While fans anxiously contemplate the possibility of a disbandment, BTS member Suga offered reassurance in episode eight of their docuseries, stating, "We want to put on a great performance, and it's so fun when we meet ARMY. I think we can do 10 more years for just that reason alone." The sentiment echoed by Suga suggests that as long as the fans continue to support them, disbandment is more likely a 'No' than a 'Yes.'

BTS member J-Hope also shared his hopes, stating, "I always hope that BTS can stay as a team and be healthy no matter what awaits us," emphasising the importance of unity and well-being within the group.
