BTS Jungkook was recently part of J-hope’s Weverse livestream. To make the livestream more fun, the record-making singer has shared a definitive date of when he would return from the military. So, when will Jungkook come back from the military? Let’s look at the date and the anticipation for BTS’ reunion which will change the trajectory of K-pop music in 2025.

BTS Jungkook Reveals Date of Military Return

BTS star Jungkook has confirmed a date for his military return to fans. The “Golden” crooner will meet fans on June 11 after officially getting discharged from his mandatory military service. But that’s just the beginning of what promises to be an extraordinary year for the global K-pop phenomenon.

During the livestream, Jungkook playfully teased that he’s collected quite a few military stories, though he’s still deciding which ones he can share with fans. “You might run away when you hear some of them,” he joked, prompting J-hope to chime in about the hilarious adventures Jungkook and Jimin experienced as dormmates during their military training.

BTS’s Grand Reunion: More Than Just a Comeback in 2025

The summer of 2025 isn’t just about Jungkook’s return – it marks the long-awaited reunion of all seven BTS members. After a three-year hiatus that felt like an eternity for fans, the group is planning something special: a commemorative album that pays homage to their 2015 masterpiece, “The Most Beautiful Moment in Life” (Hwayangyeonhwa).

HYBE’s founder Bang Si Hyuk confirmed these plans, revealing that discussions about the anniversary album have already taken place. BTS leader RM also dropped hints during a candid conversation with Suga: “2025 is when most of our members complete their service, and it’s the tenth anniversary of ‘The Most Beautiful Moment in Life.’ We’re going to try and keep that promise.”

Looking Ahead: BTS World Tour on the Horizon

The excitement doesn’t stop with the album. Industry experts, including NH Investment & Securities researcher Lee Hwa-Jung, predict a BTS world tour in 2026. This would mark the group’s triumphant return to global stages, with Lee suggesting it could dramatically boost HYBE’s success.

For ARMY, the wait may feel long, but the future holds something remarkable: not just the return of individual members, but the reunion of a group that has redefined K-pop and touched millions of lives worldwide. As June 2025 approaches, one thing is certain – BTS’s next chapter promises to be worth every moment of anticipation.
