BTS Concert Drives Foreign Hotel Bookings in Busan

Foreign tourists are flooding Busan hotels ahead of BTS's June 12-13 concert, with bookings skyrocketing compared to last year. At one luxury hotel, foreigners now make up 42% of reservations (up from just 0.2% last year), while another hotel reports 70% foreign guests during the concert dates. The surge is turning the concert into a major economic boost for the city beyond just the music.
