Billboard Highlights BTS’s Full-Group Comeback as a “Symbolic Moment of 2025”

The American music magazine Billboard has paid close attention to BTS’s full-group reunion. In an article titled “Top 10 Most Impactful Musical Moments That Defined Pop Culture in 2025,” Billboard highlighted the scene of BTS members gathering together after completing their military service as a significant issue symbolizing pop culture this year. Additionally, Billboard recently released its “25 Best K-Pop Songs of 2025: Staff’s Picks,” with BTS’s j-hope’s solo single “Killin’ It Girl,” released in June last year, ranking 24th on the list. Billboard described this track as a work that continued global momentum through clear musical choices and high-quality production. According to Billboard’s analysis, j-hope’s distinctive rapping style clearly defined the song’s personality, while the layered sounds building toward the end created an addictive chorus. It also noted that rapper GloRilla’s feature added depth to the track, allowing different personalities to blend naturally. BTS has announced a major world tour alongside the release of new music next spring. During a full-group live broadcast held via the global superfan platform Weverse on the 21st, they said, “Let’s make 2026 BTS’s year. Something really big is coming. It will be an important year,” raising fans’ expectations even further.
