K-pop boy band BTS continues its “Love Yourself” world concert tour with four nights in Hong Kong next month, hot on the heels of playing in front of 380,000 adoring fans on the Japanese leg.

BTS plays at AsiaWorld-Arena near the airport on March 20, 21, 23 and 24, before moving on to Thailand for two shows at the Rajamangala National Stadium in Bangkok on April 6 and 7.

BTS played in four major Japanese cities, its management agency said on Monday. The band wrapped up the “Love Yourself – Japan Edition” at Fukuoka’s Yahuoku! Dome on Saturday and Sunday, according to Big Hit Entertainment.

It was the final stop of BTS’ tour of Japan, which began at Tokyo Dome, and later moved on to Osaka and Nagoya.

BTS performed 30 songs during its final concert in Fukuoka, presenting hits such as IDOL, I NEED U, RUN, DNA and FAKE LOVE in Japanese.
