BTS Comeback Performance and Documentary Coming to Netflix
Attention Army – BTS is back! Netflix and HYBE have announced a global livestream of BTS The Comeback Live | Arirang, along with a feature-length documentary chronicling BTS’s return.
BTS The Comeback Live | Arirang will stream live exclusively on Netflix March 21, 2026, at 8 pm KST (4 am PST / 7 am EST). Streaming live from the historic Gwanghwamun in Seoul, this monumental performance celebrates the release of their highly anticipated new album, Arirang.
Netflix has partnered with HYBE to bring the pop royalty back to the stage for this unprecedented, historic worldwide comeback event. BTS members RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook reunite on the global stage for the first time.
This event follows the announcement of BTS’s new album and world tour. According ot Netflix, BTS’s fifth studio album, Arirang, “is a deeply reflective body of work that explores their identity and roots.”
After the album release, the band will embark on a major Arirang World Tour (2026–2027), spanning 34 regions and 82 shows across Asia, North and Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, and beyond.
Netflix will also debut BTS: The Return, a BTS documentary film showcasing the making of their newest comeback album, which arrives on Netflix on March 27, 2026. This feature-length documentary chronicles the long-awaited return of the South Korean boy band.
From acclaimed director Bao Nguyen (The Stringer, The Greatest Night in Pop) and renowned producers This Machine (Martha, Karol G) and HYBE, the film offers unprecedented access, following BTS as they come back together to begin a reunion set to be etched in pop culture history, while reflecting on the journey that transformed seven Korean members into global icons.
Since their debut in 2013, BTS built one of the most devoted fan communities in the world. After completing South Korea’s mandatory military service, the seven members reunite in Los Angeles to make music together, returning to a shared creative space shaped by time apart and personal change.
As millions of fans await the comeback of the decade, BTS confronts quieter questions: how to begin again, how to honor the past without being bound by it, and how to move forward together. Through moments of doubt, laughter, and rediscovery, they create new music that reflects who they are now—culminating in a landmark album of its time.
Intimate, emotional, and often joyful, BTS: The Return is a story only BTS can tell: a portrait of resilience, brotherhood, and reinvention.
BTS The Comeback Live | Arirang marks an expansion of Netflix’s live programming, becoming the first-ever live event broadcast from Korea to be livestreamed globally. This latest addition follows a robust lineup of live events, including Skyscraper Live, Star Search, Jake vs Joshua, WWE Raw, NFL Christmas Gameday, Paul vs Tyson, Canelo vs Crawford, Six Kings Slam, and more.
Looking ahead, Netflix’s live slate includes MLB games, the FIFA Women’s World Cup, and The Actor Awards.
