SEOUL, April 8 (Yonhap) -- K-pop superstar BTS announced Wednesday that it will add three concerts to the Latin American leg of its "Arirang" world tour in October.
The group said on the K-pop fan community platform Weverse that it will stage one additional show each in Lima, Peru; Santiago, Chile; and Buenos Aires, Argentina. The additions bring its total number of performances in the region to 14 across five countries, which also include Colombia and Brazil.
