South Korean K-pop mega group BTS have suspended their world tour due to the global lockdown.
The seven-member band had already postponed the North American leg of the tour, and canceled a Seoul concert.
Big Hit Entertainment said in a statement-- "Due to the nature of BTS concerts involving travel by thousands of international fans no matter where the performances are held, it is also difficult to resume the tour with the current strict restrictions on cross-border movement still in place." The 'Map of the Soul' tour had concerts scheduled across Europe and Japan.
Big Hit Entertainment said it would give details of a new tour schedule as soon as they were clear.
