K media: What does “BTS 2.0” mean to each of you?
RM: We’ve thought about it a lot, but it’s hard to define it in just one way. If I had to, I’d say it’s about “balance.” Half of it is the fact that the seven of us have come back together again, and the other half is about moving forward and embracing change. It’s not easy, but that’s what makes it both exciting and fulfilling.
Jin: I think we need to become a bit more mature. Our thinking should deepen, and we need to grow in every aspect. I also want to work even harder in our activities.
SUGA: It’s a “new beginning.”
j-hope: I see it as taking another step forward as artists. Expressing ourselves as we are, while showing greater musical freedom and maturity—that’s what I think marks the beginning of “2.0.”
Jimin: Rather than attaching a grand meaning to it, I think the core is the same. Even if our way of expressing ourselves changes slightly, what matters most is continuing to strive, grow, and move forward—just as we always have.
V: I think it’s a story that includes growth. As time passes, new beginnings come naturally, but at the same time, it’s also an opportunity for BTS to show the experience and growth we’ve built through performing on stage.
Jungkook: It literally means something “new.” It represents a new direction in every sense. Personally, I also want to start with a new mindset.
QQ Music, China's biggest music platform, reveals that two copies of Arirang by BTS are being sold every second, and the album is expected to be certified Diamond today.
Guess you’ll just have to watch live to see the rest.

K media : Compared to the past, what is one thing that hasn’t changed?
RM: When I’m with the members, I become the version of myself that I like the most. It brings out a kind of innocence, almost like a childlike side of me. We often say that we have the most fun when we’re together. It’s not easy to find friends who feel like family like this.
Jin: Rather than something that hasn’t changed, I’d say what’s improved is that we’ve grown even closer. The natural laughter and playful energy we share when we’re together is still the same. Even now, if we find a good restaurant, we go eat together.
SUGA & V: Our passion for the stage and the love we have for performing will never change.
Jimin: There will always be challenges whenever we take on something new. That’s why we’ll continue to think carefully about what’s right and make our choices. But one thing that won’t change is our attitude, like "Swim,” we’ll keep moving forward without stopping.
j-hope & Jungkook: Our feelings toward ARMY will never change. We are always grateful, and we love you.
K media : Is there anything you would like to say to ARMY?
BTS: To ARMY who have waited for us for such a long time, we sincerely thank you. We missed you so much, and being able to stand together again as seven means everything to us. We’ll continue to meet you through our music, performances, the upcoming world tour, and many other activities. Please enjoy it comfortably - are you ready to have fun with us? We’ve prepared not only the album, but also many stages that we can enjoy together.
Let’s enjoy it all together. We truly love you.
ARMY, come dive into 'ARIRANG' with @bts_bighit!
