≡ BTS' Global Stadium Tour Grosses $79 Mln: Billboard
K-pop sensation BTS has sold more than 606,000 tickets on its global stadium tour "Love Yourself: Speak Yourself."
According to Billboard and figures reported to Billboard Boxscore, the results are "staggering" as the South Korean megastars grossed 44 million dollars from six shows that started in the U.S. in May.
They earned an additional 35 million dollars with shows in Europe and South America through June 8th.
BTS will continue its stadium tour in two Japanese cities next month.
The Hyundai Research Institute, a Seoul-based economic think tank, said in a recent report that the group's agency, Big Hit Entertainment, is estimated to have become a unicorn startup with a valuation of 1 billion dollars or more.■[2019.06.19]
