SEVENTEEN @ THE BMO STADIUM

K-pop supergroup SEVENTEEN made their highly anticipated return to Los Angeles this weekend, performing two sold-out nights at BMO Stadium. Out of the 13 members, nine took the stage, with four currently fulfilling their mandatory military service. Despite the smaller lineup, the group’s energy, connection, and musical precision were undeniable. The setlist followed the tour’s established lineup, but fans were treated to several surprises — including a heartfelt moment from Joshua, who shared, “I was just a regular person, meet somebody,” reflecting the group’s humble roots and the genuine bond they share with their devoted fandom, known as Carats.

Carats, known for their warmth and loyalty, filled the stadium with lightsticks and chants that matched the group’s decade-long legacy. Performing back-to-back sold-out shows in Los Angeles two years in a row marks a major milestone for SEVENTEEN, who first brought their Be The Sun world tour to the city in 2022. The night’s emotional peak came when leader S.Coups spoke about the group’s desire to perform again with all thirteen members present, tying into ongoing conversations about contract renewals and SEVENTEEN’s commitment to staying together as one.

Fans were also treated to special performances outside the standard setlist, including “Ready to Love,” a track rarely performed during the U.S. leg of their tours, along with songs like “Spell” and “Don Quixote.” These additions made the night even more personal for American Carats, who have long hoped to hear these fan favorites live. As the confetti settled and the cheers echoed through BMO Stadium, it was clear that SEVENTEEN’s bond with their fans — and their promise to stay together — remains stronger than ever.
