If you’ve been counting down the days like the rest of ARMY, the wait is finally over. On July 1, 2025, BTS officially reunited as a full group for the first time since 2022, and the news they dropped has the entire fandom buzzing with excitement, tears, and hope.
Let’s break down everything that’s going on in the BTS universe right now—because it’s a lot.
🌸 2026 Comeback Confirmed: Album + World Tour
Yes, you read that right. During a surprise Weverse livestream (which, no joke, had over 7.3 million people watching), the boys revealed that they are working on a full group album, scheduled for release in spring 2026. But that’s not all—a global tour is in the works, too. This will be their first tour as OT7 since “Permission to Dance on Stage.”
Each member shared how deeply personal this next chapter will be. After everything—military service, solo projects, personal growth—they’re bringing all of that experience into the studio.
This isn’t just a comeback. It’s a reunion of hearts.
💬 V Opens Up About Military Struggles
While in Paris for a CELINE appearance, Kim Taehyung (V) went live late at night and dropped a quiet but emotional confession:
“I don’t sleep like I used to. Even the smallest noise wakes me.”
His words gave fans a rare glimpse into the toll military life has taken. ARMYs flooded the chat with support, reminding Taehyung that vulnerability is strength. And once again, we’re reminded that behind the glam, BTS are just seven humans doing their best.
📈 V Ranks Among World’s Top Influencers
Despite being away from the spotlight, V’s influence hasn't faded—it's grown. According to HypeAuditor, he now ranks #3 on the world’s Top 1000 influencers, trailing only Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi. He’s the #1 Asian celebrity on the list, and with 68M+ Instagram followers, it’s no surprise.
Engagement rate? A jaw-dropping 20.6%. King behavior only.
🧃 Solo Stars Still Shining Bright
Even with group plans underway, the solo glow-up era is far from over.
- J-Hope dropped “Killin’ It Girl” with GloRilla and “Sweet Dreams” featuring Miguel. His sound is evolving and his confidence is palpable.
- Jin recently released his second solo EP Echo and is currently on his first solo world tour, “RunSeokjin.”
- SUGA quietly completed his alternative service and sparked concern during the livestream when fans noticed a possible scar on his hand. BigHit hasn’t confirmed anything yet, but ARMY is watching closely.
Oh, and SUGA is also investing in an MLB team. Talk about range.
💜 What This Means for ARMY
This isn’t just a comeback announcement. It’s a reminder of BTS’s unbreakable bond—with each other, and with us.
We’ve watched them grow from seven boys in a small dorm to global icons. We supported them as they went solo, and now, we welcome them back as one. The energy is shifting. The wait is ending. The purple wave is rising again.
So keep your lightsticks charged. BTS is coming home—and the world better be ready.
