BTS’s Official Album Logo Sparks Mixed Reactions
BTS recently announced their long-awaited comeback will take place on March 20th.
In letters sent to ARMY who purchased the Gold membership, the new comeback logo was spotted in the middle.

However, this logo is receiving mixed reactions from fans.

Following the group’s tour announcement, the logo gained attention as it was seemingly confirmed as the official comeback logo. It can be seen on the group’s official comeback website.

It went viral among Korean netizens who felt underwhelmed by the aesthetic.
- “I’m ignoring it.”
- “LOLLLLLLLL”
- “Does anyone know what that concept even is?”
- “I mean, what is it exactly?”
- “It looks like a Japanese restaurant.”
- “Yeah, for real.”
- “Do people seriously still expect good aesthetics from that company?”

However, others have began theorizing about the symbolic meaning of the logo, coming up with various ideas.

these symbols show a journey of change.
the black circles mean pain, confusion, pressure, and feeling incomplete. the cracks and broken parts show emotional hurt, while the lines and patterns show struggle, or outside forces affecting you. but NOTHING is fully destroyed, only… pic.twitter.com/x31a7Gwh73— Jiri⁷ (@cypherrrpartV) December 31, 2025
This logo? Is it the album title, maybe? It kind of feels similar to the wordplay they used with HYYH (화양연화) back in the day 🥹
このロゴ?アルバムのタイトルなのかな?過去の화양연화(ㅎㅇㅇㅎ)の文字遊びと似てる気がする🥹 pic.twitter.com/xPTag0ee6x

My interpretation of the 3 circles in the "Special Message To ARMY" letter:
WE ME US
