BTS announce online concerts during lockdown

K-pop boyband BTS announce plans to broadcast BANG BANG CON concerts online for free next week.

K-pop band BTS have announced plans to broadcast a series of concerts online for free next week.

The eight-piece boyband have been forced to cancel the North American leg of their 'Map of the Soul' tour due to the coronavirus pandemic, which has forced most of the world's population into home isolation.

To help fill the time, BTS will broadcast the BANG BANG CON concerts for fans on YouTube next weekend, April 18 and 19.

The full lineup of shows was revealed on the group's official Twitter account.

The streams will begin at 12pm KST - 4am in the UK - next Saturday and Sunday.
