On August 17, ARMYs lost it when BTS showed up in a surprise 7-minute Weverse live from a Los Angeles beach. All seven kings, RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook, finally appeared together again, months after completing their military services. The group laughed, joked around, and reminded fans: “We’re alive!” while Jimin turned heads going shirtless, and V cracked everyone up with a hug attack on Jin.
BTS went live from the beach for a 7-minute greeting, attracting over 4 MILLION viewers on Weverse.

Jungkook was spotted holding the camera, filming as RM assured fans, “We’re doing well.” Meanwhile, Suga teased that he’s working on the group’s new music, expected to be released next year. Jin, who recently wrapped up his tour, said, “I just joined the guys here in the U.S. Everything’s going great.” It was their first official OT7 moment since June, when the last members completed their service.
