! I mean, it's been way too long since we've had a new album from them, and RM's hints are giving me all sorts of feels about what to expect. The fact that they're taking their time to work on something special, allowing each member to contribute their unique perspective is genius. It's gonna be so cool to see the guys bringing their own vibes to the table.
I'm so stoked to hear that BTS is back! They've been gone for ages and ARMY's been patiently waiting. I mean, 2020 was a long time ago 
. It's awesome that they're taking their time to work on something special and not just rushing out another album. That open mind approach is gonna be interesting... I'm curious to see how it all comes together! 
Can't wait for the tour, though - I've missed live performances so much 
. Maybe this is the perfect excuse for me to dust off my old concert gear and rock out like it's 2019 
. Bring it on, BTS! 
. And can you believe they're going on world tour too? That's like, a dream come true for ARMYs all around the globe 
. I love how RM is being so excited and enthusiastic about it, it's infectious 
. I'm definitely counting down to 2026 now 
. Bring on the new album and tour!
OMG I'm so hyped for BTS's comeback!! 
Meanwhile, global ticket sales for their last world tour broke records with over $100 million in just 24 hours. 
I mean, can you even imagine the energy at their shows? 
And speaking of records, did you know that BTS holds the Guinness World Record for the most viewed YouTube video in 24 hours by a music group? 
No pressure, guys, but let's get this comeback out already! 
Can't wait to dive into their new album and get lost in the music all over again 
That's what I love about BTS, they're always pushing the boundaries and trying new things.
! Can you imagine seeing all these amazing dancers and singers perform live? 
.
. We've had a few years of solo projects but this time around it's all about the group vibe again, which is just what we needed 
!
Can't wait to get my ARMY hands on that new disc and dance like a crazy person at the world tour concerts 
it's like, 400 MILLION streams later... 
. let's get ready to scream our lungs out with 'army' vibes 
! It's been forever since we've seen them perform live or dropped a new album 
The fact that they're taking their time to create something special with each member's unique perspective is super relatable 
Can't wait for the album and tour in 2026! Let's make some beautiful music together 
. I'm curious to see how that translates into their music - will we hear more introspective lyrics or experimental sounds? Whatever it is, I know ARMYs are ready for whatever BTS has in store for us!
