BTS, the popular K-pop group, has made a highly anticipated comeback with the announcement of their upcoming reunion album set to release on March 20, 2026. This marks their first full group project since 2022's Proof. The news was shared with the BTS ARMY fan club through handwritten letters bearing the date "2026.3.20." All seven members of BTS, including Jimin, Jung Kook, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, and V, are now reunited and gearing up for their next chapter.
