Jungkook is currently serving as a corporal in the South Korean military and is expected to complete his service in June 2025. During his time in the military, he has remained active in the entertainment industry, releasing his single "Never Let Go" and featuring in the travel reality series "Are You Sure?!" with fellow BTS member Jimin.
Fans anticipate that Jungkook will continue to explore his solo career after he finishes his military service. He could potentially release new music or collaborate with other artists, as he has done in the past with hits like "Seven" and "Stay Alive."
As for BTS as a group, their highly anticipated reunion is expected to take place in late 2025, with plans for a new album and a world tour. Despite speculation about a delay to 2026, HYBE has confirmed that group activities remain on track for 2025, with discussions already underway for their comeback. The septet's last album as a whole team was Proof in 2022, which also marked their ninth year together as a group. The album included the lead single "Yet to Come (The Most Beautiful Moment)."
