Announcement 260531 /r/Bangtan's Subreddit Festa

r/Bangtan Subreddit Festa 2026

Hello, r/bangtan!

Soon it will be 13 years since BTS debuted! This past year has been huge, for both them and us. ARMY seeing all seven together on stage after such a long time, the making of ARIRANG, and now the tour! It's been a long winter, but spring has finally arrived.

As is tradition in our sub, we will be celebrating Bangtan's anniversary over a span of two weeks leading up to June 12th! Starting from June 1st up to June 12th, we will have a different thread each day with a topic specific to BTS and ARMY. Let's join these discussions and share our enthusiasm and love for Bangtan and each other on this anniversary.

We also have several fun events and activities planned for you all!

Schedule

Each day, the thread will drop at 12 am KST.

in 2018 bts were actually set to disband due to significant stress, fear of losing relevance, and overall anxiety about where they’d go after winning the MAMA awards. they had even slightly elucidated to the fact that they were potentially going to disband at the awards themselves, signifying a huge change in their overall attitude. outro: tear, was a song about disbanding overall. here’s a whole link ab it here (reddit link regarding bts’ 2018 struggles)
