Recently, Lee Hwa Jung, a researcher at NH Investment & Securities, predicted the timeline of BTS’s comeback after the members’ military discharge. According to Lee, the global boy group is expected to release a full-length album in the second half of 2025, a crucial milestone to boost HYBE’s revenue growth. Furthermore, Lee predicted that BTS would embark on a world tour in 2026 to maximize the album’s influence and profitability.
BTS’ J-hope also hinted at the group’s return in 2025, sharing, “As BTS, there is still so much we need to accomplish. Once we come together as a group, I believe we will create a significant impact, attracting everyone’s attention. I look forward to the moment when we will be together on stage again. I want to come back in a big way and say, “This is us.” This is BTS.” While I can’t speak for all the members, I trust they feel the same as me. I truly love doing this from the bottom of my heart.
Following this announcement, ARMYs around the world expressed their excitement over BTS’ reunion plans after their military service. While fans are excited and counting down the days for their idols’ return, many have expressed concerns about the difficulty of securing tickets for the world tour.
BTS has already stunned audiences by selling over 175,000 tickets for two major European stadium concerts in less than two hours. As a result, while news of a world tour in 2026 has fans excited, the fear of missing out on tickets remains a significant concern.
