New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Following the explosive success of their No.1 single "Dynamite," global superstars BTS are again pairing up with Kiswe and Big Hit Entertainment to serenade virtual audiences with their new two day online concert, "BTS MAP OF THE SOUL ON:E".
This marks the latest collaborative effort between Big Hit, BTS and Kiswe since "BANG BANG CON The Live" earned the Guinness World Record for most viewers for a music concert live stream.
Broadcast from Seoul using Kiswe's "multi-view" live streaming technology, "BTS MAP OF THE SOUL ON:E" will reach fans around the world on October 10 and 11.
BTS will work with Kiswe to create an interactive concert experience for audiences around the globe, leveraging visual features such as 4K resolution, AR and XR.

"BTS continues to push the envelope for what's possible for virtual concerts in the era of COVID-19 and beyond," said Kiswe CEO Mike Schabel. "We're excited to help loyal fans around the globe experience their music in new and ever-more immersive ways."
Big Hit Entertainment added, "We have prepared never-before-seen stages and various setlists for fans who must have felt disappointed by the cancellation of offline concerts due to COVID-19. Some songs will also be given variations across the two days. We hope you look forward to "BTS MAP OF THE SOUL ON:E"."
Their new album "BE (Deluxe Edition)" slated for November 20 is now available for pre-order.
