Over 18 million streamed BTS concert on Netflix

The live audience figures may have been somewhat disappointing - but on Netflix, the K-pop band BTS's comeback concert was a success. More than 18 million viewers worldwide watched the broadcast from Seoul.

In a statement, Netflix said that 18.4 million people watched the concert from Gwanghwamun Square via the streaming service. That is certainly encouraging news for the band, as the live audience was much lower than expected.

The record company stated that 104,000 attended the concert, while the police estimate was around 42,000. Beforehand, it was estimated that around 260,000 would gather.

BTS took a break in 2022 to complete the mandatory military service required of men in South Korea.
