BTS perform during the GRAMMY Awards on April 3, 2022. Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for The Recording Academy BTS will celebrate the release of their upcoming comeback album Arirang with a grand return to late-night television. The band will perform two songs and sit down for an interview on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in the days following the album’s release.
BTS’ first Tonight Show appearance in nearly five years will air on March 25 and 26. The first episode to run will include the interview and one song, while the other performance will be saved for the following night. It’s the same double-performance schedule the show deployed in 2021, when BTS performed both “Permission to Dance” and “Butter.”
To put into context how much time has passed since BTS were last fully active as a band: Their most recent late-night appearance was on James Corden’s The Late Late Show, which aired its final episode in 2023.
