DUBAI: K-Pop boy band BTS has announced that they are set to perform an online concert event on April 17.
However, some fans are not quite happy with the timing of the concert, titled “Bang Bang Con 2021,” that happens to be during Ramadan.
Instagram users quickly took to the platform to comment on the South Korean band’s post saying: “Please don’t make it in the time of RAMADAN because Muslim armies can’t watch it (sic).”
“Not during Ramadan,” wrote one fan, while another said: “We as Muslims have to fast in the month of Ramadan, sorry I can’t follow, later.”
However, not all fans were left disappointed. Some took to social media to express their delight.
“I change my dentist appointment. The power of BTS in my life. April 17 block off in my calendar (sic),” said one user on Twitter.
Another fan tweeted: “April 17 ARMYS - aren't we all so lucky to have @BTS_twt?”
This event is the South Korean band’s third online concert since the COVID-19 pandemic hit.
“Bang Bang Con 2021” will be streamed on BTS’s YouTube channel.
In April 2020, the seven-member band presented a two-day streaming event that featured an online performance and clips from fan meetings.
Two months later, in June, the group held their first paid online gig “Bang Bang Con: The Live,” which attracted more than 756,000 fans from over 100 countries. They achieved a new Guinness World Record title for the most viewers for a music concert live stream due to that event.
