While BTS' agency, BigHit, has not issued any statement as of now, industry insiders see a possibility of a prerelease single or other project dropping before the group's official return next year.

Jin apologizes to J-Hope for FAILING to recognize him at solo concert, wonders if BTS would perform as backup dancers
BTS member Jin's solo Run Seokjin Ep Tour has been praised far and wide for its unique events and unconventional progression. During one of the parts where the star has to guess the name of a BTS song or any other keyword related to himself, as the fans perform charades, he ended up not being able to recognize one for fellow member J-Hope and during a post-concert livestream, ended up saying sorry for it. Replying to another fan's comment about having his teammates as his background dancers, the oldest from the team shared how it may not be possible to hire them due to their sky-high appearance fees. Jin is not one to shy away from challenges, and as a die-hard game lover, he thought what better than to start his solo concert shouting 'I challenge', and progress into a series of fun games that involved his fans in the audience. One of the most loved sessions during the gig is the charades game, where his fans act out the song or keyword written on the screen. During his July 30 concert in Newark, the singer had to guess J-Hope, and despite all the Killin' It Girl choreography and shirtless acting from the BTS ARMY, Jin was unable to figure out it was his teammate. During a post-concert livestream, J-Hope asked, 'Hahaha, why do you look so exhausted, Jin?' Spotting the comment, he replied, 'Someone's [among the members] here? J-Hope y bro. Today, the keyword to guess at Run Jin was J-Hop,e and I failed. Sorry, my bro! What's that thing you do every day? I'm sorry for my fault, I'm J-Hope something, yeah, that,' he ended up joking about it. BTS as backup dancers? Why not! In the same livestream, another fan asked if he would consider having his group mates as his dancers on tour, and the singer had the perfect response. 'Have the BTS members as back dancers for my tour? Wow, it'll cost us so much money to hire them. Would they do it for free?' We're sure Jin, the members would be more than happy to!

K-Pop Demon Hunters Review: Netflix's Bingeable Animated Film Is Worth The Hype
New Delhi: There's something wildly entertaining about a film that doesn't try to downplay its own ridiculousness, a movie that knows exactly how absurd its premise is and leans in with style, humour and enough emotional weight to keep things steady. K-Pop Demon Hunters, Netflix's latest animated feature from Sony Pictures Animation, does just that. Set in a glittering, demon-shadowed version of South Korea, K-Pop Demon Hunters introduces us to Huntrix, a wildly popular K-pop girl group composed of Rumi, Mira and Zoey, who lead a double life. On stage, they're idols with chart-topping hits; offstage, they are the last in a lineage of demon slayers tasked with maintaining the Golden Honmoon, a magical barrier that keeps demonic forces sealed beneath the Earth. But just as Huntrix stands on the brink of sealing the barrier permanently, a new threat rises in the form of the Saja Boys, a newly formed demon boy band with devastating charm and a secret agenda to destroy Huntrix and resurrect their demonic overlord, Gwi-Ma. Leading the Saja Boys is Jinu, a half-human with a soft voice, sharp abs and more than one secret of his own. What follows is a fast-paced, music-fuelled showdown that's as much about inner conflict as it is about slaying purple-marked demons with glowing weapons. Rumi, the group's lead singer, is hiding something: she's part demon herself. Her growing connection with Jinu threatens to undo everything Huntrix has worked for, and the film makes room for that tension to simmer, without ever dragging the story down. At just under 90 minutes, K-Pop Demon Hunters keeps things moving, from slick action sequences and chaotic rehearsals to downtime filled with bingsu, bubble tea and snack-fuelled karaoke nights. The animation is a visual feast. Pulling from webtoons, manhwa and the kinetic style of Spider-Verse, the film layers bold colours, hyper-stylised frames, and comic-book-inspired transitions that feel both fresh and familiar. Every performance sequence feels like its own concert film, while fight scenes glide between dance choreography and anime-style flair. There's barely a dull frame. The humour lands, too. Whether it's Zoey's exaggerated reactions (eyes turning into corncobs at the sight of abs), dramatic spa-day montages, or sly jabs at K-drama tropes, the film doesn't take itself too seriously. But it's also not afraid to get sentimental. But underneath its humour is a sincere respect for the K-pop world it playfully skewers. From the hyper-detailed stage designs based on real Korean landmarks to subtle folklore references (including sidekicks modelled after traditional spirits), the film is a cultural celebration as much as it is an animated romp. The sisterhood between the three girls feels lived-in, and the pressure of holding it all together, the fame, the fandom, the demon-hunting, is never brushed aside. Even the villain, Gwi-Ma, voiced with menace by Lee Byung-hun, gets just the right amount of screen time to keep the stakes high without overshadowing the core trio. Then there's the music, probably the strongest element after the visuals. With original tracks performed by EJAE, Audrey Nuna, Rei Ami, and even TWICE covering Takedown in the end credits, the soundtrack is super catchy. Songs like Golden, How It's Done and Free do more than fill space between dialogue; they push the story forward, heighten the action, and stay in your head long after the credits roll. It's no surprise the fictional bands from the film actually charted; this is a soundtrack with real legs. Maggie Kang's directorial debut doesn't just tick boxes, it redefines them. As a Korean-American filmmaker, she brings a lived-in understanding of K-pop's duality: the glittering, commercial surface and the rigorous, identity-shaping struggle underneath. This results in a narrative that isn't merely about spectacle or romance (though both are present), but about belonging, vulnerability and self-acceptance. And while K-Pop Demon Hunters doesn't exactly break new ground in terms of story, it's smart enough to know that it doesn't have to. It finds strength in the details: Rumi taking off her stage makeup and slipping into oversized sweats to write music alone, Zoey's goofy confidence masking deeper anxieties, the way each member of the Saja Boys is clearly modelled after familiar K-pop archetypes. Even the tiger demon and the magpie sidekick (likely added for toy potential) are hard not to love. 2025 unquestionably belongs to K-Pop Demon Hunters. It's not flawless, the backstories could've used more depth, and some beats feel rushed, but it's fun, sharp, and far better than it has any right to be. Huntrix might sing, dance, and slay, but the real magic is that they pull all three off without missing a beat.

After egg photo, BTS' Jimin deletes Jungkook's caricature of him, plays with young cat despite allergy
BTS' Jimin is on a roll these days! After mostly being MIA during his military service and achieving impressive accolades, he's back on social media. Well on his way to prove why he's the funniest member, much like J-Hope said, he has been making the internet burst into laughter with every move. On July 31, the singer deleted another one of his iconic posts on Instagram, one that had become the fandom's recent favorites. It was a caricature of the singer himself drawn by teammate Jungkook. Just a couple of days ago, the Who singer went on his Instagram to delete the picture of a lonely egg he had shared before his military enlistment in November 2023. The sudden act left the fans surprised, but the singer defended himself and shared how he felt relieved to make his social media look better. Now, the hilarious marker drawing made of him by Jungkook, which had become a point of discussion among fans, has disappeared, and we think the singer may be laughing about it back in his room. BTS' Jimin and cats: A surprising match Earlier in the day, Jimin updated his Instagram story with a video of a tiny cat which he was seen petting. As a remark, he added that it was taken a month ago and was heard saying 'be well' to the adorable animal, calling it cute. A grey fur cat with black stripes, it appeared to be enjoying the scratches from the K-pop singer, unaware and uncaring of his global status. A previous video shared mere days ago showed Jimin following another kitten around as it waited for the BTS member to play with it. A story like no other, Jimin and cats share a special bond, as despite his allergy to their fur, the Korean singer finds himself going back to them. His song Serendipity specifically mentions a calico cat, which has always made fans link him to one.
