After a lifetime of waiting, BTS are finally performing in the UK – and the ARMY are ready.

The K-pop idols are set to perform at Londons O2 Arena tonight and tomorrow (9 and 10 October), their first concerts in the UK.

And the O2 is getting into the spirit of things.

The venue traditionally makes poems or songs out of the lyrics of whoever is playing in the arena – and this week, BTSs back catalogue has been given a remix.

Three poems inspired by BTS song titles have been written on information boards around North Greenwich station, and theyre sure to delight ARMYs lucky enough to get their hands on tickets.

The first reads: The clarity of SINGULARITY and THE TRUTH UNTOLD can help see through FAKE LOVE, if youre searching for PARADISE and lost in a LOVE MAZE, if today isnt hot, SO WHAT, let a raindrop fall like a TEAR, find shelter in a MAGIC SHOP and look forward to brighter days.

The next reads: LOVE can be a SEESAW, looking for an ANSWER, but, its really worth taking a chance.

Sometimes I need to LOVE MYSELF and be my own IDOL, its not TRIVIA, IM FINE if I JUST DANCE.

And the last goes: WINGS may be broken and a TEAR may fall, as you FACE YOURSELF and WONDER about your mental health. THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MOMENT IN LIFE may come when you wake up with an EPIPHANY and realise the ANSWER is you need to LOVE YOURSELF.
Into it.

BTS fans began queuing in the early hours of the morning in the hopes of getting as close to the stage as possible – despite the O2 originally saying queuing would only be accepted after 9am.

RM, Suga, J-Hope, V, Jin, Jungkook and Jimin will perfom songs including IDOL, Save Me and Anpanman at the sold-out show, which follows their historic gig at New Yorks Citi Field stadium.
