BTS is returning to late night.
The K-pop group, consisting of members RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook, has booked their first U.S. late night appearance as a full group since they completed their mandatory military service in Korea. BTS is scheduled for a sit down, in-studio interview and performance for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, which will air Wednesday, March 25 and another song and performance set to air March 26.
BTS’ visits are on the heels of the release of their fifth studio album, Arirang, dropping March 20. To complement the release, they’re also giving a live performance, BTS The Comeback Live | Arirang, streaming March 21 on Netflix. The livestream will also be the first global performance of the album and will be broadcast from Gwanghwamun in Seoul.
“Seven together, we can do anything,” RM says in the trailer’s voiceover. “We promised our fans we’d be back.”
Then, their documentary, BTS: The Return, an “intimate documentary film chronicling the making of the band’s new album,” according to a release, premieres March 27 on the streamer.
The supergroup’s last appearance together on The Tonight Show was on July 2021 during their BTS takeover with performances of “Butter” and “Permission to Dance.” However, Jimin, SUGA, Jung Kook, Jin and j‑hope have each been on individually since then, but their return later this month marks their first one as a group.
BTS’s March 25 Tonight Show episode also features Ariana DeBose, while the March 26 episode includes Chris Pratt and Charlie Day.
