While performing back-to-back shows in Anaheim for his solo fan concert series, RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR, BTS’ Jin still found time to connect with ARMY in a heartfelt Weverse live session on July 18. During the livestream, Jin gave fans a touching update—not only about his tour, but also about his recent reunion with the rest of BTS in Los Angeles. The band is currently working on their highly anticipated full-group comeback album, scheduled for release in spring 2026.

Jin shared that he had met RM, SUGA, Jimin, V, and Jungkook just a few days prior. While watching them work in the studio, he observed that the members seemed to be doing well—not just in terms of their album preparations, but also in terms of their overall well-being. “They’re doing well and working hard,” he said with pride. “Their mindset as well—they’ve gotten healthier.”

Jin, ever the caring older brother, affectionately referred to the members as “our babies” during the stream. He mentioned how happy it made him to see them laughing and enjoying themselves while working together. “They seem to be giggling away and having fun among themselves,” he added, giving fans a vivid image of BTS in their element—bonded, playful, and fully immersed in music once again.

His words struck a deep chord with fans, especially those who have been waiting patiently for the group’s full reunion following their mandatory military enlistments and solo careers. The emotional comfort in Jin’s voice as he described their togetherness reminded ARMY of the tight-knit bond BTS has always been known for. Despite being separated for long stretches, their chemistry and connection remain intact.

As for Jin, his own tour is nearing its final leg. After Anaheim, he is scheduled to perform in Dallas, Tampa, and Newark, with European stops in London and Amsterdam coming up in August. Once the tour wraps, he is expected to rejoin the members in Los Angeles and dive into group promotions ahead of their 2026 comeback.

While exact details of the new album are still under wraps, speculation suggests a March release. For now, fans can take comfort in knowing that BTS is not only back together—but thriving—and that their bond, like their music, continues to resonate with sincerity and strength.
