BTS will share a behind-the-scenes look at the group’s visit to Mexico’s National Palace, a major public moment that drew an estimated 50,000 fans to the Zócalo.

During the visit, President Claudia Sheinbaum hosted the seven members for a 40-minute meeting, and the Mexican government honored them as Distinguished Visitors. BTS also received a commemorative plaque recognizing their influence on young people and their message of respect, empathy, diversity, and peace.

After the meeting, the group appeared with Sheinbaum on a balcony overlooking the packed square. Fans filled Mexico City’s main public plaza, turning the official visit into one of the largest public BTS moments in the country.

The appearance came ahead of BTS’s Mexico City dates on the Arirang World Tour, tied to the group’s 2026 comeback album of the same name. The new behind-the-scenes feature is expected to give fans a closer look at the palace visit, the official welcome, and the crowd’s response.
