이제 2달 남짓만 기다리면 되네요. 언제나 손꼽아 기다려온 완전체를 곧 볼 수 있어요.
[talk] BTS is making a comeback as a full group, so it's not that long away.
Jin's recent activities have been conveyed through various changes, even without much commentary. The first thing that caught my eye on New Year's Day was that BTS's official Instagram account was completely empty. All previous posts had been removed, and the account was devoid of photos or text. Seeing the suddenly empty screen felt less like a simple cleanup and more like a preparation for a new beginning. It was a quiet but definite change.
This point naturally ties into BTS's full-group comeback schedule. The team has announced a full-group comeback on March 20, 2026, which is quite a while after Proof in June 2022. Jin has been spending his time separately through solo activities and concerts, and now it seems like they're moving in the same direction again. Rather than feeling like his individual activities have come to an end, it feels more like the flow is converging.
The handwritten letters released alongside the SNS updates were also a crucial moment in sharing Jin's recent activities. In the handwritten letters, written directly by the members to their fans, Jin expressed his gratitude for their patience. Rather than a refined sentence or formal greeting, these were handwritten messages, including a comeback date. The mere fact that a single number was handwritten left the impression that preparations had already reached a concrete stage. It was a moment when handwriting spoke louder than words.
Looking at these scenes one after another, Jin's current state seems closer to a time of organization and preparation than a period of noticeable activity. Rather than continuously showing something, he felt like he was hinting at what was to come through the choice to leave something blank. It also seemed like a moment before he puts aside the previous record and turns a new page. It was a time of change that could be felt without much explanation.
So, Jin's recent status is not so much due to the abundance of news, but rather because he's been quiet. In the empty social media screens, the brief handwritten messages, and the flow of a single date, he's already on his way to the next stage. Right now, he seems to be in the middle of that process, quietly, yet unstoppably.
