BTS' Jungkook believes the synergy of Bangtan and 2025 will be incredible

In the same interview, BTS' Jungkook revealed that while he understands that ARMYs are impatiently waiting for the group to reunite in 2025, he doesn't think it's too far along in the future.

The Euphoria singer explained that because the members have halted their group activities temporarily to pursue their solo careers at the moment, they feel the absence of their fellow members even more, and ARMYs feel the same.

Fans are counting the days until the year 2025, when all the members will have wrapped up their military and solo commitments and reconvened as a seven-member group again. Furthermore, BTS' Jungkook chimed in that because all seven members are not promoting together, the wait for the septet to reunite seems long and endless.

However, the Standing Next to You crooner assured fans that the synergy of BTS in 2025 will be incredible, and he will be looking forward to it.

"I think the synergy of BTS in 2025 will be incredible. I am so looking forward to it."

ARMYs have taken to X to share their views on the golden maknae's statement and revealed they cannot wait for BTS' much-awaited reunion in 2025.

In a past interview with the American publication Variety, BTS' Jungkook spoke about BTS' much-awaited reunion in 2025. When asked if the temporary break from group activities allows him some time for rest or if sleep continues to evade him, BTS' Jungkook tactfully responded by stating that "rest' can be interpreted in different ways. For some, it's time off work, and for others, it's learning a new skill or focusing on bettering their craft. After this period, when BTS' reconvenes, they will be better versions of their past selves.

“I think it’s important that we all take some time off like this for us. And after this period, I think we’ll be even greater BTS.”

Notably, ARMYs even joked that if BTS were to do a world tour in 2025, there would be a bloodbath to acquire tickets for their concerts, as the Butter singers continue to climb the ladder of success.
