No, really, get up. The show starts bright and early. In partnership with Netflix, BTS is live-streaming their first concert back from hiatus on March 21 at 7 a.m. ET in a special called BTS THE COMEBACK LIVE | ARIRANG. The concert will be filmed at Gwanghwamun in Seoul, with ticket information coming soon for those who might plan to travel to South Korea to see the boys in action. The special offers several firsts for those who want to watch it live on the couch. It’s the first Netflix livestream from South Korea and will likely be among the first shows where the group premieres songs from ARIRANG before they embark on a world tour. It might also be one of the earliest Netflix livestreams, as the show starts at 7 a.m. in the States for East Coasters and even earlier at 4 a.m. for those in the Pacific. But if you’re a longtime BTS fan, you might be used to the early call times already.

The livestream will celebrate the release of their new album, ARIRANG, and serve as an appetizer to the upcoming documentary, BTS: THE RETURN, out the following week on March 27. Directed by Bao Nguyen, the documentary follows RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook as they return from military service to Los Angeles, where they reunite to make music together. Per the press release, the film promises to answer “quieter questions” like “how to begin again, how to honor the past without being bound by it, and how to move forward together.”
