BTS Members Today: Military Dates, Solo Music & What’s Next for OT7

New York: It’s May 2025, and the BTS universe is buzzing with anticipation.

From Jin’s chart-topping solo to J-Hope’s global tour and Jungkook’s heartfelt Weverse messages, every move the members make is sending ripples through ARMY worldwide.

Over the past two years, fans have watched the group temporarily split for mandatory enlistment, all while still delivering content — from solo albums to surprise collaborations and even reality shows. But now, as the military chapter draws to a close, the energy feels different. There’s hope. There’s excitement. And there’s one question echoing across fan spaces everywhere: When is BTS coming back as seven?

While HYBE has remained cautious about confirming a specific comeback date, there’s no denying it — 2025 marks the beginning of a new BTS era.
