BTS Is Back! The 5th Album & World Tour Officially Announced — A Long-Awaited Comeback for the Whole Group


ARMY, pinch yourselves—this is really happening.

After nearly four years since their last group release, BIGHIT MUSIC has officially announced that BTS will be dropping their highly anticipated 5th studio album—and yes, it’s a full-group comeback! Even better? They’re hitting the road soon after with a brand-new World Tour!

In a heartwarming notice shared on January 4 at 23:00 KST, BIGHIT emphasized just how meaningful this release is—not only as a musical milestone but as a declaration of BTS’s future direction.

🎶 A Deeply Personal Album, Crafted with Heart

Titled simply “BTS The 5th Album”, this project marks the group’s first full-group album since Map of the Soul: 7 in February 2020—a gap of three years and nine months. But don’t let the wait fool you: every second was worth it.

The members have poured their personal reflections, struggles, and growth into all 14 tracks, crafting music that’s unmistakably BTS. This isn’t just an album—it’s a love letter to ARMY, filled with raw honesty and the kind of storytelling that only BTS can deliver.

As BIGHIT put it:

“Filled with the music that’s most true to BTS, the album is their heartfelt way of saying thank you to ARMY, who have been there this whole time.”

🌍 The Comeback Continues: World Tour Confirmed!

And just when you thought it couldn’t get better—a world tour is coming!

While full dates and locations won’t be revealed until January 14 at 12:00 AM KST, the mere confirmation has already sent ARMYs into joyful chaos (and frantic savings mode!). This tour promises to be more than just concerts—it’ll be a global celebration of resilience, reunion, and the unbreakable bond between BTS and their fans.
