Highest-grossing engagement by non-English Language Artist

BTS SoFi Stadium concerts show the highest-grossing engagement since the world re-open concert venues. Moreover, it is also the #1 highest-grossing run of shows at a single venue since a decade after Roger Water’s nine-show run in 2012 in Buenos Aires, Argentina).

Other concerts, including the ones from countries outside North America, that achieved higher gross in Billboard Boxscore history were minimum of at least eight shows. It means that BTS SoFi shows the highest-gross engagement with the shortest shows.

Additionally, BTS becomes the first non-English-language artist to earn more than US$20 million in one engagement.

ARMY shared their excitement at the news. They even speculate that this is the beginning of the BTS world tour after canceling the previous tour due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

“This is the end of our concert in LA. But this is definitely not our end. This moment makes me so sad, but it was so fun and so precious. I’m confused how I feel right now. This is not our last show. This is just a beginning. So, we will keep seeing you.”

Not only that, but ARMY also guess that BTS will release a new album ahead of the ‘world tour,’ probably in January or February.

Wait.. Okay so you guys know how BTS basically said its only the beginning? So they're starting concerts (maybe tour) in march again, what if they do the places from the cancelled MOTS tour? It would start with Seoul again pic.twitter.com/3fMAjaHgsK
