The wait is almost over! BTS (RM, Jin, Jimin, J-Hope, Suga, V, Jungkook) is set to make their long-awaited full-group comeback in 2025, as all members complete their military service. Fans worldwide, along with South Korea’s entertainment industry, are already preparing for what promises to be a historic reunion.

Jin, the group’s eldest member, officially wrapped up his military service in June 2024 after 547 days. Known for excelling in areas like shooting and physical fitness during his time in the Army, he earned the impressive title of “Special Warrior.” To celebrate his return, Jin greeted 1,000 lucky fans in a heartfelt hug event during BTS’s 2024 FESTA event on June 13.

J-Hope, the group’s dance machine, followed suit by completing his service in October 2024. He served as an instructor in the 36th Infantry Division, finishing his 18-month duty with flying colors.

Now that Jin and J-Hope are back, the countdown to BTS’s complete comeback has officially started.

The remaining members—RM, V, Jimin, Jungkook, and Suga—are all set to complete their service by mid-2025. RM and V will finish on June 10, followed by Jimin and Jungkook on June 11. Suga, serving as a public service worker due to health reasons, is set to be discharged on June 22.

Despite initial worries about enlistments, all members (except Suga) served as active-duty soldiers, proving their commitment. This move further reassured fans and strengthened their legacy.

While BTS has been on hiatus as a group, their labelmates, like SEVENTEEN, stepped up to fill the gap with major achievements. However, as HYBE gears up for BTS’s reunion, the focus is shifting back to the superstars who changed the global music scene.

The past couple of years weren’t without drama, including internal disputes at HYBE and minor legal troubles involving Suga. Still, none of this has dimmed the excitement for BTS’s return. Members like J-Hope, who is preparing for a new solo album in early 2025, and Jimin, with his Billboard success, continue to dominate the global music charts, proving BTS's unwavering influence.

BTS’s return isn’t just exciting for fans—it’s also expected to generate massive revenue. Experts predict that their reunion could bring in over ₩1 trillion in sales for HYBE through album releases, merchandise, a world tour, and digital content.

According to industry forecasts, HYBE is projected to earn ₩8.2 billion in 2025 and ₩10.5 billion in 2026, largely thanks to BTS. These numbers highlight the group’s incredible power to move not just fans, but also the global entertainment economy.

Known as the “Beatles of the 21st Century,” BTS’s influence stretches far beyond music. Their upcoming comeback is expected to mark the start of another golden era for the group and their loyal ARMY.

The excitement is real—BTS’s 2025 comeback is shaping up to be the event of the decade! Let the countdown begin.
