Meanwhile, A full BTS reunion is anticipated for June 2025, with all seven members completing their military duties including Jimin.
BTS renewed their contracts with Big Hit Music last year, exciting fans with the prospect of new music, albums, and potential concert tours post-service.
This year also marks their 11th anniversary as a group. Although most members were not able to commemorate the milestone, Jin was the one who greeted ARMYs and joined their annual “FESTA.”
Congratulations to Jimin and Loco on their successful single!
