BTS ARMY has been eagerly awaiting the full group’s reunion, but recent updates have left many fans disappointed. While Suga’s military discharge is scheduled for June 21, 2025, BTS’s highly anticipated comeback has now been officially pushed back to March 2026.
HYBE Confirms BTS Comeback Delay
HYBE, the entertainment company managing BTS through its Big Hit Music label, confirmed that the group’s comeback will take place in March 2026. According to a HYBE official cited by The Korea Herald, the additional time is necessary for “preparation and creative work” following the members’ solo releases and military duties.
HYBE CEO Lee Jang-sang addressed the delay during a recent shareholder meeting, explaining the importance of allowing the group adequate time to regroup and deliver fresh music and performances.
Suga Nears End of Military Service
Suga, the rapper, producer, and songwriter of BTS, has been fulfilling his mandatory military service as a social service worker since September 2023. BigHit Music announced that he will be discharged on June 21, 2025, with no official event planned for his return.
This marks the final BTS member to complete military duties, signaling that the group can finally focus on reuniting for new projects.
Fan Reactions to the Postponed Reunion
Despite the excitement surrounding Suga’s discharge, many fans expressed frustration over the delay in the full BTS reunion. The ARMY had hoped for a comeback in 2025, after years of anticipation while members completed their military service.
However, some fans have shown understanding, emphasizing the need for the group to take time to adjust and carefully prepare their return to the global stage.
Looking Ahead
With the reunion now scheduled for March 2026, BTS fans can expect a thoughtfully crafted comeback after an extended hiatus. The additional preparation time may ensure that the group delivers the high-quality music and performances that have become their signature.
