BTS will kick off the tour on Aug. 25 at Olympic Stadium in Seoul. Tickets for the opening show have yet to go on sale.

BTS also performed to packed houses during the "BTS Live Trilogy Episode III: The Wings Tour" in 2017, covering 19 cities for 40 shows.

BTS made history last week when its "Love Yourself: Tear" album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, making the group the first K-pop act to top the chart. The lead single, "Fake Love," reached No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, becoming the band's first top-10 hit and its best-performing song. (Yonhap)
