#bts comeback

[sugar-petals]

Heyyy i wondering if you are ever gonna return to doing bts tarot reading they were so good

had an idea for a topic since i'm so curious about it (and i'm sure my fellow army wonder about this, too), and i need to practice my predictive readings, so here it goes:

TAROT FORECAST: what's BTS' comeback gonna be all about?

deck used: golden wheel tarot (classic rider-waites below)

comeback theme: [TWO OF WANDS] - something colliding, belligerent, combative, competitive here? in the golden wheel deck, this card's about butting heads. duels. karate kid. fist fight. dispute. rap battle. two interests against each other. talking about opposition. strife. there could be a reference or similarity to "fire", that song's energy might pop up. hot hot! the theme's about what they're up against, or have been, or what they want to challenge. in any case, not a soft concept. no kisses and roses and fantasy and pastels (that's for the album as a whole as we'll funnily see later). they'll tell haters what bts is all about. if you want an example of a two of wands themed song, that's taylor swifts's "bad blood", or britney's "womanizer". or anything eminem has ever done. confronting someone head on: they will go "daechwita" on us i fear. this card feels like the opposite of "boy with luv" but a lot more heated. it might be like "not today", super energetic, fast-paced. the ram or sheep is the animal here, we get an aries-flavored explosive comeback. which makes sense. aries starts the zodiac.

visuals/music video: [FIVE OF WANDS] - more staffs/wands, yep that's in line with the fierce theme and confirmation. this card is about upbeat playfighting. maknae line energy. there could be action all over the place in the video. the outfits may be martial. green red and yellow colors here, with slight blue hints. golden accents. those are strong visuals, not romantic impulses. something about hand to hand combat? but not destructively severe, more friendly fire. fun stuff, athletic vibes, showing how you get in shape. this card is the training, the card before (two of wands) is the final battle. so this lines up. the courageous visuals are going to showcase their ambitions, it's going to be more male gaze for sure; wands are phallic, combat is typically masculine, remember that the tarot listed them as "batons" in the early days. so we might see baseball bats, flares, torches, sticks, or weaponry? like in "dionysus". the wands theme in this spread is too obvious to ignore, it has to be literal somehow. just like KARD's jiwoo is the queen of swords because she wields the sword, and BM is the king of wands because he wields the hammer (dumb litty mv) as a flex of power. in any case, the music video has all the members handling props. wands are tactile.

lyrics/vocals: [SIX OF WANDS] - just how many wands are in this spread! i can't believe this. well this one is the triumphant card of victory and reward, and victory calls and shouts out loud. the title could be something like hero or we've done it. no mumble rap here. no softness, again. no "house of cards", no "spring day" vocals. winning and conquering and slaying is what they could write about here. "the kings are back", that kind of lyrical theme. starting out strong. if you want an example for a six of wands song, IKON's "anthem" perfectly encapsulates this card. the vocals will be demonstrative, "mic drop" style. can't see a ballad as the main single here. they lead with confidence and accolades and achievement. another trophy, my haters carry em! that's what the six of wands declares. positive message, we have arrived swift like a horse, waving our banner, we are confident in our laurels. this might also suggest a highly successful person joining their album for a collab, likely an older male celebrity. respect is a huge lyrical theme. struggle paying off, nothing to hide.

choreo: [THE HIEROPHANT] - since this is the major arcana in the reading, their dance is the killing part here, the main thing. this card speaks of experience and sticking to old values, it will be serious and difficult to execute, but drawing on what they did before. this will be a traditional bts choreo, this card does not speak of futurism. remember that the hierophant is the priest or pope of the tarot, so this is like assembling the whole vatican. the religious theme, i don't know how this plays out (blessing the masses type of moves with both hands up?), since i associate catholicism in kpop with taemin?! so maybe the choreo is taeminesque, T-poses, fluid yet accurate, jimin-adjacent, which is 100% good news, this choreo will be another big pillar in their discography. also, there will be focus on namjoon - the hierophant is the wise old guy after all, not that our boy joon is ancient but he thinks like it. maybe the hyungs come out dressed up as fancy as one would expect the pope to look like, in all white. gowns in bts choreos are nothing new. capes, ceremonial style cloaks. in any case, the older members get their limelight, and bts stick to their style.

what's the album like: [KNIGHT OF CUPS] - wait a minute. this contradicts the fast and loud and proud title track of the album completely! all wands, all battle, things explode, suddenly we get those lovey-dovey-feely artistic diplomatic phlegmatic cups? the rose tinted glasses are back, so are the ballads, like what? this is definitely a return to bts' usual idealistic body of work and a namjoon signature, all feel-good and slow rather than confrontational. cups don't quarrel with weapons and fire. this one is elevated, gentle, even temperament energy. offering love and sweetness and we miss-yous. begone is the bad blood idea now. no more wands warriors. knight on a horse, but he's taking care of you now, the fighting off enemies part is done lmao! so, after the karate kid theme made the opponents back off, we return to some very sincere songs. are they gonna make us cry? oh yes. will there be sensual songs and poetry? also yes. it's just hilarious to me how the comeback is all action and martial arts and then you look at the album as a whole and it's a message of peace, chivalry, here we come with a carriage, we love you all, please accept our message of love and art. TXT has a cups kind of concept, wands would be more like monsta x going crazy! i'm still shocked about this u-turn, honestly. but it feels very bangtan to have a conciliatory comeback album that is mellow, pleasant, quiet in nature, healthy masculinity. so, don't expect noise songs front to back. i love this knight of cups style album idea, bts will serve their best prince charming.

conclusion: wands energy all over. fierce title track, but: romantic album. interesting! let's check back to this when the comeback drops.

hiii i really like reading your work, it’s always so detailed and precise (and sososo accurate) i was wondering if you could write an OT7 headcannon/imagine about them seeing you for the first time after they finish their military time (pls make it fluff)

💌 Reply:

hiii there💜 first THANK YOU for this unbelievably sweet ask, and for loving the details I pour into these worlds. 🥺 your words mean everything to me... i’m so sorry this took ages - I really needed a break. However Hobis concert had me vibrating and seeing all the members together and AHH SEEING YOONGI gave me such a boost (and i definitely didn't cry like ten times ahhh). I tried to channeled all that emotion into these reunions, praying it’s what you wanted... if not feel free to ask again! anyway... we almsot made it! — c —💜

KIM NAMJOON (RM)

THE DAY HE RETURNS

Public Facade

stands stiffly at the press conference

uniform far from starched

his knuckles whiten around the mic

reporter asks

“Was it lonely?” “Soldiers don’t get lonely...” 

he lies to the press

his eyes scanning the crowd for you (kinda hoping you're not there, not having to deal with ARMY that came although they told not to) - [I' m sorry but I ahd to write this, I was soooo mad...]

FIRST NIGHT HOME

his place is dark when he enters

no fanfare, just the hum of the fridge

he drops his duffel by the door

combat boots echoing in the stillness

moonlight stripes the floor where you stand

you're clutching a pot of sikye (sweet rice drink)

steam curling like a ghost between you

His Reaction

Physical

he freezes

rigid posture drilled into him for 547 days collapses

shoulders slump, head bows

a tremor runs through him

Verbal

broken whisper

“You… waited.”

Action

stumbles forward

boots abandoned mid-step

crushes you to his chest

face buried in your neck

he doesn’t cry (yet)

he shakes, silent and violent

“They yelled… every night. Said I moved too slow. Thought too much.” 

his grip on you tightens

“I counted stars in the trenches to stay sane. Named one after you.”

= filled with poems scratched in margins

“DMZ Dawn: Fog like regret / Gun oil and frost / I dreamt of her laugh.”

unopened, expiry date passed

“Saved it… for you.”

smooth, grey stone

lifted from the ceasefire line

places it in your palm

“Held this when the nightmares came. Felt like… holding us.”

CONFESSION

he can’t sleep

you find him on the balcony, staring at Seoul’s skyline

“I forgot how to be Kim Namjoon...” 

voice raw

“Just Sergeant Kim. Orders. Silence.”

you pull his military jacket from shoulders, wrapping him in the hoodie he had left for you

His Breaking Point

he turns, eyes glistening

“I heard ARMY’s cheers today,,, finally, althogh they should not be there. Thought of your voice…”

Arrival at His Apartment

kicks off military boots dramatically

“Never. Again. Do you know they made me use generic shampoo? It was a war crime.”

spots the feast you cooked: samgyeopsal, kimchi jjigae, a cake shaped like his face

“YAH! Is that me?! Am I delicious?!” 

cackles, then hugs you so tight your feet lift

“I missed your cooking. And… you...”

UNSPOKEN STRUGGLES

you catch him staring blankly at his uniform hanging on the door

You: “Was it hard?” Jin: “Psh! Hard? I charmed generals. Taught them TikTok dances!”

but when you touch his shoulder, his smile wavers

“…Okay, the beds were rocks. And the snoring! Ugh, louder than Jungkookie.”

rolls over at 3 AM

voice muffled in your hair

“Sometimes I’d look at the stars and pretend ARMY’s lightsticks were under them. Silly, right?”

before you answer, he fake-snores

“ZZzz… military discharge ZZzz…”

raw piano, no vocals

stops mid-chord

“They treated me like glass. ‘Don’t lift that, Min-ssi! Don’t stress!’”

THE DAY HE RETURNS

at the base gates...

he marches out in perfect formation

posture razor-straight, expression unreadable behind aviators

"Sergeant Jung, dismissed!"

cameras flash as fans scream

he offers a flawless salute, jaw tight

"Yes, sir! Proud to serve!"

his eyes dart through the crowd like searchlights

"Where is she?"

Sound

choked gasp

then a broken, high-pitched "Yah...!"

buries his face in your neck, sobbing

gog tags dig into your collarbone

"You came..."

"But nights were… dark. So dark."

What Breaks Him

you touch his back (just a light brush)

"Missed this. Missed you. Let’s never stop moving."

BONUS

puts on his old "Hope World" hoodie

grabs your hand then drags you to Han River Park

"Let’s feed the ducks! And…" 

pulls a tiny box from his pocket

it's matching necklaces

"So everyone knows you’re mine."

when you laugh, his smile finally reaches his eyes

PARK JIMIN

THE DAY HE RETURNS

he exits posture razor-straight

face carved into stoicism

press cameras flash

he offers a flawless salute, jaw tight

but when a reporter shouts, "Any message for ARMY?" his composure wavers

eyes darting through the crowd

he rasps:

"I... just want to go home."

FIRST NIGHT HOME

heart pounding

keys rattle in the lock

his eyes snap to the crowd

“Hug someone...” 

he rasps with a smirk

but mic catches the crack in his voice

FIRST NIGHT HOME

you wait at his house, heart hammering after an instant police call

scared after somoeone tried to break in

Physical

drops his duffel

Your Response

you touch his wrist

light, so he doesn’t reflexively strike

then you hum “Magic Shop” until his breathing steadies

"They dropped us in mountains. No food. No light. Just… cold.”

Taehyung (bts) !★

[kanmom51]

OT7 are back - 1 July 2025

It's been 3 years. Almost. Just. And they are back.

In JK's words:

FINALLY!!!!

Full subs aren't out yet. I'm not even sure if I'm going to do a full rundown on this one, but either way, there are a few things I would love to address at the moment.

First of all...

We will be getting a full comeback in Spring 2026!!

Album plus tour!!

And I love to pay attention to the little things they say, so I'm going to mention what I thought of it.

Spring 2026 Album and tour - they said it.

That's 9 months away.

And yet, they also mentioned 6 months.

So... it could be that in their minds they aren't connecting the dots and to them it feels like 6 months away, if you're thinking "well, it's summer, and there is Autumn and Winter to go until Spring", it could make sense?

But you know what else might make sense too?

That before that full comeback in Spring, they are planning to drop a single in 6 months time.

Give us a taste of BTS.

An entree (starter as my US followers would call it) - a first course before our full meal to come.

Who knows.

In any case it's something to look forward to.

Another little tidbit we got, and I have to say "thank you Tae" for this one, is that they will be working on their music in the US of A. Yes sir. Our boys will be spending a chunk of their time in the US. And it sounds like it's happening (at least starting) when Jin is still on tour. Talk about a music camp as well, maybe. You know that would make for amazing content, right? Living and working together again. Just putting it out there in case BH staff haven't thought of it already (which trust me, they did).

And if I'm mentioning them working in the USA, then why not mention that Hybe America has a new CEO, Isaac Lee. Congrats!! Someone that clearly will be helping the company's expansion into the South American market. A man who is openly gay !! No shame. No hiding. It's just "this is part of who I am". Would love that to be something out boys could wear with pride as well. Maybe. One day. Maybe moving business to the US is part of that strategy too. To be more open and free. A gal can hope...

Anyway, what we do know, for now, is that they will be working on ot7 music in the States, which will mean extended stays as well. It's not something we haven't talked about in the past. Them spending longer periods of time outside of SK for their work (not necessarily when on tour).

There were definitely some interesting moments during this super chaotic live, as per usual when it comes to ot7 lives.

I would like to touch on a few moments in the live. A few things I want to talk about, things I felt need mentioning.

I think I will start with a couple of somewhat negatives. Moments that have been running wild on my timeline, moments I have something to say about.

First one is this.

There is a reason I added the photo and not the gif.

I don't like taking edited moments out of context.

I've always said that.

And this one is exactly the same.

The gif or clip circulating, spreading like fire, is an edited version of the moment. And it's all about the "JK is jealous", "JK isn't used to sharing JM" narrative, which I'm sorry, but has grown so old at this point. The way people are talking you'd think that JK just served in the military with JM alone. A unit all to themselves. In the wilderness. No one around them but themselves. Kind of their lonely island dream of taking each other... Seriously? Ugh. The two were in the military, yes together, but most definitley not alone. We have not only our common sense to rely on here. We have pics and stories and autographs and we know they made friends and no, he didn't have JM all to his own. Far from it. Not only didn't he have him all to himself, he had to hold back with the PDA, they both did, we heard it from JM in their live. This wasn't about that. JK doesn't feel "threatened" by Tae. Seriously.

This here is the full moment:

You see what I see?

JK's reaction, the sitting back, the face...

There are two options here, neither are about Tae grabbing JM.

Either he saw something on screen that pissed him off (wouldn't be a first), I personally am leaning more towards this first one; or he's not loving the way JM is sort of kind of deprecating himself. Or in this case hiding his face (there was the whole discussion before that laughing at JM's hair and forehead and face), unhappy with how he looks.

And we know he isn't a fan of that either. JM talking himself down.

I think it's time to drop the whole JK jealous narrative. These two young men have one of the healthiest loving long term relationships I've seen. JK being openly jealous the way people seem to think he is is most certainly a toxic trait, one that some fans love for him to have, as it may add the necessary drama (for them to enjoy the pairing) to this beautiful strong, steady, domestic relationship. But I'm sorry, I just think it's wrong. It always has been. Yes, we've seen some instances when JK clearly was jealous (I've spoken about this a lot in my older posts - what I thought that jealousy might have been, mostly not about insecurity in the relationship and more about not being able to be open about it, claim JM openly), but those are few and far apart, especially in the later years.

I really do believe people are getting this one wrong. Had to mention that.

The second moment I wanted to address is the Yoongi hearing JM sing saga, lol.

I will be honest with you guys, I have no idea what that was about.

🤣🤣

No, seriously!!

There is the above translation.

And there is this one:

Oh, there are more. But I think you get the gist.

There are the Yoonminers, and Tkks to follow, that are celebrating it as idk what (seriously, if this was JM and Yoongi spending time together it's kind of not great that JM didn't even remember the moment and had to be reminded of it).

On the one hand, you have those that are saying it's clearly a joke. That it's a made up story (the Yoongi playing the guitar and JM singing at 3 am). JM not knowing about it happening a couple of days ago, to start with, kind of hints to that, doesn't it? Maybe?

I will be honest with you guys, I have no idea. Not sure either way. As in if this actually happened or not.

But either way, the way people were running with this JM and Yoongi hang out.

OMG.

And clinging like crazy to that word. "Romantic" in Korean. Like we haven't heard it before. Like when said in the Jikook context - the articles promoting AYS?! before it came out, JK mentioning it during AYS?! and Jikook's live after they were discharged - it was immediately shot down as "it's not that kind of context", but here, when it's about Yoonmin it is?

Well, this is the meaning of the word:

And there is this:

So yeah, even if this was an actual thing that happened, I'd say to Yoonminers to hold their horses with the whole "how romantic of them" shit they are going with.

These are times I really hate not knowing the language. 😭😭

Time to move on to the fun parts.

You know, the JK and JM finding it hard to keep their hands or other body parts off each other even though they are sat quite awkwardly apart.

And when I say other body parts I mean, back leaning on JK, even when he has a full ass back rest to lean on but you prefer to lean on your boyfriend's leg.

Or lay your head on thigh.

What better than an almost 2 minute compilation of the touchy feely couple?

cr./@calicocat13

And let's talk for a second about their hand shake. Because you know, they always have to give us at least one of those, right? The lingering hand shake, not letting go, JK's thumb there...

Also, what was that hand shake about exactly?

There is also this:

Spot the difference.

With all of that going on you'd almost think those two were a couple, wouldn't you?

WE also got to hear from the two and the others about the hours on end the two have been practicing their singing, their harmonizing. It's something we have heard in the past from them as well. But it's more than that. We get 2 people that are connected to the core. 2 people that need no words between them to know what the other is wanting/thinking/going to do. All it takes is a look and they know. It's not something new to us. We've explored this many times. How all it takes sometimes is for one to look at the other, no words needed, for them to understand each other. But we got it here too.

Like I said, I'm not going to get into every little moment, but I do want to add this before I go. It's sometimes hard to follow, because of the chaos and having to read the subtitles and figuring out who said what. But even with all of that it was hard not to notice that JK who has his way of disassociating at times, was, as usual, attentive to JM, and he also did his usual: "when it's about Minnie I have to nod in agreement or give an approving "aha" or add something very couplie to the conversation" thing.

Including when Minnie is talking about how comfy he feels to be in his bed now that he's home. Scratch that. Their bed. There, I've said it.

It's funny it ended up thatJM was the one asked directly how he's doing now? Hobi did try to throw in an open question for the discharged members, and Tae did chime in only to be called a liar by the other, lol. But JK and RM said nothing, and they all kind of moved on from that.

To sum it up in one word, that befits almost every single ot7 live:

CHAOTIC.

And yet, with all that chaos it's just one of the happy moments possible.

Happy chaos.

Seeing all 7 finally back together. Military service done and dusted.

Knowing there is a plan in place for a BTS comeback. Album. World tour. BTS ot7 content.

CANNOT WAIT!!!

We know they're cooking...

I'm imagining them working with various people, making connections, and when the work day is over, accepting invitations to go out for a meal and/or drinks. I can see Namjoon and Yoongi definitely accepting those invites.

[so who took this pic of Jimin? hmmmmm?]

Jungkook is probably really cooking... literally, cooking for everybody. I know he is.

I know its barely been a week since they've arrived here but I hope they are all able to get out and live some life in between their work days and go see some concerts and just have some normal experiences while in the U.S.

I hope they've gone to the beach to watch the sunset already. I hope Jungkook's rented a Harley and happily riding the streets.

Maybe Yoongi will get a chance to run over to Vegas and see the site where the proposed baseball stadium might be built for the Athletics baseball team when it moves there. I have no idea at what stage is the planning.

I wonder if Jimin and Jungkook will take the opportunity to go ahead and film some AYS episodes while in California.

Whether or not they do, sounds like they have enough for a few episodes in the can from Switzerland and Vietnam. Will this be the way they convey their military stories to us? Ten episodes of Are You Sure where they let us in on their new set of inside jokes? Never ending laughing at the situations they found themselves in? It's easy to laugh now, I bet it wasn't funny while it was happening.

They already used all of JK's music in the first season of the show. Other than songs from Muse (yes to hot humid scenes in Vietnam with Be Mine playing, rollicking on the beach in their birthday suits... oops sorry what was I saying?) Other than that, what music/songs are they going to use for the soundtrack for these new episodes? HMMMM????? Could there be some new music for that in the works too?

it’s known how the military operates but namjoon exhaustedly saying after discharge that he can finally “have a life again” and taehyung worrying about how the army dropped his ability to empathize sounds beyond concerning

An Eventful 1st of July.

We are 7 months deep into 2025.

What's going on? I'm still in March.

My morning started pretty well if someone were to ask me. 😌

I got a notification from Jimin's IG, and without seeing it, I was already smiling because he posted something. Wow! This boy is so active now, I am loving this era so much! Will it last? 🫢

He is in his element, and it makes me so happy to see him shine like that. Truly! 🥹

I was working when I saw a weverse notification on my phone. I didn't see it right away, unfortunately. I went to see who it was from. I clicked on it, and I saw this picture.

(That face! Ahhh the cheeks, the small eyes 😍!!!! Also, JK with his big smile is cute)

If I could explain the way my whole face sparkled! OMG! He is so freaking cute! I was excited to see it was a full BTS live.

I was smiling and with a sense of happiness to see them all there, and I could feel how happy Jimin was.

And then he said this:

(GIF from @jung-koook)

And I think this is why I was that happy, I truly felt like I could feel his happiness through the screen.

(I had 3 coworkers asking, "Who was making me smile like that?" And "is that a man that's making you smile on the phone?" The joke runs deep in my job lol, my relationship status is very much of interest to my team, but that's an irrelevant story here, lol, but yes, team, it was a man that had me smiling at my phone 😂)

HE IS THE LIFE OF THE PARTY!

[Did you see what I did there? 😜]

Seriously, just looking at the members around him, doting on him, laughing because of him. Especially Hobi. It was so endearing.

I know this sounds very biased, but Jimin really is the heart of BTS, and nobody can deny that. Whoever does, they don't know sh*t!

They had him seating in the middle, (he even said that lol). Tae was about to eat him for dessert 🍨 LOL, it was so lovely. I love seeing people loving him. I want to see him protected from the bad of this world and happy.

I was also happy to see Suga. There was something in his aura today. I felt like he felt safe and full of love with his members. 💜

Jimin is fighting with that short hair 🤣

Every time he removes his hair from his forehead with his fingers like that, it triggers the cute side of me. ☺️

-

He pretty much alluded that his focus will be on BTS next album and I am excited about that because I really hope he is very involved with it, the music Jimin has touched from BTS have been pure art. In addition to his solo career, the man is the epitome of success. I also like this because I want him to have time to focus on his solo career, so I think it's great if he does this after BTS is done with their comeback or while he is working on their album. However, in my opinion, Jimin is the type of artist who likes to have his sole focus in one album project at a time. He creates out of his feelings a lot from what I heard him saying so far. So I think that he won't work on PJM3 a lot, if anything, while he is working for the group's album. Nonetheless, we shall see. ☺️

I also saw the news about Scooter B. And it seems to be good news. I am not sure yet. I just want that man 1000 kilometers deep in the sea away from Jimin. That's all. If BTS wants to work with him, I have no opinions. I just want him to stay away from Jimin and his solo career! That man is evil, and everything he touches ends up de💀d.
