All seven BTS members have completed their mandatory military service and reunited on June 21 after Suga’s arrival.
Nearly two and a half years since Jin’s groundbreaking enlistment in December 2022, the moment ARMY has been anticipating is finally here.
This isn’t just any comeback—it’s the dawn of BTS 2.0, where each member returns with evolved artistry from their individual journeys, promising a more mature and diverse sound that will redefine their legacy.
Will BTS Reunite? The Answer Every ARMY Needs
Yes, and it’s happening faster than you think! With Jin and J-Hope already discharged and actively creating new content, the remaining five members are in their final weeks of service.
The staggered discharge schedule creates perfect momentum, building anticipation as each member returns home.
What makes this reunion extraordinary isn’t just the end of their hiatus—it’s the artistic transformation each member has undergone.
RM’s introspective solo work, Jimin’s vulnerable artistry, V’s jazz explorations, Jungkook’s genre-blending experiments, and Suga’s continued production genius all converge into what promises to be their most sophisticated era yet.

The reunion timeline is now crystal clear, with each member completing their 18-month service requirement.

What I found particularly exciting about this timeline is that Jin and J-Hope have already completed their service and are actively preparing for the grand reunion.

The remaining members are in their final weeks, with only days left until we see RM and V return, followed immediately by Jimin and Jungkook, and finally Suga, who will complete the circle on June 21st.
BTS Festa 2025 Announced: Official Comeback Begins
The excitement reaches fever pitch with BTS Festa 2025 officially beginning, celebrating their incredible 12th anniversary on June 13th. On May 31, 2025, BTS came live on Weverse and made it official – they have plenty of content planned to celebrate this milestone reunion year, and honestly, I couldn’t contain my excitement watching that announcement.

HYBE has confirmed that the offline Festa event will take place on June 13-14, 2025, at KINTEX in Goyang, featuring an impressive setup with 20 booths across two large exhibition halls.
What I found absolutely brilliant was their choice of theme: “Twelve O’Clock,” inspired by their beloved song “00:00 (Zero O’Clock).” This symbolizes fresh beginnings and new chapters; the perfect metaphor for their long-awaited reunion.
The Festa announcement came through the most entertaining self-produced video titled “(2025 FESTA) BTS News,” with Jin stepping into his role as news anchor while J-Hope brilliantly played multiple reporter characters.

Their natural chemistry had me laughing and crying simultaneously, reminding everyone exactly why we fell so deeply in love with these seven boys.
Jin’s heartfelt words during the announcement hit differently: “It represents the future we will walk together with ARMY.”
Adding even more excitement to the celebration, Jin will launch his solo fan concert ‘Run Seok Jin – EP Tour’ at Goyang Stadium on June 28-29, while J-Hope will light up the stage with his ‘Hope on the Stage Final’ concerts at the same venue during the Festa dates of June 13-14.
The timing couldn’t be more perfect for this reunion celebration.

What To Expect From BTS Reunion & Comeback?
The anticipation for BTS’s reunion extends far beyond just seeing them together again. Based on official statements and member interviews, here’s what we can realistically expect:
New Music And Albums
HYBE has officially stated that they are “aiming for full group activities in 2025,” although preparation time will be needed after all members complete their service.
The members have spent their hiatus period growing as individual artists, with each releasing solo projects that showcase their evolved musical identities.
RM mentioned in interviews that their solo experiences would have a “good influence” on BTS’s next chapter, suggesting we can expect a more mature and refined sound.
Group Activities And Variety Content
One thing I’m particularly excited about is the potential return of “Run BTS,” their beloved variety show that went on hiatus during enlistment.

The success of Jimin and Jungkook’s travel show “Are You Sure?!” on Disney Plus proved that ARMY’s appetite for BTS variety content remains insatiable. The group’s natural chemistry and humor will likely translate into new entertainment formats.
World Tour Possibilities In 2026
While immediate touring seems unlikely given the preparation time needed for new music, industry insiders suggest a potential world tour in 2026. This would allow the group adequate time to create new material, rehearse as a septet, and plan the massive production that BTS concerts are known for. We saw Jhope tour gaining massive success, so maybe when OT7 comes, it will be loudest!
The members themselves have expressed both excitement and nervousness about reuniting. Jimin shared on Weverse that while he feels “a bit scared” after time away from the stage, his “determination to give you the best stage possible” remains unwavering.
J-Hope described the upcoming reunion as having “massive energy” and expressed curiosity about how their individual growth will blend into their group dynamic. Keep yourself updated with the BTS Concert 2025 with our guide.
