BTS has cancelled the Seoul dates of the tour.
The concerts were scheduled to be the opening nights of the tour April 11, 12, 18 and 19 at Seoul's Olympic Stadium.
A snippet from the press release:
the current global coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak has made it impossible at this time to predict the scale of the outbreak during the dates of the concert in April, alongside increasing uncertainty about the cross-border movement of concert staff and equipment.
The US dates beginning April 25 and 26 in Santa Clara are so far unaffected.
