Despite being separated by distance and only meeting virtually, BTS successfully made fans feel close to them. Throughout the concert, RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook focused on their togetherness as a team for seven years.

The members chose not to perform solo songs as they usually do during concerts. Instead, BTS sang together or in various subunits for 90 minutes. Their setlist included songs from their early debut, the rap ballad Just One Day in 2014, to selections from their current hit album, MAP OF THE SOUL: 7.

2. Satisfied Audience

Although netizens were surprised by the price of virtual BTS concert tickets, fans who attended the event expressed that the price they paid was worth what they received for 90 minutes plus an additional 5 minutes.

"I watched it live and I'm really satisfied. They sang Respect and Friends live, they also remixed Go Go and Boy With Luv."

"I paid with my own money, but not a single cent was wasted; starting from the performance of Dope, I knew I wouldn't regret it. This is a concert after a short hiatus and they brought new performances, so I'm really satisfied."

"High-quality performances and an amazing setlist."

"I don't think 30,000 won is that expensive."
