On the occasion of the group's 12th anniversary, the seven members of the Korean band BTS reunited after completing their mandatory military service in their country. FESTA, the name of the celebration, brought together ARMY's from all over the world for two weeks, with in-person and online events.

Therefore, RM, V, Jimin, Jung-Kook, Suga, Jin and J-Hope reunited after the youngest band members had completed national service. The only one missing is Min Yoon-gi (Suga) who was serving as a social worker, so he was able to escape to reunite.

Solo-careers of the members

Despite being free now, the members will only work as a band again in March 2026, according to a spokesman for BTS representatives Hybe Agency. This is because some members boosted their solo careers while waiting for their fellow members to finish their military service

Example of this is Jung Ho-Seok (J-Hope) who just returned from his "Hope on the Stage" tour. Other members also had solo presence, such as Kim Nam-joo who released his studio album "Indigo" and Jimin who released FACE album in which he released his single "Like Crazy". Every member have this time to shine.

What was BTS last concert?

It has been 3 years since the band's last concert. "Yet to Come in Busan" was held on October 15, 2022, in South Korea. It was free both online and in person and marked Jin's entry into military service. It also marked a before and after, as the group used their older repertoire as a farewell.

But, ARMYS around the world didn't have to wait long as in June 2023 the band released "Take Two" the last song released by BTS celebrating their 10th anniversary. That was the last time the seven were together for their fans until next year, when they will return as the world's most famous band
