Over 250,000 fans congregated in Seoul on Saturday to witness BTS’ comeback show, an audience that set the record for the largest-ever public concert in South Korea.

While only 22,000 fans were given a “Golden Ticket” in the designated seating area at the group’s first full gig in four years, over 10 times that many more gathered in the vicinity to watch the free concert on video screens, CNN reports.

The Comeback Live – Arirang, which also streamed live on Netflix, featured the debut performance of eight songs off BTS’ just-released new album Arirang — including “Body to Body,” “Aliens,” “Normal,” and “2.0” — as well as the group’s past hits like “Dynamite,” “Butter,” and “Mic Drop.”
