RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook spent several months living together in LA in the second half of 2025, working on the album and reconnecting as a group. A documentary following this time will be released on Netflix on March 27. Meanwhile, their first OT7 performance since 2022 will take place on March 21 and be livestreamed on Netflix. The ARIRANG world tour — their first full-scale world tour since pre-COVID — will kick off in April in South Korea before heading to Japan, then across North America, Europe, South America, and Asia, continuing into 2027. The remaining three members, Xiumin, Baekhyun, and Chen remain locked in a legal dispute with label SM and did not appear on the album. And if you're into merch, a buttload of K-Pop Demon Hunters toys and accessories will also be released this year. March: Everglow, AB6IX, Big Ocean, Woodz, H1-Key, P1Harmony, Yena, and Kickflip.
