As the countdown to BTS' full-group reunion intensifies, J-Hope has fueled excitement by teasing plans for a new album and a massive world tour. The announcement came during his guest appearance on MBC’s popular variety show Point of Omniscient Interfere, where the artist spoke candidly about his hopes and anxieties surrounding BTS’ reunion.

With six of the seven BTS members—RM, Jin, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook, already discharged from their mandatory military service, anticipation has reached new heights. The final member, Suga, is expected to complete his alternative service as a social worker later this week.

J-Hope didn’t shy away from sharing how he felt after completing his own military duties. Reflecting on the group’s dynamic post-service, he said, “When I was discharged, I had mixed feelings. Now that all the members are finishing, I wonder if we’ll still have the same chemistry when we work together again. I feel both anxious and excited."

He further confirmed that the members are already planning their next steps: “We’re planning to gather and discuss the album. We’re trying to prepare as quickly as possible. Since BTS is all about performances, we’re also planning a full group world tour.”

The interview also touched on J-Hope’s recent concert in Seoul, which was attended by all BTS members. While only Jin and Jungkook performed alongside him on stage, the gathering served as a powerful symbol of the group’s enduring bond. The artist is currently promoting his new single “Killin’ It Girl” featuring rapper GloRilla, and fans are already buzzing about the symbolic timing of the release.

HYBE had previously indicated that a full-group comeback would arrive in late 2025 or early 2026. J‑Hope’s confirmation now firmly places that timeline within reach, promising a revived era of BTS magic, with new music and global performances in the making.
