BTS' last album release was "Be" in November 2020, which included songs like "Life Goes On" and the Grammy-nominated hit "Dynamite."
Since then the group has followed up with more singles like "Permission to Dance," a remix of "Savage Love," their collaboration with Coldplay "Your Universe" and another Grammy-nominated song, "Butter."
Prior to their concert residency, BTS were at the 64th Grammy Awards — also held in Las Vegas — where they performed "Butter," kicked off by a seemingly flirtatious moment between V and Filipino-American singer Olivia Rodrigo.
