Tens of thousands of fans gathered in Seoul, South Korea, to celebrate K-Pop band BTS’s comeback to music. 

The band returned after four years with a free comeback concert, which was exclusively streamed on Netflix worldwide.

All seven members of the band, RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook, returned to the stage after recently completing South Korea’s mandatory military service

"Annyeonghaseyo! We're back," RM told the crowd.

The hour-long concert came after the group released its fifth album on Friday, Arirang.

The performance also launched their upcoming global tour, which will visit the United States, Europe, and Asia.
