BTS world tour cancelled due to ongoing pandemic

K-Pop's biggest group won't be touring after all.

CNN reports BTS's "Map of the Soul Tour" has been canceled for now.

Record label Big Hit Music made the announcement in a statement posted on the fan platform Weverse.

This was also verified by multiple outlets.

The tour was originally announced in January 2020 and slated to begin in April 2020.

But it was postponed in light of the Covid-19 pandemic.

In the interim the group performed in pay per view online concerts as well as on the 2021 Grammys and released new singles including "Dynamite" and "Butter."

But the ongoing pandemic has halted live performances for the time being.
