Therefore, during the livestream, the idol gave more insight into how the collaboration came about and also stated that he's aiming to showcase the collection in other museums and institutions, too. Here's what the idol stated:

"We've been preparing for about a year, and it looks like we'll spend another year finalizing the layout and getting everything ready. And maybe after San Francisco, there's a possibility it could tour other museums, but we'll need to have discussions with them first. For now, we're just focusing on San Francisco. We are considering expanding it to other institutions, but this is where things stand for the moment."

On the other hand, the idol also talked about how the words "I love you" seemed to impress him a lot, and he found those words quite beautiful. He continued to state that these words also perfectly encapsulate the feelings he shared towards ARMYs. Here's what he said:

In other news, all BTS members are currently preparing for the group's next comeback, which is scheduled to be released in Spring 2026.
