BTS has deleted all posts from their official Instagram account. This move is interpreted as an effort to heighten anticipation for their full group comeback on March 20. BTS generated a strong response from fans worldwide when they cleared their Instagram account on December 31. Overseas K-pop media have described this as "the calm before the storm," expressing the excitement of fans.

The recent reset of the social media account appears to be preparatory work ahead of the official comeback announcement by Big Hit Music on the 1st. The agency officially announced that BTS will release their full group album on March 20. This marks the first full group album release in approximately 3 years and 9 months since the anthology album 'Proof' released in June 2022.

The comeback date was revealed through handwritten letters the members sent to Weverse Gold members to celebrate the New Year on the 31st. The letters included the date '2026.03.20.' RM wrote, "I have waited more eagerly than anyone," Jin expressed gratitude saying, "Thank you for waiting," and J-Hope conveyed his excitement, stating, "Finally, what we have thought is becoming reality!" The day after, on January 1, 2026, HYBE officially announced their comeback.

The response from international fans has been explosive. One fan couldn't hide their excitement, saying, "Finally, their year has come, the kings are back... it's scary, thrilling, and exciting. I can't sleep anymore." Another fan emphasized global interest by stating, "Everyone, including their moms and even the antis, will be waiting." One netizen analyzed this as "the ultimate 'clean slate' strategy. With the confirmed spring 2026 comeback and world tour, this signals the start of a new era."

The majority of fans expressed their anticipation with comments like "something big is coming" and "I'm more curious about what concept they will return with." BTS has been taking their time to recharge after completing their military service, preparing meticulously without rushing in their musical efforts. They are expected to embark on a large-scale world tour following the release of their new album on March 20. Given the lack of specific updates until now, the deletion of the Instagram account is seen as the first signal announcing their full-scale comeback to fans.

Fans are eagerly awaiting the announcement of the tour schedule. The comeback of BTS is expected to present not just a new album release but a new musical direction and concept. Over the years, BTS has solidified their presence in the global music market by attempting various genres and styles. This comeback is likely to be a continuation of that trend.

As this will be the first time BTS returns as a full group since 2022, they plan to strengthen communication with fans even further. The members have emphasized the importance of communication by sending letters directly to fans. This approach carries great significance for fans and further heightens their anticipation for BTS's comeback.

The official comeback announcement of BTS will be an important milestone in their musical journey. Fans are curious about what music and messages BTS will bring upon their return. Their comeback will provide an opportunity to witness their growth and changes beyond just musical activities.

It appears that BTS will attempt new musical experiments through this album. Based on their past experiences and learnings, they plan to present more mature music. Fans are looking forward to what new stories BTS will share.

The comeback of BTS is expected to have a significant impact on the Korean music industry as well. Their activities will contribute to the continued spread of the Korean Wave and elevate the status of Korean artists in the global music market. The comeback of BTS will be an important opportunity that illuminates the future of Korean music beyond just individual achievements.
