Like many of their previous projects, this one is anticipated to combine BTS's characteristic brand of introspection, social commentary, and innovative visuals.
A New Era Begins for BTS and ARMY
With this return, BTS's longest break since their 2013 debut will come to a conclusion. All group activities were suspended in 2022 so that each member could complete their required military duty. Several members developed their artistic careers on their own, worked with foreign musicians, and explored solo music endeavours throughout this time.

Fans can anticipate something strong, intimate, and unforgettable as RM stated that this comeback is a revival of the BTS legacy rather than a simple return.
