BTS' popularity continues to rise following the successful launch of the K-pop group's latest album "You Never Walk Alone." Recently, the boy band's agency revealed the five tour stops added to the South Korean group's impending "The Wings Tour."

BTS is set to delight avid fans with a series of stage performances to be held in several countries across the globe. Dubbed the "2017 BTS Live Trilogy Episode 3: The Wings Tour," the Kpop group is scheduled to kick-off their world tour with a concert in South Korea before traveling to the United States and other South American countries such as Chile and Brazil.

After a two-day concert to be held in Seoul on Feb. 18 and Feb. 19, BTS will then fly off to Chile's capital Santiago and Brazil's Sao Paolo in March. The septet is then expected to visit several U.S. cities that include Newark, Chicago, and Anaheim.

Meanwhile, BTS' agency Big Hit Entertainment recently announced the addition of five Asian countries to the seven-member band's world concert tour. Apart from the U.S. and South American tour stops, the multi-awarded group will also visit Thailand, Indonesia, China, Philippines, and Australia in the second quarter of the year, Soompi reported.

Avid fans from Bangkok, Manila and Hong Kong can look forward to seeing the Kpop group in two-day performances on April 22 to April 23, May 6 and May 7, as well as May 13 and May 14, respectively. However, BTS will only have one-day shows in Jakarta on April 29 and in Sydney on May 26.

In other news, the band's second studio album reached a new milestone on Billboard. "Wings" is the first K-pop album to retain a spot on Billboard's World Albums list for 18 straight weeks, All Kpop reported.

BTS dropped "Wings" in October 2016, while the K-pop group's new album "You Never Walk Album" was released on Feb. 13.
