    BTS Arirang Tour Kicks Off and Hot Ones Heats Up Apr 09, 2026
    Show notes

    BTS Arirang World Tour is officially here! BTS kicked off the Arirang World Tour last night in Goyang, South Korea, and from the opening number it was clear: this comeback is everything ARMY has been waiting for (and yes, water is wet — boy was there water). BTS also stopped by Hot Ones to take on the wings of death, and let's be real… did the final two standing surprise anyone? After years of a trickle, BTS content is straight-up Niagara Popo right now. It's good to be ARMY, y'all.

    Show notes

    BTS is back baby. And guess what? Your Afternoona Army co-hosts have no notes. This is a 10/10 no skips album for us. Dive in as we record at 5am immediately following the Netflix Comeback Concert (and coming full circle from our other recording immediately post Yet To Come Busan). We get into Jimin's extensions, Namjoon's BDE, Jin's confidence, Hobi's swag, Jungkook's Golden Maknae, V's immaculate vibes, and Yoongi's mic drop. Swim with us through the content. We aren't normal. See what we did there?

    And Army, remember...listen to Arirang top to bottom and make sure to stream SWIM! Let's make this return one for the record books! Here is a SWIM-focused playlist. Fighting!

    Friends in Bangtan...

    Well, we've made it. Half the world is already in 2026, and your hosts today (Lia and Megan) are almost there. 2026 = BTS Year. For many ARMY, it will be our first big OT7 comeback. It's time to start adjusting eyes and blinking around at this new purple-hued world. Join us for a quick recap on the most famous cat reveal in history (3 cats hard launched this month), and a round up on member news. Also, it's been noted Namjoon can't stop/won't stop referencing Ddaeng. Is our spoiler king coming through with a new year treat? Get in the clown car, baby. Time to ride.
