It is a few weeks until the BTS reunion, following the scheduled military discharge for J-Hope, RM, V, Jimin, Jungkook, and Suga in June. The group entered the Global Spotify Chart in October 2021 and has retained its position on the chart even after 1300 days. According to fan accounts on X, the group entered at the number 5 position, and while their position has fluctuated, they never left the chart. The group reportedly has 25 million monthly listeners on the streaming channels.

In addition to their group achievements, the singers continue to achieve in their solo endeavours. In other news, Jungkook became the first K-pop soloist to spend 700 days on the Global Spotify Artists Chart. Additionally, RM and Tablo's new single, Stop The Rain, debuted at #1 on the Billboard Rap Digital Songs Charts.


ARMYs are now anticipating the reunion of the group and have expressed hopes for new music in the upcoming year. While the group members have been working on their solo projects, it is unclear if new projects will be released this year. It is also unclear if the BTS FESTA will take place following the group members reunion.

In other news, BTS' Jin is scheduled to release his second solo album, Echo, on May 16. Additionally, he is organising a hi-touch fan meet following the release of his album on May 22.
