After the excitement of this earthshaking news settles, our hosts look back on some of the milestones we experienced last year. With the 10th anniversary of HTTH, Jin’s solo tour, Jung Kook’s documentary, Fashion Week, the Happy Meal, and so many solo lives, this year allowed fans numerous opportunities to get to know the individual members of BTS on a deeper level.
Just like your favorite band, your favorite podcast had some major milestones too! We upgraded our recording equipment, completed our long running Ship Series, and finally got to do an entire episode on HYBE. Kayla moved to a new city, started a new job, and read more books than she has in a long time. Bethany did some traveling, celebrated her baby’s first birthday, and even ran a 10k!
Our hosts then turn to making predictions about the year of BTS and setting goals for themselves in 2026. They offer teases of future episode subjects and emphasize their excitement for new music, doubling down on their desire to catch BTS this year on their world tour. Join us as we take one last look at 2025 together and usher in a brand new era with the long-awaited year of BTS!
