BTS, the world's most successful K-pop group, is apparently aiming to return with a bang in 2026. The trio is expected to go on their largest world tour to date, as well as release new songs via an album. Jimin also announced that they had finished recording their return album, which is set to be released in the next year, around March 2026. Although BigHit Music has not made an official statement, whispers from an alleged Live Nation Touring source suggest that the group is planning shows in major worldwide cities, including Seoul, Tokyo, Los Angeles, London, Paris, and Mumbai. The buzz has ignited social media, with fans excitedly disputing the veracity of the leaked list. With Mumbai being on the list, the desi ARMY is beyond excited to meet their idols.
The band will make their full-group comeback after completing South Korea's required military service. Their previous group album was released six years ago. The world tour is supposed to contain 65 shows, with around half of them in North America. BTS leader RM had also vowed that the group would go to other parts of the world.
