In other BTS news, Big Hit Music announced on April 8 that member Jin will be minimising his participation on all four nights of the Las Vegas concerts, due to a previous injury sustained to his left finger. Despite having gone for surgery, medical personnel have advised Jin to minimise physical activity to prevent a deeper injury from occurring.

“As a result, Jin’s choreography and stage performance will be limited to a certain extent. We ask for your understanding and support from all our fans,” Big Hit Music wrote.

In addition to BTS’ four-night residency at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium, all four dates will be broadcast live to the nearby MGM Grand Garden Arena, in what’s being dubbed a “live play” event. Moreover, the final day of their residency will also be streamed online worldwide, per Billboard.

In addition, the entertainment company has also released a promotional TV spot and poster for the upcoming concerts. The video notably features footage from the boyband’s previous ‘Permission To Dance On Stage’ concerts in 2021.
