As a long-time fan from Delhi, I'm thrilled but also a bit worried about the ticketing for the world tour. The last time they came, it was a nightmare to get passes. I hope they add more shows in India this time, maybe in Mumbai and Delhi. The documentary sounds fascinating though.
Interesting to see the album is titled 'Arirang'. That's a traditional Korean folk song, right? It shows they are going back to their roots. Respect for completing their military service like all Korean men. It's a good lesson in duty. Looking forward to the music.
While I'm happy for the fans, I can't help but feel our own Indian music industry and artists need this level of global platform and investment. We have incredible talent that deserves Netflix documentaries and worldwide live streams too. Just a thought.
My daughter is a huge ARMY. She's already planning a viewing party. It's nice to see positive global news for a change. The discipline and work ethic of these boys is commendable. Wishing them all the best for their comeback! 💜
82 shows across the world is massive. I really hope they include a proper India leg, not just a single show. The economic impact for the host city would be huge. Our live event infrastructure needs to be ready to attract such global acts.
