Composed of RM, Jin, j-hope, Jimin, Suga, V, and Jungkook, BTS is set to release their new album on March 20. According to the recent announcement of BigHit Music, the new record will contain 14 tracks.
"The members were deeply involved in the creation of the songs, infusing their own thoughts and colors into them while musically expressing the emotions and struggles they have experienced along their journey," BigHit said.
"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 label added.
Album will be available for pre-order starting at 11 a.m. on January 16 in South Korea, or 10 a.m. Philippine time.
Back in August 2025, RM opened up about the group's journey in creating their next record.
"It's already been a little over two months since I was discharged. Now I’m in faraway Los Angeles, living, working, and playing with the members," he said in a post on Weverse as translated to English at that time.
RM remarked that he is devoting himself on creating their next record with the members. "I want to devote myself to, and be grateful for, this very moment of still creating something 'together' with these friends," he stated.
The singer also reflected on the time since their last performance and promised that when they return, it would feel as if no time had passed.
"It's been such a long time, hasn’t it? But when we meet again… it'll feel as if none of this time had passed. I promise," he stated.
