BTS's 'Bang Bang Con 2021' Online Concert Exceeds 2.7 Million Simultaneous Viewers

BTS's "Bang Bang Con 2021" has drawn countless viewers around the world exceeding 2.7 million simultaneous viewers.

Big Hit Music sees it as the biggest number of viewers that watched at the same time ever since the launch of "Bang Bang Con" last April 2020. They said that while BTS realized the "contact-free generation" because of the COVID-19 pandemic, they created a new performance community with online simulcast entertainment.

The Bang Bang Con is a free virtual affair in which the BTS telecast their past concerts and meeting with fans. It is the boy band's third session in the middle of the Coronavirus pandemic. Due to the unfortunate situation the whole world is experiencing, the Korean male group was compelled to cancel and postpone all of the slated dates of their "Map of the Soul" world tour last year. The said event, which was held after two days, was a big hit. It recorded an amazing peak of 2.24 million concurrent viewers. 

BTS's "Bang Bang Con 2021" concert took eight hours. It made their fans recall by watching online three of their previous concerts. These include "BTS Live Trilogy Episode I: BTS Begins" (Seoul concert), "BTS 5th Muster [Magic Shop]" (meeting with fans in Busan), and the BTS World Tour "Love Yourself: Speak Yourself" (Sao Paulo, Brazil concert).

During the BTS's " Bang Bang Con 2021,'' group members commence with a jest clip in which they jovially informed viewers that they could bring any food or drinks they like into the concert place. 

Moreover, "Bang Bang Con 2021" accomplished 22,248,241 views from ARMY's who watched their well-liked Korean pop male group's performance. This free online concert enabled fans to revel in many of BTS's pre-pandemic concerts from past years in the safety and comfort of their own homes.
