Fans were obviously excited about the prospect of seeing their stars travelling far and wide and went gaga over the latest pictures.

However, it hasn't been a smooth ride. The group have been criticised for choosing to perform in a country which has a questionable human rights record. BTS decided to perform anyway and revealed that it wasn't an easy decision to make. RM had told The Hollywood Reporter last week, "I wouldn’t say it was easy. But we were officially invited. It’s been a while since we’ve performed in the Middle East."
Not just BTS, but various stars like Mariah Carey, Enrique Iglesias, Nicki Minaj and Sean Paul have been invited in the past to perform in Saudi as The Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman is trying to present Saudi Arabia as the best tourist destination.
