The band members RM, Jungkook, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, and V will also get to spend the holidays with their families and loved ones for the first time since their debut, according to the statement.

“BTS will be focusing on preparing for the concert and release of the new album that will mark the beginning of a ‘new chapter,'” according to the statement. They’re planning a concert in Seoul in March to connect with and communicate with fans in person.”
