Speculation around BTS performing in India has reached a new high after BTS member V dropped a tantalising hint during a Weverse live interaction on December 27. Responding to a fan greeting, V said, “Namaste, Indian ARMYs. See you next year,” a brief but powerful message that has sent Indian fans into a frenzy.

The comment comes as BTS prepares for a major comeback in 2026 after a nearly four-year hiatus. The globally acclaimed K-pop group has already confirmed that they are working on a new album, which is expected to release in March 2026, followed by a large-scale world tour. While V did not confirm specific dates or locations, fans have taken his words as a strong indication that India could finally be part of BTS’ tour itinerary.

All seven members of BTS reunited in June 2025 after completing their mandatory military service and have since been focused on individual projects while simultaneously planning the group’s return. With their reunion now complete, the group is reportedly gearing up for what is being described as one of their biggest eras yet.

According to a report by Bloomberg, HYBE is planning BTS’ “biggest tour ever” following the release of their 2026 album. The tour is expected to begin in spring 2026 and may include between 60 and 65 shows across the globe, with North America and Europe likely to be major stops.

Indian fans are eagerly awaiting official confirmation, especially as India has increasingly become a hotspot for major international concerts. Recent successful performances by global artists such as Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Dua Lipa, and Enrique Iglesias have reinforced the country’s growing prominence on the global touring circuit.

While nothing has been officially announced yet, V’s message has reignited hope among Indian ARMYs that the long-awaited BTS India concert might finally become a reality in 2026.

BTS member V, fondly known as Kim Taehyung, marked his 30th birthday on December 30, and the celebrations that followed were nothing short of extraordinary. From heartfelt messages by his bandmates to grand global fan projects, “Happy Taehyung Day” became a worldwide phenomenon, reflecting the immense love ARMY holds for the singer.

Fans across continents went above and beyond to honour the BTS star. In a historic first, V’s global fanbase secured a dedicated space at the Palace of Versailles in France, a landmark owned by the French government that has never before hosted a dedication to an international personality. The palace, once home to French royalty and now visited by nearly 15 million people annually, became part of Taehyung’s birthday legacy.

The celebrations didn’t stop there. In Moscow, Europe’s tallest Ferris wheel, “The Sun of Moscow,” lit up in purple and green as a tribute organised by Russian ARMYs. In China, a massive 118-metre-tall digital screen in Shenzhen displayed fan-organised birthday visuals for Taehyung, while his Chinese fanbase reportedly gifted him an entire plane as a symbol of admiration and support. These grand gestures followed earlier birthday projects such as themed buses and large-scale city displays.

Meanwhile, BTS members Jin, J-Hope, Suga, RM, Jimin and Jungkook shared warm and playful wishes that delighted fans. The group’s official social media accounts released a special video titled “Happy V Day,” featuring a montage of Taehyung’s memorable moments. Adding to the charm, J-Hope, RM and Jungkook posted behind-the-scenes clips from dance rehearsals, showing Taehyung shyly trying to avoid the camera as the members followed him laughing, offering fans a glimpse of their close bond.

The scale of celebration was reflected online as well, with V dominating worldwide trends from positions one through seven and emerging as the most searched artist on Google in over 72 countries. As Kim Taehyung turned 30, the overwhelming global response once again confirmed his status as a cultural icon whose influence extends far beyond music, uniting millions of fans across borders.

BTS’ Jungkook has once again melted the hearts of ARMYs around the world after opening up about his “first love” in a tender moment captured during the third episode of Are You Sure?! Season 2. Joined by Jimin, the duo spent a calm evening in the picturesque town of Zermatt, Switzerland — a setting that inspired honest conversations and nostalgic memories.

Jungkook’s First Crush: A Sweet Memory from His Trainee Years

In the episode, Jungkook reminisced about a time when he was in the 8th grade, participating in a month-long trainee program in the United States. It was there that he met a young girl — also a dance student — who unknowingly became his first crush.
“The first time I ever liked someone who wasn’t Korean was when I went to the US,” he shared. He fondly described her as “really pretty” and recalled seeing her often at the studio.

But despite the encouragement from his dance teacher, Jungkook never approached her.
“The teacher told me, ‘Jungkook, go talk to her just once!’ But I was like, ‘How? I don’t even speak English,’” he said, laughing at his younger self’s shyness.

Jimin’s Reaction: Teasing, Giggles & Brotherly Love

Jimin couldn’t contain his smile as Jungkook narrated the story — teasing him gently and prompting him with playful questions.
When Jimin asked what Jungkook would do if he were in the same situation today, the Golden Maknae confidently replied:
“Maybe I would go for it. I’ll say, ‘Hello, I like you!’”

The moment quickly went viral, with fans describing the exchange as “pure,” “precious,” and “so Jungkook.”

ARMY Reactions: Pure Chaos, Love, and Laughter

Social media erupted with heartwarming comments. One fan wrote,
“Young love stories like this show how genuine moments shape who he is today.”

Another ARMY jokingly added,
“Somewhere, a girl has no idea she was Jungkook’s first crush!”

The episode has since become one of the most talked-about instalments of Are You Sure?! S2, offering fans a rare glimpse into Jungkook’s teenage innocence and personality — and Jimin’s adorable reactions that made it even more special.

RM has reached out to BTS ARMY with a heartfelt message following the intense reaction to his recent livestream, where he spoke candidly about the pressures he and the group have faced. His comments about moments when BTS had considered breaking up triggered mixed emotions across the fandom, with some appreciating his honesty and others feeling blindsided. In a long post shared on WeVerse, RM expressed sincere regret for causing any distress, admitting that he had acted out of frustration in the moment. He apologized repeatedly, acknowledging the flood of concerned messages he received afterward and asking fans to look at him with a little kindness during this time.

Alongside his apology, RM shifted the tone by sharing pieces of his everyday life that fans rarely get to see. He revealed that he is preparing to take his driving test and had recently practiced all four training courses, admitting with humor that the experience was scary but, thankfully, crash-free. He also updated fans on his ongoing creative work, mentioning music, choreography practice, and new content ideas—activities that help him stay grounded whenever life feels overwhelming.

He ended his message with a peek into his personal world, sharing that he watched the film The Color of Pomegranates and is finally preparing to move back into his newly finished home after half a year away. Promising to show fans once everything is fully decorated, RM offered a soft moment of connection to counterbalance the tension earlier in the week. With excitement already building for BTS’s highly anticipated group comeback next year, his message served as both reassurance and a reminder of the human moments behind the global superstar image.
