BTS' ARIRANG Tour: Surprise Songs Delight Fans Nightly

BTS has launched an exciting surprise element into their ARIRANG World Tour, which began on April 9, 2026, at Goyang Stadium in Goyang-si, South Korea. Fans are being treated to unexpected songs during every encore performance, adding an extra layer of excitement to the already extensive setlist. The tour boasts 16 main performance tracks, complemented by seven encore songs, two of which are rotated nightly.

This strategy involves performing a wide array of songs from BTS's discography, including major hits like "Take Two" and older singles such as "I NEED U." The band is also revisiting tracks not played live in nearly a decade, like "Crystal Snow," and has even given certain songs, such as "Save ME," their live debut on this tour. These surprise performances have generated significant buzz among fans, with many actively documenting which songs are played each night.
