BTS’ J-Hope shares pics of beach outing and studio sessions of the group following Military discharge

J-Hope recently shared several photos from the group's relaxed beach day.

After spending nearly two years apart to fulfill their mandatory South Korean military service, the members of BTS are finally reunited — and they seem to be striking the perfect balance between work and play as they prepare for their much-awaited group comeback.

J-Hope recently shared several photos from the group's relaxed beach day. He was joined by his fellow BTS members RM, V, Jung Kook, Jin, Suga, and Jimin, giving fans one of the first glimpses of the reunited septet since their military release.

They can be seen posing together in one of the pictures while admiring a stunning sunset over the water. Jin is seen making his signature peace sign, and Jimin is seen appearing at ease with a beach towel draped over his shoulders.

Other pictures show the members having some light-hearted fun, exploring local stores, and doing some retail therapy together, much to the delight of fans who cherish every update.

The announcement comes nearly two months after BTS's tearful on-camera reunion in June, marking the group's official reunion following years apart due to enlistment.

Only a few weeks after RM, V, Jimin, and Jung Kook finished their service, Suga, the final member to finish his service, was released in late June. For the first time since 2022, the seven members can now reunite as Jin and J-Hope, who were the first to enlist, have also finished their military service.

In a surprise Weverse livestream on July 1, the group made an appearance side by side and opened up about their excitement and 2026 plans for a big comeback. The heartfelt livestream not only reassured ARMY worldwide but also ignited immense anticipation for what is shaping up to be one of the biggest returns in global pop history.
