BTS has once again proven why they remain at the very top of the global music scene. As of July 20, 2025, the group made history by becoming the first artist in the world to surpass 30 million subscribers on Weverse, the popular fan communication platform. This milestone isn’t just about numbers—it reflects the group’s lasting connection with their fanbase and their unmatched digital influence.
Weverse, launched in June 2019, allows artists to share content, interact directly with fans, and offer access to exclusive media, ticketing, and merchandise. It’s now available in 245 countries and regions, and in just the first quarter of 2025, it saw 10 million monthly active users. While the platform hosts many other major names—like Ariana Grande, Dua Lipa, and countless K-pop acts—no one else comes close to BTS’ reach. This 30 million subscriber record firmly cements their status as digital trailblazers in the world of fandom culture.
Beyond the historic achievement, what truly resonated with fans was how BTS continues to make these moments personal. Member Jin, known for his dry wit, marked the occasion with a typically humorous post: “I was told to post something brag-worthy, so here it is.” The short message went viral across platforms, and fans quickly rallied around it, celebrating both the milestone and Jin’s signature charm.
This achievement also comes during a significant moment in BTS’ timeline. With all seven members now officially discharged from military service, the group is gearing up for a major comeback in spring 2026. This will be their first full-group release since 2022, making it one of the most anticipated music events of the year. Over the past few years, each member has pursued solo activities—from music and acting to variety shows—keeping the ARMY engaged while also expanding their individual artistry.
Adding to the excitement, BTS recently released their first-ever live album, Permission To Dance On Stage, on July 18, 2025. The album captures performances from their iconic tour stops in Seoul, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas between 2021 and 2022. For fans, it’s more than just a concert recording—it’s a time capsule of joy, connection, and the emotional highs of their return to live stages post-pandemic.
Together, the 30 million Weverse subscribers, Jin’s playful acknowledgment, the upcoming 2026 comeback, and the live album release all highlight one thing: BTS’ global presence remains as powerful as ever. They’ve built not just a fanbase, but a lasting community—and that’s something no number can fully capture.
