Frankly speaking, if this tour was done in 2022, when BTS' popularity was at its height , there would have been no Taylor Swift being selected as the Person of the Year by the Time Magazine in 2023.
For what did Bang throw away world domiatnion ? So he could show himself among the tycoons of Korea?
I will compare the Eras Tour and the BTS 2026 tour

(TS did not go to Korea, and the Korean venues will be half capacity. Even at 360 degrees the bullshit goyang stadium can only put 40,000 in.)
I thought there would be a comparison but there would not be one so I stop here.
