BTS Surprise Songs from the ARIRANG World Tour So Far
The world of music has always thrived on anticipation, but for fans of BTS, anticipation has become an art form. As the group embarks on their ARIRANG World Tour, they aren’t just delivering performances; they are staging nightly surprises that keep the fanbase buzzing long after the final note fades.
Four years after their last major group performances, BTS is hitting the road with an incredible journey that honors their legacy. Supporting their Billboard 200 No. 1 album, ARIRANG, this tour is designed to ensure that every moment spent with the audience is filled with unforgettable, unexpected joy.
The secret ingredient? The encore.
Since kicking off the tour in Goyang Stadium on April 9th, BTS has turned every performance into a treasure hunt. During their encore segments, the band surprises fans with previously unheard songs, ranging across their entire career. The setlist itself is packed, featuring sixteen main songs and seven encore tracks, two of which shift nightly, making every show a unique musical adventure.
These surprise moments are a delightful mix of nostalgia and fresh discovery. Fans get to witness familiar hits like “Take Two” alongside deep cuts from their earlier singles like “I NEED U.” The surprises run the gamut, pulling tracks from the Billboard Hot 100 chart and even bringing back older gems, such as “Crystal Snow,” which fans have been eagerly awaiting to hear live again.
The excitement among the ARMY community is palpable. Fans are thrilled by the possibility of hearing beloved tracks performed live for the very first time, leading many to track every surprise song the band unveils with keen anticipation.
As BTS continues their massive 85-date, 34-city world tour, this tradition of musical generosity will continue. Billboard and setlist.fm are keeping a running list of these surprise tracks, ensuring that the excitement remains part of the ongoing story.
