BTS’s online concert ‘MAP OF THE SOUL ON: E’ is ‘Dynamite’, which topped the Billboard singles chart for debut song ‘No More Dream’. It was the crystallization of the last 7 years of history. The regret of not being able to breathe with ARMY (BTS fans) on the scene due to Corona 19 was supplemented by advanced technologies such as augmented reality (AR) and extended reality (XR). For a total of 24 songs and a 160-minute performance, BTS and ARMY had to feel both joy and regret that ‘we can meet like this’.
“At this concert, I updated myself and met the faces and voices of ARMY on screen. In that sense, scream! ”(Jin)
At the concert held on the 10th, the members performed various performances moving four big stages according to the song. It was planned to cost 8 times more to produce than ‘Bangbangcon The Live’, the first paid online concert to be held at the Weverse Shop in June. One of the things that differentiated this concert from ‘Bangbangcon’ is that the members on stage were able to meet the fans in real time cheering on “BTS” through the mosaic screen around the stage. In the second half of V’s solo stage ‘Inner Child’, an online ‘Techang’ of fans around the world filled the stage. It is an attempt to overcome the limitations created by implementing online gigs with advanced technology.
On the one hand, as it was an online concert, a different show was displayed. Leader RM’s solo performance ‘Persona’ implemented ‘Giant RM’, which appeared in the official trailer video, in 3D, and showed a direction that makes eye contact with the real RM singing a song. In ‘Dope’, a giant elevator-shaped stage is depicted traveling through the snow, desert and forest at high speed. On the last song ‘We are Bulletproof: the Eternal’, a ‘surreal’ composition was attempted in which a cuboid containing the faces of fans embroidered the entire place with numerous army bombs (official cheering sticks).
As originally planned for a stadium tour around the world, the content was as solid as the scale. The composition covering the 7-year history of BTS was highlighted. Recent album <맵 오브 더 솔: 7>The composition of opening the stage with the title song ‘ON’ and immediately singing the opening piece ‘NO’, which became the basis of this song, made us reflect on the time that passed before becoming a star. global. As Jimin presented at the end of the performance, “A song that made it possible to sing in a wider world (‘DNA’), a song known to the public about the existence of BTS and ARMY (‘Dope’), a song that came to the world for the first time with a dream (When ‘No More Dream’) ”was performed one after another, the atmosphere peaked.
At the end of the performance, RM encouraged him to say, “BTS won’t be seven, but it will be the story of you, me, and all of us.” “We will march together forever, singing different stories in different languages.” The audience for the online concert held over two days on October 11 is expected to exceed 750,000 at the latest ‘Bangbangcon’. During the performance of this day, only the support messages collected online exceeded 100 million.
