Their conversation touched on upcoming music and projects, J-Hope even teased about studio sessions starting soon, hinting at a new era for the group. Fans were quick to flood social media with screenshots and clips, calling it a ‘dream come true’ and celebrating the moment ARMY had been waiting for.

The surprise livestream marked a meaningful turning point for BTS and ARMY alike. With all seven members reunited on screen, the moment sparked hope and excitement for what’s to come.
