This stop is especially meaningful because it made them the first Korean group to hold a stadium concert in America. According to a source, about 40,000 seats are available for the concert at Citi Field, which is larger than any other venues the group has hold concerts before.

Previously, BTS had mentioned their wish to hold an international concert at a stadium during their interview with American press. With the upcoming concert in New York, the group achieves their dream and set another record in K-Pop history.
