Anticipation is building among BTS fans as the group members begin preparations for their upcoming album, scheduled for release next spring. RM was the first to arrive in Los Angeles, followed by Suga, Jimin, and Jungkook, who were recently spotted at the airport.

During their arrival, several videos circulated online showing Suga appearing to avoid reporters’ questions. Some fans interpreted his response in the context of the recent controversy surrounding a DUI incident, during which false reports had been published and later corrected. This led to mixed reactions within the BTS ARMY community, with some supporting Suga’s decision not to engage with the media. However one fan had a neutral perspective and said that Suga always walks fast at airports, and never engages with reporters only because he doesn't want to trouble other passengers. "It's nothing different," a fan wrote.

BTS reunited last month after three years apart, including 18 months of military service. Jin returned in June 2024, followed by J-Hope in October. RM and V also came back in June, closely followed by Jimin and Jungkook. Suga returned on June 21. The group held their first broadcast for fans on July 1, where they discussed their future plans, confirming they are working on their next album while Jin wraps up his world tour.
