ARMY, get ready to lose your minds because the news we’ve all been *desperately* waiting for is HERE! Global K-Pop icons, BTS, are officially dropping a full group album on **March 20, 2026**! This marks their highly anticipated return as a complete unit, nearly 3 years and 9 months since their legendary anthology album ‘Proof’ dropped in June 2022. We are NOT ready for this comeback!
The big reveal? Our beloved oppas sent handwritten letters to ARMYs for the New Year, slipping in the 2026.03.20 date like the kings they are! These letters were packed with gratitude for our unwavering support during their military service and pure excitement for their reunion with us.
The members’ messages hit us right in the feels! RM said he “desperately waited” – same, king, same! Jin shared his immense gratitude for us waiting, while Suga promised a fun year ahead. J-Hope literally manifested his dreams saying, “Finally, what I thought is becoming a reality!” Jimin declared it’s “the year we meet,” and V teased us with promises of “more and better memories in 2026.” And our golden maknae, Jungkook, melted hearts with a simple “I miss you. Please take care of me this year.” Ugh, their visuals and their words are just everything!
Since their 2013 debut, BTS has been *the* game-changer, celebrating their 14th year as true veterans. From ‘Dynamite’ to ‘Butter’ and ‘Boy With Luv,’ their discography is a treasure trove of hits. They literally globalized K-Pop, becoming the FIRST K-Pop artists to snatch #1 on both Billboard 200 and Hot 100, and conquering the American Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards, and even the GRAMMYs! Talk about iconic.
After all members completed their military service by June 2023, the anticipation for this full group comeback has been off the charts. And ARMY is already *serving*! Fans worldwide are streaming ‘Run BTS’ from the ‘Proof’ album like there’s no tomorrow, warming up the comeback vibes. This track, which is all about encouraging each other, soared to #1 on iTunes Top Song charts in a whopping 61 countries/regions, including Brazil, Finland, and Mexico! That’s the power of ARMY and our oppas!
From the emo-hip-hop vibes of ‘FAKE LOVE’ to the disco-pop joy of ‘Dynamite,’ BTS always delivers a powerful message. So, what new narrative will these legends bring with their album after nearly four years? The world is watching, waiting to be slayed once again!
