Fans React to BTS’ Love Yourself World Tour Announcement

Having just recently announced their comeback with their next mini-album Love Yourself: Tear, BTS surprised fans with the news of a worldwide tour in 2018. The band will kick off the tour in August at the Jamsil Olympic Stadium in Seoul, Korea and will continue on to 11 locations spanning Europe and North America, including major cities like London, Amsterdam, Chicago, and Los Angeles.

The tour announcement by BigHit, BTS’s entertainment company, elicited frenzied reactions from fans, especially those in areas where the band will be performing for the first time. During their 2017 WINGS Tour, BTS held shows in Asia, the United States, South America, and Australia, but the Love Yourself Tour will mark their first concerts in Europe.

Understandably, the European ARMY fanbase couldn’t contain their excitement on Twitter:

Rn I don’t what to do with myself rn 😭❤️

THEY’RE COMING!! IM FINALLY WILL BE ABLE TO SEE MY KINGS😭❤️

EUROPEAN ARMYS OUR TIME HAS FINALLY ARRIVED #LOVEYOURSELFTOUR #BTS

Considering BTS’s immense reception by fans around the globe, it’s likely that even the larger venues will sell out quickly, and ARMYs are preparing for the scramble for tickets in the coming weeks.
