Immediately after its release on July 18, BTS's first live album "Permission To Dance On Stage" quickly created a global earthquake. In just 24 hours, the album attracted more than 14.5 million streams on Spotify, officially breaking Beyoncé's long-standing record with Homecoming: The Live Album (8.8 million streams). This is not only a resounding milestone for BTS but also a bold push to bring the live album product line, which is considered to be selective in audience, into the "golden era" on digital platforms.

In the era of strong digital music development, it is unprecedented that an album recorded directly from the stage can create such a great influence. With 22 live recordings from the global tour of the same name (2021-2022), Permission To Dance On Stage is not simply a musical product but a declaration of BTS's performance class, love for the stage, and invisible connection with global fans.

Hits like Life Goes On , Butter , Dynamite are performed with sublime vocals, blending with the cheers and explosive energy from the audience, fully recreating the live feeling that is a specialty of the group from Korea. Not stopping at the musical experience, BTS also went big when releasing a special concert video Permission To Dance On Stage - Seoul. Recorded on March 13, 2022 at the Seoul Olympic Stadium, the video brings a sacred moment when the group and tens of thousands of spectators sublimated in a space of brilliant lights. Every move, every expression is recorded sharply, creating the feeling that the viewer is present in that sea of people.

In particular, the physical edition of the album also comes with a 92-page photo book containing behind-the-scenes photos, sharing from the members and a series of never-before-published interviews. This is not only an entertainment product but also a priceless spiritual asset for the ARMY fan community who have accompanied BTS throughout the years interrupted by the pandemic.

The surprises didn't stop there. Less than three weeks before the album's release, all seven BTS members appeared live on Weverse after completing their military service, marking their first full reunion in nearly two years.
