The purple ocean is about to glow brighter than ever as the icons of a generation prepare to reclaim their throne. This is not just a return to the stage; it is the beginning of a historic new era that will redefine the global music landscape. The wait is finally over for the BTS Army.

After nearly four years of waiting, the biggest boy band in the world is making a massive comeback. RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook have all finished their military service and are ready to take over the world again. But with all this excitement, is the group planning a last farewell or a fresh start?

The boy band is gearing up for an unprecedented global takeover, but what about their future?

No, the recent buzz does not indicate that BTS is having its last show with ARIRANG. Instead, 2026 marks the highly anticipated full-group comeback of the band following the completion of their mandatory military service in June 2025. This milestone signals a renewed commitment to their craft and their fans worldwide.

The BTS world tour ARIRANG will kick off in April 2026, featuring stops in Asia, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Australia. A historic, 360-degree, in-the-round live concert called BTS The Comeback Live | ARIRANG will take place at Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul on March 21, 2026. This event will serve as a monumental celebration of their reunion.

After a nearly four-year hiatus, BTS is returning with a new album, a massive global tour, and a partnership with Netflix. The band is set to release its fifth studio album, titled 'ARIRANG,' on March 20, 2026. The production is described as a deeply reflective 14-track project that the members worked on together in the second half of 2025.

Beyond the live performances, fans will receive an exclusive look into the private journey of the members through Netflix, as chosen by the boys.

If the concert is not enough, Netflix is also releasing a documentary called BTS: The Return on March 27, 2026. Directed by the famous filmmaker Bao Nguyen, the film follows the members as they reunite in Los Angeles to record a new album. It captures the raw energy of their creative process after being apart for years.

The documentary offers an intimate glimpse into their brotherhood and their feelings about starting anew as a group. Fans will get to see behind-the-scenes moments of them laughing, practicing, and figuring out what the future of BTS looks like. It highlights the emotional weight of their journey back to one another.

Apart from the global tour and Netflix documentary, the BTS THE CITY Project will transform Seoul into a massive, immersive playground from March 20 to April 12, 2026, featuring stunning media art at major landmarks. Alongside these festivities, individual momentum remains high as Jin continues his solo fan concert tour, RUNSEOKJIN_EP, while other members prepare fresh solo music to complement the group’s return.
