BTS brought their smooth dance moves and pitch-perfect vocals to Los Angeles on Saturday and Sunday night, performing to two sold-out crowds at SoFi Stadium.

The shows were just the start of their four-night takeover of the 70,000-capacity venue, which continues on Dec. 1 and Dec. 2. Members RM, Jin, V, J-Hope, Suga, Jimin and Jungkook lit up the stadium as they performed their biggest hits over the span of two hours, complete with stellar production and several outfit changes.

Variety‘s Angelique Jackson, who covered night one of the tour, praised BTS for their interaction with the crowd, writing: “The group found a safe way to interact with as many fans as possible, moving beyond their stage (which extended midway through the floor section) and onto mobile platforms to “surf” through the crowd into the far end of the arena. During their performance of “Telapathy” BTS split onto two separate pods that were pushed around the outer rim of the floor seats in order to give the second level of Army a better view of their performance before meeting again on the other side.”
