BTS is celebrating in style with the launch of the ‘2025 BTS FESTA’. They’re marking their 12th debut anniversary, and the festivities are filled with humor, heartfelt messages, and creative storytelling aimed at connecting with fans.
The event started on May 31, 2025, KST, with a self-produced video titled ‘[2025 FESTA] BTS News’. The quirky news broadcast features Jin as the anchor and J-Hope as the field reporter, delivering witty banter that fans love.
This year’s theme, ‘Twelve O’Clock,’ references their track ‘00:00 (Zero O’Clock)’, focusing on new beginnings with ARMY. Jin said, >“It represents the future we’ll walk together with ARMY.”
During a photo shoot, Jin joked, >“The highlight is my face,” to which J-Hope quickly added, >“Absolutely.” The duo hinted at more content to come, but kept it vague with, >“No spoilers.”
An entertaining segment featured a scripted phone call with a fictional 12-year ARMY portrayed by J-Hope. The fan excitedly discussed J-Hope’s upcoming solo concerts on June 13–14, 2025, KST, and Jin’s concert later that month, joking, >“It was so hard to get tickets, my fingers still hurt.” The call ended with a shout of love for BTS.
J-Hope also played a weathercaster predicting “over 30°C” of excitement. He teased that June 13 and 14 would be “6.13°C hotter than usual,” a nod to BTS’s debut date.
While most members are serving in the military, Jin and J-Hope are featured through pre-produced content. The material shows BTS’s commitment to staying connected with ARMY during this time apart.
