As anticipation reaches a fever pitch for BTS’s upcoming Arirang world tour, a major controversy has erupted within the global ARMY community over ticket pricing transparency. Fans have slammed Ticketmaster for allegedly withholding ticket prices ahead of the highly awaited sales, accusing the platform of leaving concertgoers in the dark until the very last moment.
The Arirang tour, set to begin in April 2026, marks BTS’s grand return to the global stage after a long hiatus, making it one of the most sought-after concert tours in recent years. While ticket prices for the South Korean shows were revealed early on, giving fans a rough idea of expected costs, no such clarity was offered for international dates. This lack of information has triggered frustration across social media, with fans demanding greater transparency.
