The tracks analyzed

At the moment there is no official confirmation, but see Yankee in the BTS office It has raised all the alarms and adds to the clues that it has been leaving and that the army has been analyzing with a magnifying glass.

One of them is the purple heart which he has shared that many have interpreted as a direct reference to the 'I Purple You' slogan that he popularized Va member of BTS, as a symbol of love between the group and its fans. “Puerto Rico in Korea – 🇵🇷🇰🇷,” he wrote along with a collection of photos that included a 'coming soon'.

“Planning for the group comeback is underway, but there is still time to organize this new stage in their career,” Hybe explained in a statement. But the fans are expectant and impatient and maybe 2026 will be seen as too far away. That is why they welcome with such enthusiasm every little clue that may lead to speculation about what is to come.

Focused on their own projects

For now, the group members are prioritizing their solo projects. Jin and J-Hope They have events scheduled for this year. Jungkook He could launch his first tour as a soloist. AND RM and suga They have had their own presentations.

As to Daddy Yankeein 2022 he announced that he was retiring from music and that he would only remain in the industry focused on faith projects and international collaborations. Hence, many think that this possible collaboration with BTS is more at the producer or musical mentor level.

But who knows, maybe after a difficult year personally due to his divorce mediahas decided to return. We will remain attentive.

The one that is in the process of expansion is Hybe. In 2021 it acquired the company Scooter Braunwith artists like justin bieber, Ariana Grande and J Balvin. In fact, the Colombian revealed that he had recorded a song with BTS, although it was never released.

Expectation in the Army

New times are coming in which many trust that the Latin urban scene will join K-Pop to expand the market and reach younger people. You just have to wait. Of course, on networks, the expectation is maximum.

What will be the next move?
