The group BTS showed off their ticket power.

BTS will hold a performance of 'BTS Permission to Dance on Stage - Seoul' at the Olympic Main Stadium in Jamsil Sports Complex, Seoul on March 10-12. Big Hit Music, the management company, held a pre-order for the concert for the fandom ARMY at 8 pm on the 3rd, and 15,000 seats per episode, a total of 45,000 seats, were sold out in an instant.

Also, at 10 am on the 4th, 'BTS Permission to Dance on Stage - Seoul: Live Viewing' Lotte Cinema live ticket sales of 5,000 seats started running out as soon as seats were sold out.

Not only this. BTS' concert in the US was also sold out as soon as ticket sales began.

On March 2, ticket sales for 'BTS Permission to Dance on Stage-Las Vegas' started on Ticketmaster, an American ticket reservation site. BTS will hold 'BTS Permission to Dance on Stage - Las Vegas' on April 8-9 and April 15-6 at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Allegiant Stadium is a large-scale performance hall with a maximum capacity of 65,000 people. The size of the audience may vary according to the COVID-19 quarantine rules, but the popularity of BTS was once again realized as all seats for the 4th concert were sold out only with pre-orders for fan clubs.

BTS will attend the '64th Grammy Awards' held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on April 3. They were nominated for the 'Best Pop Duo/Group Performance' category following last year.

NewJeans' Minji touched fans' hearts with a handwritten letter on her birthday — even while the group is currently unable to promote due to legal issues.

On May 7, Minji celebrated her birthday by sharing a heartfelt message on the group’s personal SNS account, which the members opened themselves to stay connected with fans.

Minji began her letter with honesty, writing, “I think I’m living a busier life than I expected. When I finally looked up, it was already May, and it was my birthday.”

She admitted that she had a lot she wanted to say, but her thoughts felt “messy.” Still, her message to fans was clear, “I just hope that I, our members, and Bunnies can all be happy. Happiness is the biggest goal in my life.”

Minji then opened up about her personal journey and struggles, saying, “I sometimes think that running toward my happiness by doing what I love might look foolish to others. But isn’t giving up your happiness now for the sake of a future that might not even come… too harsh on yourself?”

Despite everything, she ended on a hopeful note, “I really miss the times when we shared our feelings through the good music we made together. But I always look forward to what’s ahead."

She added, "We didn’t stop here, and we’re not going to stop! It might look like we’re standing still, but I believe we’re growing deeper.”

Her message comes during a difficult time for NewJeans. The group announced last year that they were cutting ties with ADOR, their original agency, after trust was broken. They later began working independently under the new name ‘NJZ’.

However, ADOR responded with legal action — claiming the exclusive contract with NewJeans was still valid and asking the court to stop the group from promoting or signing deals.

The court sided with ADOR and granted an injunction, forcing NewJeans to pause their activities. Their appeal was rejected, and they’ve now filed a second appeal.

Through it all, Minji’s message proves one thing — even when forced to stop, NewJeans' hearts are still moving forward.
