BTS Sparks Massive Disruption In Seoul

The K-pop group BTS will hold a free "BTS Comeback Live: ARIRANG" concert on March 21 in Gwanghwamun Square, its first full group performance in three years and nine months, with an estimated 260,000 attendees. The surge has driven accommodation bookings up 450% and sharply higher room rates, prompting government anti-price-gouging measures and police safety plans including station bypasses and crowd partitions.
