BTS surprise ARMY with live stream after 3 years; Confirm new music, world tour and more - Deets inside!
BTS have officially reunited! Although it has been a while since all the members were finally discharged from the military, fans have just received the much-needed confirmation via a live stream session with all seven members. BTS surprises fans with live stream On July 1, BTS took to a popular fan forum website and started a livestream with all of the members on screen sitting around a couch. This is the first live stream event that the idols have held together since September 22, only a few months before Jin officially started his military service. The live stream came as a surprise to most fans, as the notification for the live stream popped up with no warning. All seven members of the group were gathered around a couch and shared anecdotes from their time in the military and how everything has been since their return to civilian life. Members RM and Jimin even talked about how things have been feeling weird ever since coming back, 'like a vacation', the leader of the group mentioned, to which all of the remaining members made fun of him. New BTS album launch The live stream was not the only thing that shocked fans! BTS casually ended up confirming that the group will be releasing new music by next year! The news was also officially confirmed later, as per reports from Variety as well. Fans should mark their calendars for spring 2026, as a new album and music have officially been confirmed by the group's management agency. While sharing the news with the fans, the group issued a statement in the live stream saying, 'Starting in July, all seven of us will begin working closely together on new music. Since it will be a group album, it will reflect each member's thoughts and ideas. We're approaching the album with the same mindset we had when we first started.' It was also shared that the members will begin creating and working on new music by August, as they are planning on travelling to the US. While no official date was announced by the group members or by their management agency, they even ended up confirming that they're simultaneously working together to prepare for a massive world tour as well. Fans react As soon as the live stream started, fans started pouring in their reactions online about OT7 finally reuniting. One fan commented, 'I'm torn between the fact that it's finally OT7 live again after a long time and the fact that they're working on group music already and back to their roots. Like, I'm processing one by one; it's overwhelming (positive) (lovingly and wholeheartedly).' Another fan expressed their excitement by saying, 'BTS are definitely trying something new for their comeback album and will be more hands-on in it than ever.' Live album on the way The group are all set to release their first-ever live album for their previous tour, 'Permission to Dance On Stage'. The tour managed to be a huge success, garnered over 4 million people in attendance and was held both online and offline, as per the COVID-19 restrictions during 2021 to 2022. The live album will feature 22 songs in total, as well as behind-the-scenes content, interviews, and live performance recordings. The album will drop on July 18, while the pre-orders for the album have already started.

HYBE America CEO Scooter Braun steps down hours after BTS reveal full-group comeback
HYBE America is witnessing some major shakeups, as Scooter Braun, the CEO of the subsidiary, released a joint statement announcing his withdrawal from the position on July 1. The news dropped just hours after BTS, HYBE's K-pop powerhouse, announced their full group comeback following their military return. Braun, however, isn't leaving entirely, he's stepping into a new role as senior advisor and board member. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the update came during an internal call with employees on July 1, where Braun, dialling in from vacation, confirmed that the shift had been 'in the works for quite some time.' For years, Braun has been a controversial figure in the music industry. His ties with Korea's biggest K-pop agency have also drawn heat from Korean netizens and BTS fans, with some even calling for boycotts over political and artist-related issues, especially considering his rocky history with artists like Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber, among others. Also read: BTS' Suga warns 'the market's not the same' as group confirms 2026 comeback and tour In 2021, HYBE CEO and chairman Bang Si Hyuk announced his collaboration with Braun after the latter's Ithaca Holdings LLC was sold to the company. It was a strategic move by the Korean music mogul to expand overseas activities and debut new groups aimed at the American market, like the girl group Katseye, with whom Braun is still very much involved. 'I'm not going anywhere,' Braun reportedly told staff. 'I'll still help guide the artists.' However, with this shift, his management era is officially over, closing a big chapter of his career, one that first kicked off with names like Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, and J Balvin. HYBE is now going forward with Isaac Lee, former chairman of HYBE Latin America, as the new CEO of HYBE America. Lee will be in charge of handling U.S. operations, including Big Machine Label Group and Quality Control Media Holdings. Also read: BTS' 2026 announcement just made HYBE's global staff 6.21 million KRW richer, here's how Meanwhile, Braun hasn't said a word about what his next career move is, only hinting that he's looking at 'new ventures'. Announcing his new role as one of the agency's biggest shareholders, he said, 'Being a part of HYBE and witnessing its remarkable growth has been one of the most inspiring chapters of my professional journey. Chairman Bang is a true visionary and a musical genius. What he has built with HYBE is unparalleled. I am incredibly proud of our collective accomplishments and look forward to supporting Chairman Bang and CEO Jason Jaesang Lee in their continued success as I step into what's next.' Meanwhile, Bang also released a statement praising Braun and said, 'Scooter has been an extraordinary partner, a visionary executive, and a true catalyst for cultural exchange. His contributions have been vital in establishing our ambitious presence in the U.S. market. I am deeply grateful for his leadership, his astute instincts and his unwavering passion for artists. We wish him immense success in his exciting next chapter and look forward to continuing our partnership in executing HYBE's global vision.' Scooter Braun recently made headlines for his split with Bieber after reports emerged about a $20 million financial fallout due to the cancelled Justice tour. While fans may wonder if his exit is tied to controversies, for now, he is still in the mix, just no longer calling the shots as CEO.

BTS' Suga warns ‘the market's not the same' as group confirms 2026 comeback and tour
BTS has officially announced their comeback during a Weverse live held on July 1. The full group — RM, Suga, J-Hope, Jin, Taehyung, Jungkook, and Jimin — joined fans for a half-hour session, talking about where they're headed as a group and finally dropping details about their long-anticipated world tour and album plans. RM shared that they're aiming for a full album release in spring next year. The livestream pulled in over 7.3 million viewers in real time. This update comes shortly after HYBE announced BTS's first live album 'Permission to Dance' release, accompanied by 'BTS Permission to Dance on Stage – Seoul' Also read: 'BTS' Suga is the Eminem of K-pop': Grammy-winning producer reveals why the West wants to work with the singer BTS has been gone for 18 months as a group, with their last live concert in 2022. It's already been three years, and while every member has launched their solo career, with a few like J-Hope and Suga even kicking off solo world tours, they're well aware the market they're returning to might not be the same. During the album announcement, the group recalled when their last proper album dropped (excluding the anthology Yet to Come) and pointed out that by the time the next one lands next year, it'll have been nearly six years. 'That's enough time for four people to finish their military service,' RM joked. 'But honestly, it doesn't feel real yet — we still have to start working on it,' Suga said. 'I have no idea how it'll turn out. We'll just have to keep talking about it for now,' Jimin added, to which Suga replied, 'The market's changed a lot in the meantime.' RM summed it up, saying it's best they 'stick together,' no matter what. 'Probably around July or August… maybe Lollapalooza, Jin's tour, and more things. There'll be a lot of individual stuff too, but we'll try our best to communicate,' RM added.

The new album is described as something that will reflect 'each member's thoughts and ideas' and take them back to the mindset they had when they first debuted, since this comeback will pretty much mark phase two of their debut after a long break. 'We're approaching the album with the same mindset we had when we first started.' BTS V, aka Kim Taehyung, dropped an extra detail, revealing that the new album shoot is happening in America, which may or may not have been a spoiler. The group looked a bit surprised at the slip, but RM just laughed it off. Meanwhile, BTS is also gearing up for a world tour next year. 'We're also planning a world tour alongside the new album,' they said. 'We'll be visiting fans all around the world, so we hope you're as excited as we are.' Their last tour, BTS: Permission to Dance on Stage, was held after the pandemic and drew over 4 million attendees.
