We’ve still got months to go before BTS (방탄소년단) makes their first group comeback since ending their military hiatus. Thankfully, we don’t have to wait for updates from the group. Recently, the members have been sharing photos and videos from their time together in Los Angeles.
Yesterday (7th August 2025, Thursday), Jimin (지민) took to Instagram to share photos of the group having a meal at an LA restaurant. The group is currently in the city, reportedly working on some songs for their new album. The members are preparing to return to the music scene early next year, marking their first full group comeback since all members completed their mandatory military service.
In the set of photos, Jimin shared an inside look at what the members have been doing while in LA. It appears the group are spending quality time with each other and reconnecting after being apart while in the military. In the photos, RM, Suga (슈가), J-Hope (제이홉), Jimin and V (뷔) looked well-rested and relaxed while dining at the undisclosed restaurant. J-Hope also shared a video taken at the same restaurant, showing off the group’s bond.
It’s unknown where Jungkook (정국) was during the gathering as he wasn’t in the photos or videos. Meanwhile, Jin (진) is currently embarking on his “RunSeokjin Ep. Tour” world tour. The idol will join his groupmates once he concludes his final two shows in Amsterdam later this weekend. For those wondering, BTS has been in LA for quite some time, as some members were spotted at public events as early as last month.
BTS’ trip to LA is likely for their highly anticipated comeback album. Fans speculate that the group are meeting with producers and fellow artists to work on new songs after Lil Yachty and Charlie Puth appeared on J-Hope’s recent Instagram posts. Of course, the trip isn’t all for work because RM shared that he also visited Disneyland. Some lucky fans also spotted him and Suga shopping together in the city.
It appears the BTS members are doing well, balancing work and fun while in LA. We can’t wait to see what the global icons have in store for fans. In the meantime, check out some of their posts from LA:
