According to Irish outlet "The Irish Sun," Grouse Lodge studio head Paddy Dunning had revealed that the K-pop group had allegedly finished recording for a past MJ track. This track was recorded sometime around 2006 in Ireland.The track was one of several unfinished works Jackson composed during his time there, collaborating with producers like Rodney Jerkins and rapper Nephew. Dunning revealed that recording sessions had resumed in 2024 and stated:“The sessions started last year, and we have already had the Korean boy band BTS over with us in Grouse Lodge, recording one of the songs.”Given the K-pop band's global status, their current presence in the U.S., and the group’s anticipated 2026 comeback, made fans believe the news. However, both BigHit Music and Michael Jackson’s team firmly denied the claims.BigHit stated,“BTS has neither visited Grouse Lodge Studio in Ireland nor taken part in any recording sessions at the location for the mentioned project. The group is not involved in the tribute album in any capacity,”Fans who had been thrilled about the legendary collaboration were understandably disappointed. Still, the excitement around BTS’ upcoming Spring 2026 comeback continues to keep the ARMY buzzing.
