BTS have added an extra date at London’s Wembley Stadium.

There was fan outcry yesterday when many fans failed to secure tickets to the Korean pop group’s Wembley Stadium show on 1 June, which sold out in just 90 minutes.

Live Nation has now confirmed that the record-breaking group will play another date of their “Love Yourself: Speak Yourself” tour on 2 June. Tickets will go on general sale at 8.30am on 8 March.

They will also play Paris’s Stade de France on 7 June.

The “Love Yourself: Speak Yourself” tour kicks off on 4 May at the Rose Bowl Stadium, Los Angeles, California, and will see the group head to Chicago, Brazil and Japan.

Formed of members RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook, BTS have become one of the most popular groups in the world.

Their album Love Yourself: Tear shot to number one in the US Billboard charts and peaked at number eight in the UK.

The concert film Love Yourself in Seoul was released in January for a limited run, but proved so popular that it re-entered cinemas.
