Get ready, ARMY! BTS shared with On Air With Ryan Seacrest’s Sisanie and Tanya Rad that they’re full steam ahead despite the global Coronavirus pandemic.
“We will have a new movie coming in September and a concert in October,” the group shared via Zoom. “And, this is not decided yet, but we will have another album later this year so ARMY will be very busy with us. Lots of things happening in the second half of this year.”
The news comes on the heels of the release of their album Map of the Soul: 7 and their first-ever all-English song "Dynamite." “Dynamite” made history after it became the best-ever 24-hour debut of a music video on YouTube with more than 100 million views.

The South Korean boy band previously announced their new concert film, Break the Silence: The Movie, will be premiering worldwide, via Trafalgar Releasing, for limited screenings beginning September 10. The film, which follows bandmates Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook during last year’s “Love Yourself: Speak Yourself” world tour, will have its official premiere in theaters across the United States starting September 24.
The dates, however, are contingent on local theater reopening schedules due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
BTS is also set to perform virtually during this weekend's VMAs and the star-studded 2020 iHeartRadio Music Festival, which is celebrating 10 years.
