Will BTS release new music in March 2026? BIGHIT MUSIC responds to comeback reunion reports
BTS is gearing up for an all-member comeback following the military discharges of all its seven members. After Jin and J-Hope's return last year, RM and V, as well as Jimin and Jungkook, made their own returns this month. Meanwhile, SUGA is all set to complete his own alternative social service on June 20, making a return to civilian life on the following day. Previously, a report from The Korea Herald said that BTS will make a comeback to the music scene in March 2026, according to multiple insiders who claimed that they knew about their release plans. Now, BIGHIT MUSIC has denied any such plans.
BTS' agency confirms if the release plans were true
In a new statement revealed by Soompi, it was noted that the team will make a full group comeback in March 2026. The initial report also cited insiders who said that despite not setting an exact date for the release, the schedule was in place for the group's new album, and it was said to be mid-March. They claimed that the timeline was similar to that of TOMORROW X TOGETHER, BTS' junior group in the agency. The overseas source revealed how the plan was to have BTS release new music, followed by TXT, or possibly the other way round.
The coverage included alleged plans for BELIFT LAB group, HYBE's other label, ENHYPEN's music schedule. It was said that the I-LAND-based team earlier planned a mid-March release but had to move it to January of the coming year, to accommodate BTS' plans and avoid any overlap. Addressing the most important rumor of them all, the K-pop team's agency, BIGHIT MUSIC, said, 'Nothing has yet been decided about [BTS'] comeback schedule.'

AI startup CEO mutes Bryan Johnson and stops using health trackers, says 'it's all made up'; post goes viral
Would you give up your fitness tracker device, daily biometrics, and strict health hacks if it meant reclaiming your peace of mind? Well, that's the question many are asking after a California-based startup founder, who publicly distanced himself from the tech-fueled and intense longevity routine promoted by age-reversal influencer Bryan Johnson. The X (formerly called Twitter) post has now gone viral. Alex Finn, the CEO of the AI content tool, shared a post on his X on Sunday, which is now doing the rounds on social media. The founder of Creator Buddy took to his X (formerly called Twitter) to share that he has dropped using his Apple Watch, Oura Ring, and Whoop band and has also muted Bryan Johnson. In the viral post, he explains why he chose to stop indulging in all this and said he did this just to reduce stress and get better sleep. 'Optimising every part of life caused more stress than it solved' According to Finn, he sleeps better now without obsessively monitoring his health and thinks that the constant need to track every metric in life has gone too far. He continues to argue that what's sold as 'scientific' optimisation often becomes a source of anxiety rather than just for well-being. Alex mutes Bryan Johnson, the fitness enthusiast Apart from stopping the tech devices for tracking health that gave Alex more stress than good, he mentioned that he has muted Bryan Johnson, who has become an internet sensation and a global face of biohacking in recent times. Johnson is known for spending over $2 million a year on a team of doctors, data, supplements and routines, and he majorly focuses on reversing his age at any cost, the post added. His routine involves syncing his lighting with natural circadian rhythms, using red light therapy, undergoing frequent blood tests to monitor biomarkers, maintaining strict control over his calorie intake, and tracking hundreds of metrics related to his body's functions, but guess what? Finn isn't buying into that level of discipline. Finn shares how one can really be fit and healthy in a viral post At the end of the post, Finn mentioned that life is a lot more fun when he doesn't have to hit 50 benchmarks a day to convince himself that he is healthy. Following this, his new 'routine' now includes working out occasionally and not overdoing ice cream. Further pointing out a study, Finn says that research claims that glass bottles might contain more microplastics than plastic ones, highlighting how wellness trends can sometimes be deceptive or rooted in questionable science. 'It's all made up,' Finn said bluntly, adding, 'We've gone too far, and I think once people realise 90% of this bro science we've all bought into is completely made up, they'll swing back to just trying to live a good, healthy life without trying to quantify every metric.' Got rid of my Apple Watch. Got rid of my Whop. Got rid of my Oura ring. Muted Bryan JohnsonNo more sleep scores. No more recovery every part of my life caused more stress than it solvedIronically I've never slept better in my entire lifeI think we are… Netizens react to AI startup CEO's viral post As soon as the post surfaced on the internet, it quickly grabbed eyeballs, and netizens shared their thoughts as well. One asked, "Did you notice the benefits of Apple Watch / Whop? If so, why remove them if they were bettering you?" Did you notice the benefits of Apple Watch / Whop? If so, why remove them if they were bettering you? To which he responded, saying, They don't actually do anything for your health. They just quantify and measure everything. The benefits come from the impact of knowing all those metrics. They don't actually do anything for your health. They just quantify and measure benefits come from the impact of knowing all those yes there's positive impact, I also think there's a big negative impact nobody talks about just from the neuroticism… While yes, there's a positive impact, I also think there's a big negative impact nobody talks about just from the neuroticism it causes." "Switched my Apple Watch back to a normal (good looking) watch. Not only does it feel better because I don't optimise for everything - steps, constant notifications, etc - but it also looks 10x better." And replied, "My brain feels clearer." "Substitute time spent on configuring apps and meditation. And eat nutritionally dense foods," another added. Substitute time spent on configuring apps and meditation. And eat nutritionally dense foods.#WellbeingV3.0

Why didn't BTS' Jungkook hold solo live since military discharge? Fans weigh in on cap controversy as possible reason
The BTS member known for his record-breaking lengthy live broadcasts, has been unusually quiet since his military discharge on June 11. Despite co-hosting one with Jimin, fans are eagerly awaiting a solo broadcast. Jungkook's absence from live streams has sparked concern among fans, with some attributing it to his recent controversies. However, others believe it was a natural adjustment to his civilian life after being away for 18 months. Fans concerned over Jungkook's lack of Weverse updates The golden maknae (youngest member) of BTS was previously known for frequently engaging with fans through unannounced, late-night livestreams on the platform, specifically in 2023-24. His sudden absence from this routine has left some fans surprised and wondering about his whereabouts. They took to social media to raise questions such as "When is Jungkook going live? " and 'Why is he so quiet?' This social detox of the artist has also met with a wave of support from other fans, who argued that the singer has every right to take his time and shouldn't be pressured into maintaining a certain level of activity or interaction with his audience. They also listed down the possible reasons for the same. Fans attribute Jungkook's lack of solo lives to his latest controversies Recently, the Seven singer was under heavy scrutiny due to being embroiled in two "unpleasant things" just days after his military discharge. The day Jungkook got discharged, a Chinese woman attempted to break-in to his Seoul house. She allegedly loitered around his house for about 10 hours, waiting to meet him. The woman has been caught and is currently under police investigation. The next unfavorable incident occurred on June 13, during J-Hope's HOPE ON THE STAGE FINAL concert's soundcheck session. Jungkook was preparing for his surprise act, when he was seen donning a cap with a controversial text– "Make Japan Great Again". The phrase is considered to be politically right-inclined, as it stemmed from Donald Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan. Fans think these controversies have likely taken a toll on his mental state, which is why they're supporting and respecting his decision to stay away from the spotlight as long as he feels like.
