BTS are back. Almost four years ago, the K-pop heavyweights went on hiatus in order to fulfill their mandatory South Korean military service. Last summer, they announced that they were back to work and getting ready to release a new album in the first half of 2026. Today, the news is official: ARIRANG, billed as BTS’ fifth studio album (though it’s more like their tenth), is coming on March 20. It’s their first album since 2020. We don’t know much else about it just yet except it has 14 songs and that’s the cover art above.
