BTS held their concert at the Asiad Main Stadium in Busan on June 12 amid significant delays and organizational problems. HYBE issued an official apology, and members Jimin and Jungkook later apologized to fans during a Weverse livestream. The incidents have drawn strong reactions from ARMYs who blame venue and city management.
The concert was scheduled to start at 7 PM but began well after 8 PM due to entry procedure issues and gift distribution problems. HYBE posted an apology on social media stating it sincerely apologized for the significant inconvenience caused by the delayed start.
Jimin and Jungkook addressed fans afterward. Jimin said the circumstances at the venue were not very good and they were sorry, adding they did not know exactly what went wrong but had asked organizers to prevent repeats. Jungkook also apologized on behalf of BigHit.
Fans expressed frustration online that the members had to apologize for issues they did not cause. Multiple accounts pointed to poor crowd control, shortages of wristbands and gifts, mixed merchandise lines, and problems with the Face Pass entry system as major factors. Several noted similar issues occurred at a prior Busan concert.
