BTS is back in the spotlight, with all members currently in Los Angeles working on their highly anticipated comeback album. Excitement is running high among fans, and J-Hope has only amplified the buzz
by sharing a series of photos and videos from the U.S. His social media updates offer a glimpse into behind-the-scenes moments from recording sessions and daily life.
One video, in particular, has grabbed everyone’s attention: a short clip featuring Charlie Puth in a recording studio alongside Jungkook and J-Hope. While no official confirmation has been made, the video has fueled speculation that a surprise collaboration may be in the works.
A Surprise Guest
In one of the clips shared by J-Hope, Charlie Puth is seen playfully spinning a fidget spinner, sparking laughter among the BTS members. Jungkook couldn’t stop smiling as J-Hope captured the lighthearted moment on camera. Beyond the studio, J-Hope also offered fans a glimpse into their off-duty adventures, from beach walks to skydiving. Adding a quirky personal touch, he shared a close-up shot of Labubu keychains hanging on their bags and even included a fun Labubu personality test in his post.

Charlie Puth And Jungkook’s Past Collaborations
Charlie Puth has teamed up with BTS before. He and Jungkook worked together on the track Left and Right, which became a big hit around the world. The song came out shortly after the boy band’s emotional Festa 2022 dinner, where the group talked openly about taking a break and focusing on solo work. That time was special for the members, as they were preparing for military service.
BTS completed their mandatory military service in June 2025, and since then, they’ve been back in action. From live streams to solo events, the members have been keeping fans engaged. J Hope, who completed his service last year, recently wrapped up his solo tour Hope On Stage, which kicked off in February 2025 and took him to several cities across South Korea, North America and Asia. Along with the tour, the singer also dropped two fresh singles, Mona Lisa and Killin’ It Girl.
Now that all seven members are back, fans are eagerly waiting to see BTS perform together again.
