Hi ARMY!
We are sure you wish you were standing next to Jung Kook when this album drops so you can congratulate him and scream about everything this album is, but until then and after: use this thread for all the hype – we want to see all the uwu’, OOOOooooOOOOhhh, squeaks and other written or vocal responses!
All hype is subject to our normal rules, chief amongst them: Respect BTS, other artists, yourself, other users, and other fandoms.
Gigathread and all megathreads will be posted later.

Woohooo been waiting for this debut album since I first heard him talk abt it in 2019! Plans and visions may hv changed but JK is a man on a mission. Loving what we hv seen so far – the MV and track previews, so I’m really excited!
Working fm home tomorrow (like all Fridays)…it will be a challenge to get any work done before the ~~song~~ album n MV drop at 12 noon my time!
IM READYYY (or maybe I just think I am)
LET’S GOOOOO!!!!!
It will be 6 am for me when this drops, so I won’t be up (I work from home so I’ll be getting up at 7.30, sleep is precious to me!) but I’ll be playing this as soon as I have a free moment. Very excited for our pop boy’s first album. It’s going to be a smash!
I’m especially excited for Hate You because I love sad ballads and because he specifically singled that one out in that little press video thing he did.
