BTS’ golden maknae, Jungkook, is just weeks away from his military discharge on June 11, 2025, and ARMY is on high alert. Fans recently spotted Jungkook having dinner with his manager at a Seoul barbecue spot.. Though the exact date and location of the dinner aren’t confirmed, many believe the meetup was more than just a casual catch-up. Could this be the early planning of Jungkook’s next solo era?

After dropping his debut solo album “Golden” in November 2023, fans have been eagerly awaiting what comes next. This surprise outing has many thinking a second album could already be a possibility, possibly with a world tour to follow. Some fans even noted that Jungkook’s profile is active on Ticketmaster—despite him still being enlisted. And yes, that’s the same thing that happened before J-Hope’s post-discharge comeback. Coincidence? Maybe not!

Adding more fuel to the fire, the fan account @DCECOFICIAL claimed last month that a solo world tour might be kicking off in October 2025, running through January 2026. That timeline would give Jungkook a few months to prep after discharge. Fans are dreaming big with these exciting hints, thinking about a new album, shows, livestreams, and iconic dance routines.
With Jin and J-Hope already slaying solo stages, it’s only a matter of time before Jungkook reclaims the spotlight. Whether or not the dinner was business or just a casual hangout, one thing’s for sure: when Jungkook steps back into the music scene, it’s going to be a moment. Get ready, ARMY!
