BTS are officially back on their variety grind. A new teaser for Run BTS! shows all seven members in Toronto playing picnic classics like speed walk and red light green light before things escalate into a full pickleball tournament. The clip keeps one big secret: the losing team faces a punishment, and nobody’s saying what it is yet. It wraps with a Run BTS 2.0 title card, so fans are getting more than a comeback, they’re getting a relaunch.
The timing lines up with a huge stretch for the group. BTS just closed out the North American leg of their ARIRANG World Tour, and the ARIRANG album gave them their seventh No. 1 on the Billboard 200, spending 27 weeks on the chart. Rather than disappear after the tour, they’re giving fans brand new group content, which is exactly what the fandom ordered.
New episodes premiere at 8 p.m. KST on Oct. 6 and Oct. 11, so there’s not long to wait. Which member do you think ends up on the wrong side of that punishment? Sound off in the comments.
