According to reports on September 20, KST, all seven members of BTS have renewed their exclusive artist contracts with BIGHIT MUSIC.

RM took the lead and posted a snippet of the contract document on his Instagram. He followed it up with another story dedicated to ARMYs, implying that the reunion everyone is looking forward to in 2025 is all secured.
