So the much ado was over nothing, Jungkook is not debuting on 14th July or even July at all it seems!!!

Kmedia got it wrong again. If he was debuting on 14th July or even July for that matter, his preorders would have dropped by now, so when is JK debuting? Is it in August or is it Tae who will debut sooner?

Hoping Hybe gives some clarity like they did in the first half of 2023.

Quote from Kitty_Saurus

Who knows? There could be a delay. There's still 2 weeks before July 14 and 4 weeks for the month July. BigHit like to release BTS songs with short notice.

Unless he does a pre release on July 14th, his album is not dropping for sure on 14th, not with just 2 weeks of preorder.

Quote from Ciri

Maybe we will get a pre-realese single on 14th July

Hybe usually announces pre releases 2 weeks before too...also pre release has followed by an album for Jimin, Yoongi and Hobi. I guess we will get some clarity next Monday or Tuesday which is when Hybe usually makes announcements.

I think Hybe should atleast clarify who is next, if nothing else.

Quote from GDMultiFandom

Pretty sure I read somewhere about hybe quarterly report JK comeback is on 3rd Quarter.

It's taehyung New jeans txt for 2nd Quarter.

Too lazy to check where I saw that sorry but it's confirmed by hybe themselves.

Hybe has confirmed nothing, its securities firms which keep spreading their own predictions. And most securities firms had Tae in 3rd quarter and Jk in 4th.

P.S. We are entering the 3rd quarter currently if you consider start of the year from Jan.

Its been 5 years since we were first promised JJK1, feels like a unicorn

Quote from Anpanromane

I know right, I was waiting for it alongside the txt single announcement but it seems less and less plausible.

Eventually a prerelease could be on short notice but apart from the end of july, I don't think the album will be during this month

Yeah Hybe already has their platter full in July with TXT and Newjeans, so even I am unsure if a pre release in july is happening.

They could do an Aug pre release for JK and release his album on his bday on 1st Sept, which is a Friday this year. That would be sweet.

Quote from Ciri

I mean, I belive in what members told us: JK after Yoongi.

My prediction is that on Monday we will get an info about pre-realese on 14th and than we will get an album 2-4 weeks later (depending how long the preorders will be)

Praying this is the case, tired of waiting at 12 am KST..lol.

Quote from allfandomssuck

better to just wait honestly, why demand when the dates were leaked by kmedia?

Wanting some clarity from Hybe is wrong how? Hybe aka Jiwon, the CEO, did confirm Jimin was next in their investor call at the start of the year, so its not like Hybe never clarified based on kmedia rumours.

And kmedia usually gets the dates wrong but gets the member right as in the case of Joon and Jimin. So kmedia is not always wrong. They have actually gotten some BTS comeback dates correct too.

But with the securities firms reports saying the opposite there is confusion and it could lead to another drama of "my faves comeback was delayed due to yours" solo war that broke out during YoonMin's comeback. Because the securities firm reports contradict Kmedia. Hybe can atleast nip it in the bud by giving some clarity.

Quote from allfandomssuck

they'll announce the comeback when the album is ready. kpop stans would not survive western style release.

He mentioned he is gonna be the next to release his mixtape in 2018, be for real when you say we cannot wait when we have been waiting for 5 years now for JJK1...so much for bolded bit
