K-pop group BTS – RM, Jin, SUGA, j‑hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook — will make its first U.S. late-night appearance next week since completing mandatory military service. Two appearances, actually: The Grammy-nominated group will appear on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday, March 25, and Thursday, March 26.
BTS will sit down for an in-studio interview and perform two songs – the interview and first song will air Wednesday and the second song the next day.
The group’s visit will follow the release of their fifth studio album, Arirang on March 20 and the global live performance BTS: The Comeback Live/Arirang, streaming March 21 on Netflix. The feature documentary, BTS: The Return premieres March 27 on Netflix.
BTS last performed on The Tonight Show during their BTS takeover in July 2021, which scored nearly 120 million digital views and featured performances of “Butter” and “Permission to Dance.” While Jimin, SUGA, Jung Kook, Jin and j‑hope have each appeared individually since then, next week’s episodes mark the group’s return to the show together.
The March 25 episode also will feature Ariana DeBose. Chris Pratt and Charlie Day are set to appear on the March 26 episode.
The Tonight Show airs at 11:35 p.m. ET/PT on NBC and streams the next day on Peacock.
