What BTS fans think about the album announcement
After BTS announced the album on the official Japanese fan club, ARMY reacted on social media. Primarily, fans are already trying to guess when BTS’ next Korean comeback will be based on this upcoming Japanese release.
One fan speculated on Reddit, “I can see them maybe releasing a new single in early May as that would tie in with Billboard Awards and then new album in July?”
“… based on more recent history, I would guess we’re going to get a mixtape 1-2 months beforehand (aka April-May) and then the next album/release not long after THE BEST comes out…,” a fan wrote on Reddit.
