Weverse on Thursday (March 19), both RM and Jin reminded ARMY to stay alert and compliant with safety precautions ahead of the group’s highly anticipated comeback concert at Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul. “Everyone in ARMY! We are also very excited to meet you,” wrote RM, according to Weverse’s English translation. “As it is a gathering place for many people, please make sure that everyone can enjoy the performance safely and joyfully.”

“Please follow the guidance of the field staff and safety personnel on the day and show an orderly appearance,” he continued. “I think a better performance can be completed only when there is order and consideration made by each ARMY. I would like to say thank you so much to the police officers who are working hard for safety, as well as to the fire department, the government and local governments.”

On his page, Jin wrote, “There’s only one day left until our comeback.”

“It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to greet you all together in a meaningful place, and I want to say thank you so much to those who helped and everyone who understood,” he continued before echoing RM’s plea. “We’ll do our best to show great performances! If you’re watching on the spot, please pay attention to your safety!”

The members’ messages come one day after Seoul raised its terror alert by one step, elevating it to the second-lowest level on a four-step scale, according to The Guardian. The city expects up to 260,000 people to crowd the surrounding area of BTS’ free performance at Gwanghwamun Square on Saturday (March 21), which will celebrate new album ARIRANG dropping the day prior.

As previously reported by Billboard Korea, Seoul will position 6,500 police officers, 70 riot control units and 5,400 pieces of specialized equipment on the scene on the day of the show.

BTS hasn’t performed as a group since October 2022, when the septet performed in Busan as part of South Korea’s bid to host the World Expo in 2023. Shortly afterward, the members staggered their enlistments in the military to carry out their mandatory service periods while working on solo projects as well.

After the comeback show in Seoul — which will be livestreamed on Netflix for ARMY who can’t attend in person — the Bangtan Boys will travel to New York City to perform and answer fan questions as part of a Spotify event on March 23. Two days later, the bandmates will appear on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon for their first late-night interview as a group since completing their time in the military. They’ll also perform songs from ARIRANG on back-to-back episodes of the program.
