BTS vocalist Jungkook has confirmed that the group’s much-awaited comeback album is in the works and is slated to release in spring 2026.
The update came during a recent live session on Weverse, where BTS bandmates Jimin, Taehyung (V), and Jungkook reunited to interact with fans and drop a few exciting revelations.
As the members reflected on their time in the military, Jimin recalled a funny moment involving Jungkook singing in his sleep. “It actually sounded amazing,” Jimin said, according to a translation by @BTStranslation on X. Jungkook then shared that he’d been caught in a dream-within-a-dream and woke up wanting to record the melody. “If only phones were allowed, I could’ve saved it,” he laughed. “I might’ve remembered it if I had been fully awake!”
The biggest surprise came when Jungkook opened up about BTS’ upcoming group album, which will be their first full release since 2020’s BE.
“We’re aiming for next spring. Now, no matter what the outcome is, we have to release something. Right?" Jungkook said.
Jimin agreed, adding, “Our ARMY has waited so long, we can’t delay it any longer."
While the anticipation is high, Jungkook admitted he’s feeling a bit of pressure. “We have to work hard until next spring. Honestly, I’m a bit worried," he confessed.
With all seven members now discharged from South Korea’s mandatory military service, BTS is preparing for a full-fledged return. Jin and J-Hope were the first to complete their duties, followed by the rest in recent months.
Jungkook also touched upon his songwriting process, comparing himself to BTS leader RM (Namjoon). “I can’t write lyrics like Namjoon-hyung. I’m very straightforward and realistic, so the wording doesn’t come out," he said.
After nearly four years, BTS is finally ready to return and ARMYs around the world couldn’t be more excited.
