The group promised to see the fans soon as they are working hard so they can meet again on stage.

“BTS has been a group for six and half years, and throughout those years, so many of our dreams somehow manifest into reality,” RM said in his speech. “And ARMY, you guys are the ones who make all of this possible. We really couldn’t have done it without your love and support from all over the world.”
