BTS released their first-ever live album, “Permission to Dance on Stage – Live,” on Friday, July 18. at 1 p.m.
The album captures vivid memories of the group’s performances during its “Permission to Dance on Stage” tour in 2021 to 2022. Performances from Seoul, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas feature on the album.
Marking the group’s first official concert album since debut, it includes 22 tracks featuring megahits such as “Dynamite,” “Butter” and “Permission to Dance.” Several tracks were newly arranged for the tour, offering the audience fresh takes on fan favorites. “Fire” and “Idol” are reimagined with more intense sounds, while “Dynamite” and “Butter” have been infused with brass sections for an upbeat, festive feel.
